I remember getting lambasted at the National by this old coot about my pronounciation of Christy Mathewson. I've always just called him Mathew-son. This fella who was about 125 years old told me that EVERYONE knows his surname is pronounced Math-eson. I will admit until only 5-6 years ago I would have called it a 1933 Goo-dee La-joy.
