We have friends who are die-hard Mets fans. Their son, who just turned 17, is one of those obnoxious know-it-alls (not just about baseball, pretty much everything). We were watching the Mets-Yankees play last year and Posada hit a home run and I referred to him by his nickname "Georgie". The son looked at me, rolled his eyes, and said, "It's pronounced Hor-hay."

I wanted to smack the crap out of the kid.
