Theis is pronounced like "Tice". It begins just like "type" or "tight", and ends just like "ice" or "mice."

Im thinking of KFC everytime I hear his name.
Given the amount of playing time that he is likely to get, this thread could end up spending more time discussing his name than the announcers will for the entire season.Mike
