    You are correct on the pronunciation. W has a V pronunciation and vice versa in Slavic languages.

    We can dub him "Vlod the Impaler"

    I grew up with two grandmothers who always talked about vater and winegar. To me it's almost natural to switch them around.

    I am curious about this one too. I was thinking Vlaw-DAR-chick.

    I had also thought about that later after I posted the first time. You could be right too. Main thing is that the W is pronounced as a V

    I want to put the accent on the 1st syllable (VLAWD-r-Chick) but that is purely a guess. I hope we all get REALLY familiar with his name and we get to watch video of the other team try to pronounce his name as we approach Frisco.

    I have a co-worker who is from the Czech Republic. Although Wlodarczyk is Polish, here's what he thought the phonetic pronunciation is:

    vlo-darr-zeek

    It will be certainly be interesting to see how its pronounced.
