Asunto: Brasil 2014
yeah, right in the only 10 seconds I got up going to the refrigerator! grrrr....
now Uruguay is losing 2-0 and they are playing even more violent and dirty than they normally do...
Is James Rodriquez really pronounced Hames Rodriquez or are estonian commentators a bit retarded?
It would, in Spanish, but he just has an English name :P So for us he's just James Rodríguez.
I don't truly know how Colombians pronounce it, though, but I'd be surprised if it was "Hames"
I mean, it would be like saying "Hackson Martínez" :P

You're wrong, my friend: I'm not whining... just stating the facts.
For quite some minutes Uruguayans were - if possible - more violent than usual.
All in all 2 enjoyable matches to watch... 4 South American teams showed pretty good football and a lot of intensity... bad luck for Chile with the crossbar + post... and a fantastic first goal for Colombia...
frankly I think Uruguay did better tonight than against Italy, with a very organized Colombia...
I'm eager to see Brazil - Colombia!

I had enough "Italians play dirty" BS to start now with "Uruguayans play dirty" BS. Whatever.
but I'd be surprised if it was "Hames"
I've watched the game with british commentators and they called him "Hames" all the time... so it could be, strange, but... :/

I don't know... I haven't read about that...

Anyone trying to pronounce proper Spanish would say Hames :P
But now they were interviewing Pekerman and I think the Colombian journalist said "Hames" as well (the simultanous translation didn't let me hear well), so maybe they "Spanishized" (?) the name. We'll have to ask them ;)

Looked some inteviews on YouTube and actually they call him "Hames"... O_o
so it really should be that... quite strange, but...

J in James is same as j in jalapeno. Spanish is one of world languages and pronuncation of j is minimum which should realy everybody learn. The more confusing is habit of some South American footballers to get names after famous foreign footballers. That way should be pronuncation of James etc different.
