Paige Spiranac & former Peloton instructor show women how to tee a golf ball, NHL fan fight & dump dinners

Thank you, Paige

Ladies, have you been wondering how to tee up a golf ball? You're in luck, Paige and her playing partner have created a step-by-step lesson plan.

I have to give credit to Paige. She spent years as OutKick's No. 1 ranked golf influencer in the world, but the content was just Paige in some costume and it started to get old. Once she started doing this playing partner thing where she leans into just being Paige, giggling, dropping innuendo jokes and having fun, the content HAS POPPED.

PAIGE SPIRANAC NEEDS TO EMBRACE FULL INTEGRITY GOLF AFTER PUTTING INCIDENT, TRUMP'S NEW HIRE & DITKA!

The formula seems to be rather simple: Create content that neanderthals will share in their golf group chats.

"Good girls bend at the knee, bad girls bend at the hip . . . Or something like that . . . might be the other way round," some guy named Rich, who's clearly in a golf group chat, wrote on Instagram.

By the way, that's Kendall Toole, the former Peloton instructor golfing with Paige. I'm sure some of you who rode a stationary bike during COVID remember her.

I deserve an IMDb entry after doing this voice work for the Cal McCallister show

In case you've been in a coma, OutKick's Matt Reigle created this show and has been using OutKick talent to voice many of the characters. In this episode, my voice talent is on display. Give it a watch and rate my performance.

Speaking of OutKick coworkers, I have to give props to OutKick senior WNBA writer (I gave him that title; it's not an official role) Dan Zaksheske for this single piece of content

This is about as perfect as it gets and shows exactly what it's like to be an OutKick outsider going into many of these environments where the Big Js and the team media staffs absolutely despise you. But, someone has to do it.

Dump Dinners: Are the Millennial parents doing this stuff so they can collect 'Likes' on social media or is it to actually have fun with the kids?

I'm on the fence here. Part of me feels like this would be fun with toddlers who are a complete mess anyway, why not let them go wild. The other part of my brain tells me this is just another dopamine hit for Millennial parents who want to throw this content on Instagram so their yuppie friends smash that like button.

• Kevin F. in Naples, FL writes: Food that is hard to screw up? Nachos. A sign of a bad restaurant is when their nachos are terrible.

Kinsey: Hold up, nachos are screwed up at an astounding rate. In fact, a few years ago, I told Mrs. Screencaps that there wasn't a single place within 20 miles of our house that can do nachos correctly.

Burning shredded cheese onto chips isn't nachos. I got to the point where I couldn't even trust the Mexicans to produce a legit plate of nachos. I get where Kevin's going here, but they're easy to screw up because these places don't put in the effort.

• Kevin in Frederick checks in: Checking out the site and the Astros chick made me think about the ALCS and WS. I had to jump on the 4 letter website to see where the ALCS stood - the World Series starts Friday, after all, right? Just checked, and apparently it's over (Go Rays!). Didn't even know.

RAYS PUNCH THEIR TICKET TO THE WORLD SERIES, TAKING DOWN GUARDIANS IN GAME 6 TO SET UP SERIES WITH BREWERS

It serves MLB right to have to show the Trop for at least 2 games. Place is a soulless sh–box unlike American Family Field (aka Miller Park). Would cheer for the Brewers if Uke was still kicking it. Would love to hear him call a WS for the home team.

Never really been a MLB fan since the days of the Cubs afternoon games interrupting the 3:00 PM - 4:00 PM window of Scooby Doo and Tom and Jerry - stupid Cubs.

Pulling for TB, (another fan base that does not deserve a title) as I lived there while Sapp was playing. He was always a jerk. His philosophy was always he wouldn't take pics or sign anything because someone would be left unhappy - so he just made everyone unhappy. At least he was consistent.

Finally, The WNBA finals fix is in!. Atlanta beats GSV on the road and gets 15 more FT's than the home team? The WNBA decided they've got the chance to ride the Angel Reece train and they are gonna do just that - by any means possible. This is going 7 games for sure...and crowning her as the new face of the WNBA. Can't promote CC over a WNBA champ can you?

