Weekend Hot Clicks: Lily Ermak; best weekend of the NFL season
NFL Roundup
It's the best weekend of the NFL season. Greg Bishop broke down why Aaron Rodgers' Hail Marys keep working, and Tyreek Hill's rise has raised questions how people should feel about his violent history of domestic abuse. Andy already posted the Phil Simms Sounbdoard in Friday P.M. Hot Clicks but you must listen again. Also, Jon Gruden reportedly turned down the Colts, and for the fussy non-playoff fans, here's a 2017 mock draft to argue about.
Australian Open
Reminder of the men's and women's draws and here are predictions, dark horses and matches to watch. Play begins on all courts at 7 p.m. ET on Sunday.
Las Vegas Raiders
It's been a nightmarish few weeks for Raiders fans. First, Derek Carr broke his leg in Week 16. Second, because of Carr's absence (and putrid D), they were embarrassed in their first playoff game since 'Nam. And now the team has taken a big step to leave Oakland, filing relocation paperwork with the league.

Odds and Ends
Nike to release original LeBron sneaker, start retro line ... This $45 million mansion is beyond comprehension ... LaMelo Ball attempted another half-court shot but it didn't go so well this time ... Terrifying: Washington State basketball player was stretchered off after hitting her head on the court ... Miami basketball is wearing sick 1960s throwback uniforms ... A fisherman hooked THREE great white sharks in one day ... Grades for every new NFL head coaching hire.
Wow. Just Wow.
