Yeah I know the rest of the world (except Myanmar I think?) thinks we in the US are weird for not using the metric system but what about a few of our major sports (baseball and American football and basketball)?  You know, the yards in football, the bases 90 feet apart in baseball, the basket rim 10 feet high and the free throw line 15 feet away?  And these have all been true for well over 100 years...you can't just suddenly uproot these kinds of things ya know?  And instead of mileage, would we have to call it kilometerage?
