American sports broadcasters now make ridiculous efforts to try and pronounce foreign names like a native would. It's an offshoot of PC and the American obsession with possibly offending someone, as if mispronouncing a foreign name would be offensive - it's really pathetic. So, they'll bend over backwards trying to pronounce some French players name properly then take a break before returning to "Pairis".
