RICK SANCHEZ PERFORMS ACCORDING TO EXPECTATIONS.

UPDATE: Reader Sam Dunkin writes: “I learned metric back in the ’60s studying physics. I’ll bet a LOT of people across this country don’t understand metric measurements. And as a good newscaster, (don’t know him, but presume he’s competent) he should get an English measurement figure for those folks.” Well, possibly, though I doubt he would extend the same courtesy . . .

ANOTHER UPDATE: Reader C.J. Burch isn’t impressed: “A meter is about a yard. That ain’t hard to remember and Sanchez isn’t a good journalist.”
