Thursday's Hot Clicks: Stay Away From College Cheerleaders. They Might Have The Mumps

College cheerleaders are in midst of a mumps scare. There are over 23,000 women at risk.

Warning: A bunch of college cheerleaders have the mumps

Over 25,000 cheerleaders and coaches descended on Dallas last month for the National Cheerleaders Association All-Star National Championship. All of them are now at risk for the mumps after it was discovered that someone who took part in the competition now has the virus. And no, the Oregon cheerleaders pictured above don't have them. I just needed a group shot so I used an old Cheerleader of the Week gallery.

Prince turns Carlos Boozer's house purple

I've been enjoying SI's new HOLDAT podcast with Carlos Boozer and Nate Robinson, who are much more entertaining than I first expected. Anyhow, during yesterday's show, Boozer finally told the full story of when Prince rented his L.A. house for a season and transformed it purple. It's a great story and made me like Prince even more.

Odds & Ends

Good piece on yesterday's big Twitter spat involving Bill Simmons, J.J. Watt and others ... A triathlete was attacked by three guys with chainsaws (and they tried to cut his legs off) ... ESPN's Wright Thompson wrote a great profile of Ichiro ... The 2018 NFL free agent class isn't that impressive ... Matt Leinart had a nice comeback to this Twitter insult ... ​Kelly Obure Jr. is the latest NBA player to speak up about depression and mental health ... Richard Sherman appears to be on his way out of Seattle ... Dwyane Wade visited Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School students ... Nothing like a near brawl after a garbage time dunk ... So bummed Jerry Jones caved and paid the NFL $2 million for fighting Roger Goodell ... The NYPD is about ready to arrest Harvey Weinstein ... The sons of Greg Allman and Dicky Bettsare now touring together.