• Greg writes on the world of fast-food buffets: KFC has a good all-u-can-eat buffet here in Tallahassee.

• CF in Kansas tells me: We went to Wendy’s drive-thru the other day and "lo and behold!" there was an older lady working the window.  We had a smooth experience for a welcome change.  Perhaps that Wendy’s manager reads your column and was smart enough to take your advice.  Bring back the old ladies!!!!!!

Kinsey: Thank you for this report, CF. The quicker Wendy's rids itself of the meth addicts and prison-release system workers, the sooner this brand restores order. Now, I'm concerned that too much damage has been done, but it's a great step. Remember how Cracker Barrel created an unnecessary mess with that whole logo change idea from the Rachel Maddow ripoff CEO? She learned a valuable lesson, left and now look at the stock: It hit $69/share this week.

Bring back the Superbar. Fire the meth addicts. I'd even sell monthly Superbar subscriptions. VIP lines like you're waiting for a ride at Cedar Point. You know what Chick-fil-A doesn't have? A f'ing SUPERBAR! DO IT, WENDY'S!

• Greg shares his experience with Warren Sapp: I graduated Univ of Miami in 1978 and have been a huge Cane fan since 1974, my first year on campus.   I don’t recall the exact year but it was likely around 2004,  I was returning back to Florida from Nassau, and Warren Sapp was on the same plane.  After we landed,  I was standing in the terminal with some Cane fans who just wanted to shake his hand and perhaps get a picture.  He could not have been more UNFRIENDLY AND RUDE as he ungraciously denied their request.  I knew from that moment on that despite being a great football player, he was a lousy human being.  It is no wonder you don’t see too many endorsement deals for this miserable person.

How to sync your TV to NFL radio broadcasts

– Tom T. says: Finally! You are covering a topic on which I am an expert. I have been listening to NFL home team broadcasts synced with the TV since Sonny & Sam were calling the Washington REDSKINS back in the 80's and 90's. Back then, over the air AM radio was already synced perfectly with cable TV, so all we had to do was mute the TV and turn on the Technics receiver pre-tuned to 960 AM.

Nowadays, I listen to the skins on BIG100 out of DC, over the Internet. It is normally about 60 seconds ahead of the cable TV broadcast, so I have to pause TV1 AND pause TV2, which shows Redzone channel. I usually sync on the opening kickoff. I also have to avoid looking at my fantasy football scoreboard until commercial breaks, so I can remain in the 60 second "cone of silence".

A funny thing happens around 5pm, however. At that time, BIG100 starts telling me that I am out of the authorized listening area, so for 4pm or night games, I have to rely on an NFL+ subscription, which runs about $13 per month to listen to any game.

Most of the time, everything stays synced up, but occasionally it is necessary to re-sync. If you can handle that, it is the BEST way to watch your favorite team. I was travelling for work on Monday, and I ended up watching the second half on mute, because I was sooooooo tired of Buck and Troy sucking up to Kyle Shanahan and talking about how much the REDSKINS stink..... I can't handle the truth.

Kinsey: I'm still not hearing how you sync the broadcast with the radio when the radio is running ahead of the video stream. Are you guys pausing the radio broadcasts for a set amount of time? Have you determined the exact amount of delay the TV stream is on and then you use some sort of counter to get this stuff perfectly synced?

– Steve C. in Kentucky writes: You have to delay and pause both the tv and radio apps then sync them by myself.  After a while it is pretty easy.

That should be more than enough content to get the juices pumping on a Thursday morning. The sun is still out here in Ohio. The weather has been absolutely phenomenal. I'm talking 69, sunny, no wind, no clouds. Just amazing for this time of year which means we're probably going to get pummeled in about seven days.

Anyway, let's enjoy life. Let's get some work done and get one step closer to the weekend.

