In today's A.M. Hot Clicks, I posted a classic Gus Johnson video in which he screamed and cackled while calling an Ohio State-Xavier game in the 2007 NCAA tournament. Readers quickly sent e-mails and tweets to tell me that I should've posted "(fill in the blank) video." Since it is the first day of the tournament, and many of us are missing Gus, here are those videos, plus a bonus NFL video.

In Tuesday's A.M. Hot Clicks, I revealed that I've gone to the dark side and now find myself rooting for LeBron James and the Heat. Most of you aren't on board, however, as the poll I ran saw 60 percent of you say that you don't want to see Miami break the NBA record of 33 straight wins. For the people like me, though, who've done a 180 on LeBron, this piece on how James won us over is on point.
