CHICAGO — How hot are the Chicago Cubs?

Or maybe how hot is Cubs manager Joe Maddon?

Sounds like a question for Google.

The search engine company this summer released some of the more popular questions people ask about the Cubs.

The top question on Maddon that week in July was related to being booted from a game by umpire Joe West:

1. Why was Joe Maddon ejected? (Reportedly because the umpire thought he was stalling to allow his pitcher more time to warm up.)

2. How old is Joe Maddon? (62)

3. What team did Joe Maddon play for? (Never played in the majors.)

4. How tall is Joe Maddon?  (5'11)

5. Is Joe Maddon married? (Yes, to Jaye Sousoures, since 2008. It's the second marriage for both. "I'm way over my skis with her," he says.)

The two met in 1995 at a Southern California health club where she worked and he was a coach for the Los Angeles Angels. "Friendship blossomed into romance years later after their marriages broke up. The two had a lot in common: They were geeks about fast cars, sports and high-tech toys. It was kismet," according to a 2012 profile.
