Class of 2010 Pronunciation Guide?

Ok, so how do you pronounce some of those names? Drew Dileo - DILL-ee-oh or dil-AY-oh Will Hagerup - HAG-er-up or HAY-ger-up Davion Rogers - DAY-vee-on or DAY-vee-un Ray Vinopal - VIN-uh-pull or VIN-uh-pall Conelius Jones - coh-NEE-lee-us or cor-NEE-lee-us (ok, that one was just for fun) The rest seem pretty straightforward. BONUS! Player name puns - any bets on how long it will take for an on-air personality to break out the "(Carvin) Johnson carvin' a niche in the secondary" joke?

but it bugs the heck out of me when someone gets my name wrong - how you misspell or mispronounce my last name, which is a common 4 letter word (and not of the dirty variety) is beyond me - so I always make sure i get other people's names right. just the other day, I corrected a client who mispronounced my colleague's last name! so what can I say - I split hairs and I ain't changin'. ;)
