The new documentary highlighting the rise and fall of Patriots Tight End Aaron Hernandez has been turning some heads.

Also, Al brings up the topic of both Mark Dantonio and Tom Izzo receiving bonuses for their coaching contributions over time and the reasons behind the bonuses. To close out the show, Al features a sound byte of Michael Jordan scoring 64 points against the Orlando Magic on this date in 1993 for Throwback Thursday, and featured some other important sports moments that happened on January 16th.
