Your way maybe how it's pronounced in original Italian, but the NFL Zampeses (Ernie and Ken) pronounce it pee-zee.
See, that's the thing that's always bothered me; Americans completely distort and get pronunciations wrong (yes, Ken an Ernie are American, so they're guilty too).
His name is "Fah-vre," not "Fawhrve." Its "Cheh-chill-yah-nee," not "Seh-sill-ee-ah-nee." (for MLB putifelder Darrell Cecilliani).
In a slight variation of what Homer Simpson says:
Homer: "There's the right way, the wrong way and the Homer Simpson way."
Lisa: "Isn't that the wrong way?"
Homer: "yeah, but faster!"
Just sub "American," for Homer and you've got the right dialogue.
So no, we're right, a random, incorrect website is, well, wrong.
Anywys, I'm done on my mini-rant, disregard
