Yeah, they're close. Totti has always congratulated Del Piero on several occasions through his personal site or media and vice versa. There's mutual respect between the two.
:agree: Since I lived in rome for a while I respect the whole roma team as a whole. Especially Totti, he may be a asshole but at the same way we view del piero is the way the romans view totti. Cept for totti likes to abuse his power sometimes :lol2:

From Wikipedia :D

The pronunciation of certain players' names would change depending upon whether they were performing attacking or defensive duties, such as Roy Aitken being referred to as "Akin" if he made a tackle or clearance. Similarly, Alessandro Del Piero, who was called "Del Piero Togon" on the game, was referred to as "Del Piero Tognon" , followed by a small hiccuping noise when he performed a tackle. Such commentary errors did not take away from the game's appeal, and in fact have given it a cult status amongst many players which means the game is still widely played today.
