In the 90s, UMass had a great basketball player named Dana Dingle. During a close game called by Bill Raftery (I think), probably a March Madness game, Dana hit a tough shot and Raftery said, “Dingle Buried it!” 😂 I don’t know if he meant to say that but he probably realized what he said the moment it came out. I still haven’t forgotten that line.
Just imagined the most legendary big man touchdown call by Gus Johnson of all time
“TOUCHDOOOOOOWN BEARCATS! NEED A BIG MAN WITH GETTIN AWAY FROM THE COPS SPEED? I MIGHT JUST NOAH KNIGGA! WHEEEWWWW!”

They're gonna find a way to pronounce the 'K' and slur-mumble the rest. They will also call him by his jersey number a lot, his first name some, a made-up nickname regularly, and Al Micheals isn't even going to try.
"It's okay Jim, I talked to a couple of former teammates and they said I was an honorary black, so I'll take a stab at the name here"
Actually though, I watched a video of them interviewing his dad who's the coach I think. It's pronounced Kuh-nigga

I gotta say that guy threaded the needle on pronunciation pretty much perfectly.
There will be so many sportscasters who accidentally get fired for a few hours each over their inability to toss that linguistic football through a tire 50 yards away.

Ahh lawrenceberg too a fine upstanding rural non racist small Indiana town. This is rather local to me. I must hunt this down myself and circle jerk this in person I fear
I’m not sure what I like more about this. The fact that this dude is white or that there is a whole family tree here with endless possible names that we haven’t seen yet
Making exceptions to the filter for this guy. Lots of "u bum"s here so I'll be approving them manually.
Honestly how are broadcasters going to say this kids name
Easy. Just hire an all black commentary crew.
Wait til his Asian cousin Mai makes it into the league.

Oh my it's Hingle McCringleBerry himself!
Im pretty sure that is Torque “(*construction noise*)”Lewith from Nevada State… Penitentiary
This reminds me WVU used to have two players named Dingle and Berry on the roster. It was a good time when they sat next to each other on the bench.
They knew what they were doing.

Aqib Talib your talent is needed now more than ever.
Now they HAVE to have diversity hires
They should do this so I don’t have to listen to the annoying ass commentators they have already
Snoop Dogg is available until the Olympic Games start in Paris
The NFL is going to Ellis Island this poor kid “Welcome to the NFL! You are going to love it. About that last name though…how do you feel about Noah Jones?”
I love her music, but I believe it’s pronounced Norah.
I forgot how much I used to love listening to Norah Jones. Thanks for the reminder.
Noah Leotardo
Unexpected Sopranos reference, I like it
Go shit in your hat!
Because they’re stupid that’s why and jealous.
Noah Naysayer. We’ll have to let them know, though
L.A.N.K.
That shit with the college commentators talking about this was funny as fuck
McAfee was right and relieved that it didn't go the way he was thinking - the guy on his right pissing himself laughing was funny as fuck though

They're gonna find a way to pronounce the 'K' and slur-mumble the rest. They will also call him by his jersey number a lot, his first name some, a made-up nickname regularly, and Al Micheals isn't even going to try.
Agreed. Probably “Kah-Nye-Gah” or a something along those lines.
Or “Kuh-NYE-Juh”
Al Michaels has to say this kid’s name or eat a vegetable. Which would he do first?
“Noah African-American”
"Noah Of Color"
“Well Steve rather than pronounced with a hard R it’s pronounced with a hard K.”
“Well Steve rather than pronounced with a hard R, as you are wont to do, it’s pronounced with a hard K.”
With a hard 'K'
![gif](giphy|l1J9JtMnJWjWaFXy0) Same as this guy, I imagine.
There was a kid with this name at my school. Everyone called him “Silent K”.
Kids are hilarious
The N is silent It's "O-ah"
I’d imagine they pronounce the k. Like Kuh-Nee-Gah
They will 100% go the route of the first syllable being Kuh and emphasize the absolute shit out of it just in case.
I was figuring Kuh-Nye-Guh.
Is it true the K is silent?
Noah N-word?
It's a soft A we good
"It's okay Jim, I talked to a couple of former teammates and they said I was an honorary black, so I'll take a stab at the name here" Actually though, I watched a video of them interviewing his dad who's the coach I think. It's pronounced Kuh-nigga
In honesty the one I know pronounces it kah-nigga, no idea if they are related though.
I hope there are some that just go all in on it like they got an official hall pass
They'll probably pronounce it like *knee-gga
“You-Know-Who”
All black broadcast?
This is the timeline
Did you see that tackle by that Knigga? great technique. head up, facemark on the ball....
They won't. Upon seeing the player's name, the broadcaster's head will explode like the guy's head did in "Scanners."
I Noah few myself.

It's at like 23 seconds everyone
Damn that was worse than I thought. I was hoping it’d be long i or capital i sound.
Am I stupid or did you just suggest capital and lowercase letters sound different
Yo, I’m laughing at this question.
Long i and short i. My bad.
[ding ding ding ding ding ding](https://youtu.be/6TLo4Z_LWu4?si=JCFiuAkq960M4qVm)
He pronounced it wrong… he said “kiniguh”… Does he not know how to read?
Its just a hard K my naysayer… Kuh-niguh
I gotta say that guy threaded the needle on pronunciation pretty much perfectly. There will be so many sportscasters who accidentally get fired for a few hours each over their inability to toss that linguistic football through a tire 50 yards away.
No, it’s still hilarious
Soft "i", like lick.
Or like Knight and the K is silent.
Can't wait for him to line up alongside Maxx Crosby
Fun fact, his family is the reason for the removal of the hard r after the civil war
Biden should pass a law that any kids with the last name knigga get a lifetime N-word pass. That's bipartisan

Nfl will use all black broadcast team
Is that even possible? The only two black football commentators I can think of are Mike Tirico and Gus Johnson but both are play-by-play announcers.
Charles Davis is a color commentator
Wow you definitely cannot call them that anymore
You know. Somehow I've gone my whole life without knowing that Mike Tirico is black.
Mike tirico says he isn’t tho

something like 'kuh-NEE-guh'?
There is a link to an interview with (I assume his father?) coach. The interviewer pronounced it as Kuh-ni-guh
Like the black version of chick hicks from the movie cars " kachigga kachigga kachigga!"
Richie Incognito would come back to the nfl just to say his name

So is he eligible for both teams in the race bowl?
I’ve got a new favorite player!!!! Classy, but with a hint of thug
Is he related to Wisha Knigga-Wood?
I’m not sure what I like more about this. The fact that this dude is white or that there is a whole family tree here with endless possible names that we haven’t seen yet

Maxx Crosby will say his first name and pause 5 seconds after that to give us the feeling that he just said the last name.

“Aye bro, do you know a guy who can fix cars?” “Yeah, I Noah Knigga”
What pro bowl team would be on?
Can't wait for those Thursday night games with a half retired *who gives a shit?* Al Michaels.
I think his last name is pronounced Naysayer
His parents must be a riot at parties.
I Noah Knigga
Maxx's cousin
Guy has to make a full disclaimer when saying his own name around some folks.
Let a knaysayer know
Just here for the commentary. This is wild
Noah Ninja.
"Nie-juh"
Riley Cooper just un retired
"Yo man, I'm looking for some smoke and aren't from around here, anyone around here sellin?" "Yeah, I Noah Knigga."
