Hot Clicks Q&A

Chris Jericho stopped by the SI office last week to promote his new book and I cornered him for a quick game of word association. Time was limited but we discussed various musical acts (R.E.M, Phish, Pearl Jam) and future WWE superstars (Dean Ambrose, Luke Harper). It's a good read for all you pro wrestling fans.

Move over, SungWoo Lee. My new favorite Royals fan is this guy who spent over $300 buying hot dogs for his section at Tuesday night's World Series game.

Bad Idea Jeans

Should Notre Dame change its 'Fighting Irish' nickname? That's the contention of a man who launched a petition on change.org to request "the University of Notre Dame stop using the ‘Fighting Irish’ as their mascot. This name, which degrades the Irish people as ‘drunken, fighting, vile, less-than-human brutes’, is not only an insult to a specific group of people, but common decency as a whole.” As of 2:30 p.m., the petition had one (yes, just one) signature. And in case you were wondering, this was the inspiration for the 'Bad Idea Jeans' headline.
