The pronunciation of "about" seems to change noticeably as you go north. Here in Chicago it's "abowt," but if you get much into Wisconsin and certainly Minnesota, it changes to "aboat." |

If in Goudey pronunciation doubt, it is best if you instead collect Diamond Stars or Batter Up cards.

I think it's been established here before that Goudey is Gow-dee, but I still say Goo-dee regardless
Can't break old habits!Bowman, I don't think I've ever known anyone to suggest any other pronunciation other than Bo-man Lajoie and Cicotte, I've only skimmed this thread, but didn't see anyone reference The Glory of Their Times on tape. On that audio tape, the players said Lazh-a-way and See-cot (I'm pretty sure anyway, it's been a few years since I listened to that) |
