I've been advocating something like this for a while. We might be a few versions away from anything along these lines, but I hope that once the basics are all finally addressed, we'll get some more eye/ear candy.

Of course, we'd need to have some kind of phonetic guide to help the "announcer(s)" pronounce the names of players, teams, nicknames, cities, stadiums, etc., especially considering OOTP's global scope. But I think simply having a field where we could manually enter the phonetic pronunciation of a name (on the player and team profile screens) would be sufficient.

This could be the next step in OOTP's sensory evolution after FaceGen! I definitely think it would add a lot to the in-game experience.
