Where Was The Editor?

From today's Philadelphia Inquirer:
"Rice also said she believes the NFL could have mass appeal in places such as Britain, Germany and Australia at some point in the future. She suggested that the league not expand to places where they also play cricket."
This makes no sense.  Because it's not a direct quote, I'm not sure if it's Rice or Bob Brookover who got it wrong - but cricket was basically invented in England and the first test cricket match was played by England and Australia.  I know the Inquirer is struggling financially, but this is just careless.  Either careless because of their own error, or careless because of the error of omission in not pointing out the problem with Rice's statement.
