| 0:00.0 | Hi and welcome to today's word of encouragement from your friends at Our Daily Bread. |
| 0:11.8 | Our writer for today is Marvin Williams, and the devotional is Not Holding Grudges. |
| 0:19.3 | During a promotional event in 2011, two 73-year-old former Canadian Football League players |
| 0:28.1 | got into a fist fight on stage. |
| 0:31.0 | They had a beef, a grudge or feud, dating back to a controversial championship football game |
