seems like an odd way to measure something.. using a rate rather than a quantity doesn't really give you a clear picture of what exactly happened, unless also given the time frame.. but if that is given then why not just a quantity.. so yeah..

Yeah that's stupid, made even less impressive by the part where they say it barely even beat Beyonces pregnancy announcement.

How is Beyonce's pregnancy announcement related to a sports event?
