Knock off the metric put downs. The metric system is a system of measurement. And it is far superior to the English system.

What are you - the international
PR person for the European Union?
Besides, you're confusing "superior" with "easy". Personally, I enjoy the challenge of the English system. Any trained monkey can understand the metric system. Where's the fun in that?
"Metric" is not just a system of measurement, it's a way of life. The reason we make fun of it is because of the arrogance of FEEBLE in calling themselves the governing body for international basketball. Says who? My association never recognized them. Besides, basketball is a North American sport, invented by a Canadian in the U.S. The Euros should stick to that sport where you can't use your hands and no one ever scores.
And, while we're at it - all the Euro players that come to the NBA should take a side trip to Wheel Of Fortune and buy a few vowels.
As far as I'm concerned, FEEBLE can take their trapazoid and shove it.
OOOOHH - that would hurt.
