Monday's A.M. Hot Clicks: Sunny Fae; Alex Rodriguez and His Centaur

So Long, A-Rod
(and yes, a Centaur is included).
Olympics Round-Up
Michael Phelpsand Katie Ledecky had a very good day in Rio on Sunday ... U.S. Swimmer Ellie King called out a Russian swimmer for "drug cheating," and that's not even the best swimming PED rivalry story from the weekend ... Johnny Weir and Tara Lipinskibrought a lot of clothes to Rio ... Klay Thompson and Jimmy Butlershowed off their football skills ... What are those weird spots on some athlete's bodies? ... Here's the medal count after two days ... Emily Ratajkowski is one reason to cheer for the U.S. squad.
WWE vs. Conor McGregor
It all started with a simple conference call question by SI's Justin Barrasso to Conor McGregor about performing in the WWE. McGregor answered by insulting the entire WWE locker room. They responded exactly as you'd expect a bunch of pro wrestlers to respond when threatened by someone half their size.

NFL Screws Up
The NFL's annual Hall of Fame Game was canceled due to unsafe playing conditions. NFL players then went on Twitter to discuss this turn of events.
Congrats, Ichiro
Ichiro Suzuki reached 3,000 career hits and can thank Barry Bonds (of all people) for helping reach the milestone. I recommend reading this 2002 SI profile of Ichiro during his early days with the Mariners. It's worth 10 minutes of your time.
The Girl of a Thousand Faces
This is both really cool and really freaky. More freaky than cool though.
What the F?