Warren Sapp gets into confrontation with Florida State fan during tailgate, Tim McGraw's bronzer & Dale art

Welcome to Screencaps, "America's Best Daily Column," as named by the readers. Screencaps, which publishes seven-days-a-week, is a mix of sports, pop culture, and emails from sane readers from around the world. This column isn't for the coastal elites.

My old buddy Warren Sapp is at it again

Hours after a video surfaced of Sage Steele telling a story about how hard it was to deal with Warren during his playing days, this video surfaces from over the weekend.

The Florida State guy clearly thinks that Warren might be a softy old NFL guy who would let him under the umbrella during a pregame interaction. WRONG.

  1. The guy is wearing FSU gear.
  2. If you're looking for a wholesome fan interaction, Sapp IS NOT THE GUY. You've been warned.
  3. Warren Sapp is looking for a confrontation pretty much every second of every day of his life. There has been a confrontation on an airplane. There have been confrontations with police. With public officials. He kicks over end zone pylons on purpose, or did when he was employed by Deion Sanders. And then there was the time when he wanted me fired/virtually killed.

Warren kept me on the phone one afternoon in 2023. On that call, he threatened to have me fired. At one point, I drew him into a Laurel & Hardy wordplay bit that was completely ridiculous. I need to dig up that audio clip so my kids can hear their dad at work.

I'll say it again: Stay clear of Warren.

Is it CTE? Based on the stories that keep coming out, this is just who Sapp is and has been for decades. I just hope he doesn't start calling me today and yelling about this post. I don't have the time, Warren.

BREAKING UP TROY AIKMAN AND JOE BUCK WOULD BE A BIG MISTAKE FOR ESPN | BOBBY BURACK

The LIBS are furious, like usual, with Danica Patrick for having the audacity to ride around in The Beast with President Trump

"I wish you could all have just 5 minutes with @potus! He is so easy to talk to and SO fun to listen to! He’s a great storyteller … funny and obviously interesting. He is also very curious what your opinion is pertaining to any topic. And of course he is really into sports, which I love!" Danica wrote Tuesday night on Instagram.

In the middle of the night, Katie Couric fired up her Instagram account to comment, "Ugh."

That would be the same Katie Couric who fawned over disgusting AI robot Jennifer Welch days after Welch said Charlie Kirk "justified" his own murder. "So proud of what you've built here… using your voices and talking about important things and raising a little hell," Katie, who turns 70 in January, told Welch during a podcast appearance.

Our dear old Katie, who used to wake us up every morning with her cheery smile, is now nothing more than a miserable LIB Boomer who comments on Danica Patrick's Instagram posts in the middle of the night.

MAILBAG: What food is hard to screw up?

• Jake asks: What type of food do you think is nearly impossible to screw up? For instance, I've never had a bad Chinese meal, so that would be my pick.

Kinsey: I couldn't come up with anything off the top of my head this morning, so I turned to Screencaps Jr. and his instant response was, "Hot dogs."

Screencaps the III said it's hard to screw up "salad."

• Jake W., a different Jake, writes in on the MNF booth: The big thing I noticed watching the pregame spiel for MNF was Buck kept calling Troy 'man' and Troy did not reciprocate at all.

• Steve C. emails: I along with several others don't like the announcers on TV.  I sync my TV to the radio broadcast and it works great.  Better descriptions and better announcers.

Kinsey: I'm all ears. Is there a way to easily sync NFL radio broadcasts with TV broadcasts? I thought radio broadcasts were ahead of TV broadcasts, especially streaming services. I need someone to walk me through your syncing process.

I'm not a bronzer expert, but I have to say Tim McGraw went a little heavy here

Combining that spray tan along with that suit was quite a choice. And why don't these people ever spray tan their hands. Tim's face looks like a Spalding basketball and his left hand looks like he's spent a winter in Duluth, Minnesota.

I'm starting to feel bad for the legendary Ohio company, but I tried to tell them

At this point, I need to write a letter to senior management at Wendy's PLEADING WITH THEM to bring back at least ONE Wendy's Superbar as a feel-good marketing play. The PR pain needs to end before it's too late.

