Very funny Mark - since you're having a friendly (I hope) dig at us metric FEEBLE referees - it's my turn to have a laugh at the expense of Americans:

- George Dubya Bush (do I need to say any more?)
- Heston and the NRA - when you have a high school shooting, don't ban guns, give teachers guns! (Great idea!)
- Calling your NBA, Baseball, Football (etc) competition winners "World Champions" last time I checked world championships were (by definition) open to all countries - not one or two!

And that's just a starting point

Personally, I don't think appreciate your remarks about our country. Poking fun at the Metric System or a basketball association is one thing. You don't read any remarks from us about Australia. Of course, we can start.

1- For your information, it's George W. Bush. You may think it's fun to joke about him but he's held our country together over the past 8 months. Who's the President of Australia right now, hmmmm?
2- There are people with different opinions everywhere. It's a very, very small percentage of Americans who would support teachers having guns. But whether we agree with it or not, they have a right to express that view.
3- World Champions are the best at what they do. Considering that the NBA Champion is the best basketball team in the world, why shouldn't they be considered World Champions? Or haven't you noticed that the players in the world outside of the USA are coming to the NBA to play?

You may not like us, but the world would be a hell of a place without us.
