If it's not the swim suits then it's freaking scary. Five teams broke the old world record on the 4*100..

I miswrote on the first post, here is what I mean.
1) Worldwide popularity - In terms of how popular the sport is worldwide, by the measure of how many countries have a strong fan base for it, cycling wins, Spain, France, Italy, Britain, USA, etc., etc. That is much better than the Baseball fan base of the USA, Japan, and Mexico.
2) Individual popularity - In terms of how many individuals of fans of the sport, Baseball takes the cake there, by virtue of the the popularity of the sport in both America and Japan, along with their much greater size. |

I have a puzzle for you then: If most of Europe, most of South America, bits of Africa, half of Australia, bits of China and India, a hint of Saudi Arabia and the U.A.E and some minor blobs in Asia likes soccer. And Japan, Mexico, Canada and USA likes baseball. What sport is more popular? And dont come back with a two-pronged answer.

I can prove that 2=1 if you like.

Yes I did, but I created two different definitions, so if you want me to only answer using one definition, define which one |

My point was in general, not just with this....and yes, math doesn't lie, but who is to say that math is right to begin with?

the point is: math doesn't lie. But math just shows the results, it doesn't interpret them. What you all are doing are interpreting the results. And interpretations, well, you can interpret anything whichever way you want.

1) No, I learned it from my psychiatrist (explains a lot, doesn't it). And i'm not pretentious isso, look at a dictionary:
pretentious |priˈten ch əs|
adjective
attempting to impress by affecting greater importance, talent, culture, etc., than is actually possessed : a pretentious literary device.
How do you know that I'm faking, believe me, i'm not |

That was sort of the way I was going, not exactly, but sort of. Just couldn't explain it well enough.
