You gotta like Aikman
I've always liked this guy even though he played for a team Redskins fans despise. A man of his word.

Re: You gotta like Aikman
Can't say many people would do the same thing. The guy is easily the best TV man right now, too.

Re: You gotta like Aikman
Can anyone picture Troy Aikman sitting in a class taking a final exam and having the "I-have-a-concussion" Troy Aikman face on him? LOL.

Re: You gotta like Aikman
Troy was one of the few people I respected on the old Boy's team(the little I remember). Always a professional and standup guy. Plus he is great on TV, unbias and insightful.
Same can't be said about JT, the real JT.

Re: You gotta like Aikman
I assume I'm the only dissenting opinion here?
Is anyone old enough to remember their super bowl years of the early nineties? I guess I'll abstain from a detailed opinion on this guy but safe to say I don't like him and certainly won't be gushing over him. Also what kind of non-story is Aikman getting his degree 20 years too late? The only reason this story is interesting is if you give Aikman more pats on the back than he already has. Nice guy or whatever, I still don't like him no matter how much he or this media source tries.