Did I think Wendy's would totally die off when I made my death prediction 3-4 years ago? No, but I saw what I saw. Now here we are.

It's time for the suits in Dublin, OH to change the death narrative and it starts with a national Wendy's Superbar campaign. I might even have to go down to meet with these guys before it's all over.

Do they have any idea the goodwill just ONE Superbar would create? Are you kidding me? There are no other fast-food brands doing food bars. BRING IT BACK!

Fan accused of stealing security uniform & sneaking into Alabama-Tennessee game, Sac vs Ball & a blimp tire

Welcome to Screencaps, "America's Best Daily Column," as named by the readers.

I miss the days in the SEC when you could give a $20 handshake to get into big college football games...not that I would've ever done that with my father

Now we have guys like Blake Bible going to extremes to get into mid-season games with playoff implications. Police say they found Bible "drinking a White Claw while wearing a uniform from Axis, the security company paid to work events at the University of Tennessee, near the G10 ramp on Phillip Fulmer Way just before 3:30 p.m."

The security company says Bible stole a shirt and hat that its workers wear at games.

THE COLLEGE FOOTBALL PLAYOFF IS SACRIFICING ITS SOUL TO BE AN ATM FOR CONFERENCES WITH EXPANSION TO 24 TEAMS

My concern is that with a 24-team playoff, will we even get games where college-aged guys are willing to (allegedly) steal security uniforms to see games in-person? The important SEC and B1G teams will be able to lose three games and get into the playoffs.

These two can't even look at each other – it's over

Days after Troy Aikman didn't dispute that he's beefing with Joe Buck, the two were back in the same broadcast booth last night and let's just say it was icy. Troy's not in the mood. If you listened to the broadcast, it was all business. There was no banter. Aikman clocked in, did his job and got out.

Who gets Aikman's job? I still say McAfee. He's already traveling with the Monday Night pregame show and doing the MNF alt-cast.

It's great to hear from new fans who found Screencaps from the Fox News homepage

• Keith R. writes: I am 60 years old from Pittsburgh.  Just wanted to say I do not understand technology well so I’m not sure how I came across your column.  I’m glad I did though, I love reading it.  If I am able to subscribe I will.  The best thing I’ve read so far was this morning.  I listen to most sports on mute these days.  I have a growing disdain for nearly every announcer and most analysts.  So bad that I find myself not enjoying the game because I just criticize the booth.  If I could watch the skycast on every game I would be happy.  Most of the announcers are just Captain Obvious and I honestly don’t care about 99% of what they say.  All I need is the down and distance and the crowd noise and I’m good! 

Kinsey: Thanks for reading, Keith. I'm not going to lie, the OutKick pivot from being it's own entity to being integrated as Fox News Digital's sports division has been a work in progress. Some readers left forever. Many stayed. Many loyal Fox readers think I'm an idiot and they don't get the column. That's fine.

And then there are guys like Keith who come along. He gave the column a chance. Now he's hooked. That's the business plan working like a charm.

Chiefs heiress Gracie Hunt's brother has a new Swedish girlfriend

Let's give a round of applause to Knobel Hunt, who will one day inherit the Kansas City Chiefs, along with his sisters Ava and Gracie. This guy is always overshadowed because he's off working in New York City as an investment banker, which should get him ready to run a billion-dollar NFL franchise down the road.

Knobel broke the news Monday that there's a new Swedish girlfriend in the mix. Between Gracie preparing to marry Trent Green's son and Ava cheering at SMU, it's a busy time for the Hunt family.

Does America have a door-holding problem?

I'm not talking about a problem with a lack of holding the door for people. I'm talking about holding the door for people who are too far away from the door to deserve the door to be held open for them.

Should we be holding the door for anyone who is more than a car length away from the door? Should it be a half-car length rule? In this meme, the lady seem to be about a SUV and a half length away. I say let the door close on her.
