Yep, we can discuss football instead, and translate things like ´o***pu hekim´, yeah, I mixed it up once and told a friend her dad yelled ´O***PU HEKÃM´ to the referee (hakem), I should have done that in a crowded sports bar in Turkey=)

If Turkey travelled to Poland for the EuroBasket hoping to build momentum for the FIBA World Championship they are hosting next year, then right now Bogdan Tanjevic´s side is a runaway train.
Having struggled in their Efes Pilsen World Cup, the Turks have discovered the meaning of the word toughness, running roughshod over Group D opponents Lithuania, Bulgaria and hosts Poland in Wroclaw.
On Saturday, they claimed their biggest win in many a year with a 63-60 triumph over Spain in Lodz.
What everyone must be wondering from Ankara to Istanbul, and all the way to Madrid no doubt, is what kind of deal the Turks have made with the devil.

2 m 13 cms. - I don´t know where they hide them all - most Turks I know are barely taller than me!

What do you mean "short legs" ? They all touch the ground, dont they ?

Hey wait a minute. is 7 feet = 2m13cms? How do you calculate it? I thought it would be
7 x 32 = 224 cms, right?

On the other hand, most of the Brits I know are shorter than me and I´m not so tall ( I´m only 1.77).

I googled a conversion chart - but working it out in my head - 7ft = 84" x 2.5 = 210 cms = 2 m 10cm. doesn´t it??

I have to admit I find long legged ladies more attractive. If the legs are there I assume the rest would be there (proportionally) as well.
