0:00.0	Welcome back to another Adam Schaefter podcast as we look back on conference championship weekend and begin to look ahead to Super Bowl 57 in Arizona.
0:20.3	And joining us today will be one of the biggest Eagle fans out there.
0:25.5	The future Hall of Fame outfielder, the All-Star baseball outfielder from the California
0:31.9	Angels, Mike Trout, Mr. Eagles fan himself.
0:36.0	And we'll explain why Mike Trout is on talking about the Eagles
0:39.3	in just a moment. But first, the news of the day Tuesday was two teams filling their hey coach

2:18.5	They met with D'Amico Ryans, who they were blown away by.
2:21.8	But they never, ever lost sight of Sean Payton and were focused on getting a deal done with him
2:28.4	that now will make him the head coach of the Denver Broncos.
