| 0:18.9 | I'm Bruce Feldman, joined as always by Stuart Mandel. |
| 0:22.6 | Stu, before we get to talking about some football, let's talk about what we like to eat during |
| 0:27.2 | football games. The Super Bowl just happened last weekend and any game watching event, whether |
| 0:35.7 | it's the XFL or college football, my go-to is a Trader Joe's |
| 0:40.2 | staple, and that is the sweet potato tortilla chips. Have you had them yet? I'll be honest. I didn't |

| 1:50.0 | He's a senior writer and columnist for the Athletics Detroit site. |
