Geoff and Mitchell Schwartz are the NFL’s most improbable pair of offensive linemen. They started their football careers late, not playing a down of organized football until they joined their low-key high school program. Despite all that, they wound up at top-tier college programs and became the first Jewish brothers in the league since 1923.In Eat My Schwartz, Geoff and Mitch talk about the things that have made them the extraordinary people that they are: their close-knit and supportive family, their Jewish faith and traditions, their love of the game and drive for excellence and, last but not least, the food they love to eat, whether at home or on the road. Theirs is an inspiring story not just for every football fan but for everybody wanting to figure out what it takes for dreams to come true―and how to stay well-fed throughout the process.

As a Grandfather who played sports most of his life… and is also a proud “lantsman”… I looked forward to getting and reading this book. While I greatly enjoyed the story told in a wonderfully divided M.C. type approach by each loving brother… there is one statement/belief… stated by Geoff… that I totally disagree with… and am actually hurt and disappointed in him… regarding upholding and fully respecting what is to me one of the most important Jewish responsibilities and honors… that any Jewish adult… who are role models to their younger family members… let alone someone who has the added power and responsibility of a national stage. But… more on that at the end of my review. (Very important to note… and it will be repeated for reinforcement later… this one belief.. WILL NOT EFFECT MY OVERALL REVIEWER RATING.The life story of brothers Geoff and Mitch Schwartz… details a wonderful loving Jewish family that winds up creating the first two Jewish brothers to play in the NFL since 1923. The prior Jewish siblings played on the same team… whereas… Geoff and Mitch played on different teams… and thus… in Kansas City… on October 27, 2013… when the Cleveland Browns played the Kansas City Chiefs in Kansas City… the first ever NFL game pitting Jewish brothers against each other commenced. It will forever be known as “THE SCHWARTZ BOWL”! I can only imagine the pride… the love… the tears… by all members of the Schwartz family. After the game… with the family on the field to take pictures for posterity… the blessed parents are thinking… “THESE ARE OUR SONS!”And in one of the most poignant statements in the book… Mitch writes…. “I’M A GROWN MAN, BUT I’M ALSO STILL A SON. YOU KNOW WHAT NEVER GETS OLD? HEARING THAT YOUR PARENTS ARE PROUD OF YOUR ACHIEVEMENTS.” Amen Brother!
