It's not very often that I get to lead Hot Clicks with an NFL-themed romance story—much less two—but that seems to be our situation right now.

Meanwhile in England, a diehard Miami fan named got married in his Dolphins helmet

Brent Musburger still isn't sure why his 2013 comments about Katherine Webb, where he "called a beauty queen beautiful," became such a big story. I'm not sure either but two weeks after his comments, I was at a studio with Katherine while she stripped down to a bikini for SI Swimsuit, so it worked out for me.

Lovely Lady of the Day

CJ Franco has never been featured in Hot Clicks before and that's a really bad job by me. I apologize. She is today's LLOD (click for full-size gallery).
