0:00.0	Because we did two huge trade podcasts with Bill for the NBA deadline, the
0:15.3	NBA deadline. This podcast will be a little brief but I'm going to give you my
0:20.1	Super Bowl picks in a preview with Troy Aikman. He's going to tell some great
0:23.8	stories from his days with the Cowboys. He's always a lot of fun we have them on.
