MayBe Twellman is just from St Louis where they talk like that.Twellman is irritating to my ear. For some reason, it drives me nuts when soccer commentators don't pronounce "-ing" and instead say shootin' and passin', and Twellman is a major offender. Also, he is a douche on Twitter. As for Lalas, he is very opinionated, and that gets him into trouble. I prefer him to Taylor.
Friedel, hopefully, will shake that fake British accent of his. Ugh.
