aerosmith67 Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 On the Maddenless NFL 2009 line of questions on Jeopardy last night Tony G was an Answer/Question last night. The answer was something along the lines of this long time Kansas City Tight End joined the Falcons for the 2009 season. It was fun to see the team get some exposure on a show like that but Alex Trebek SUCKS at pronouncing FALCONS, he said it more like FAULCANS. (I know that's a proper way of saying it but it still sounded awful) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Ryan = Trent Edwards Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 His annunciations on a lot of words are annoying. I didn't see the show, but can here him saying Faulcans like you wrote it... Did you mean enunciation? Nice try though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tandy Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Did you mean enunciation? Nice try though.Perhaps he meant articulations or pronunciations? Who knows - the message was delivered either way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

faninwpg Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 I believe he is Canadian and falcon is pronounced that way here. Apparently we talk goofy up here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UnrealfalcoN Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 lol makes me look like I am ignorant about my own team when educated people say FAHLCANS...makes me think I was wrong all these years.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently we talk goofy up here.That is a proper pronunciation but it just didn't sound right. Either way the word doesn't matter the point of this thread is that the Falcons were on Jeopardy.

Matt Ryan = Trent Edwards Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 You've been a member of this board for 3 days and you have a negative 30 reputation.. wow.It's because I actually give my honest opinion. I don't front load a negative post by talking about how long I've been a fan, or how much I love Matt Ryan. Just honesty. That doesn't go over well here.

21 Falcon Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Did you mean enunciation? Nice try though.Yup, that's what I meant, I just spelled it wrong.Aren't you the guy who asked for his donation back because people were picking on you?Nice job....donate to needy kids then ask for it back because people hate you and pick on you.

That doesn't go over well here.You signed on to the boards to trash our starting QB, you're not a Falcon fan, and you just in general seem to be a window licker. That is why you have a negative rating. BTW, I haven't -1'd you yet.... just being honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't me. I didn't donate at all. I would send my money direct to the charity, I wouldn't just give it to some stranger on a message board.
