0:00.0	Welcome to the Sports Media Podcast. I'm your host, Richard Dyche. My producer is Patrick Antonetti. First, happy new year. Welcome to 2020. Thank you so much for continuing to be with this podcast, which is now,
0:23.3	I have to check the math on this, but it has been going in this form for seven years.
0:29.5	And then if you want to include my Sports Illustrated years, I've been doing a podcast now for
0:34.6	about a decade, which is crazy. One of my, maybe the most favorite thing I do.

1:52.2	The Sugar Bowl, which was canceled for postponed for a day.
1:58.5	So the result of this game will be known when you're listening to this.
2:01.9	But they postponed the game as they should have at the Superdome.
2:05.3	The city, of course, had drawn tens of thousands of people who were in New Orleans to watch that game.
2:12.1	The Superdome is very, very close to Bourbon Street.
2:14.7	I think I've been there many times and my memory service is within a mile or so. And so we certainly wish that city and all the people who were
