Yes, you read that right. No, the topic isn’t confined to sports. In its annual list of the world’s 50 greatest leaders, Fortune has one Theo Nathaniel Epstein in the top spot.
Is the hype of the capturing the most mythically impossible task in American sports, if not all of worldwide competition, driving this a little bit?

To be fair, the list does skew heavily toward pop culture.
