I'm back in the saddle for this edition of Monday Screencaps all refreshed and freezing this morning in NW Ohio where it was 53 degrees when I sat down to pump out this content. Yes, 53 degrees. It'll be 76 or so today, which should get a reaction out of the Texans and Floridians who, this time of year, want some of this weather like we want their weather in February.
Catch a flight to Detroit. Bring a hoodie.
Let's dive right into weekend observations:
• Credit where credit is due. Guys, get your relationships ironed out. Wyndham Clark announced to the world at The Masters that he's dating Michigan State grad Emily Tanner and his career not only rebounded in 2026 with a U.S. Open win, but he just pocketed the BMW Championship and announced that Tanner is moving in with him.
As the BMW was getting started, Tanner revealed on Instagram that she was packing up her California apartment and moving to Arizona to live with Clark. "Where are you moving???" Clark commented on her post as he was in the middle of the BMW. That's called a power move. Alpha behavior.
After finishing 2025 ranked 46th in the world, Clark is up to 5th with one more tournament to go before he and Tanner go nuts traveling through the fall and winter.
• What is with the prices of flowers this late in August? Home Depot is still trying to sell pots of impatiens for $15 that will be dead in six weeks. Over at Lowe's, similar plants are $4. Why are we looking at plants right now? Mrs. Screencaps is running a six-week test with impatiens to get an idea of what she wants to do in 2027. It's like bringing up prospects from Triple-A for the playoff run.
GET YOUR YARD WORK DONE FASTER WITH THESE CORDLESS TOOLS, STARTING AT $21
• If you have the money to spend, buy Stihl battery tools (#notsponsored; I've used my money to buy every tool I own). After spending eight hours Sunday cutting, edging, shredding, digging and ripping at things in the yard and in the garage, my advice to younger readers is to invest in high-quality tools. I can't overemphasize enough how my life around the house changed when I upgraded our lawn tools.
• That said, I would our Ryobi battery pruner will cut off a finger just as well as a Stihl pruner. Save your money and buy the Ryobi.
• I have to give Screencaps Jr. credit. He took it upon himself to go on a personal training run yesterday. After returning home, he revealed it was a five-mile run – 6:30 avg. over the first 2 1/2 miles, then he ran three hill climb gassers, then ran 2 1/2 miles home with a 7:30 avg.
Then I made him pick up dog crap so I could get the yard dialed in for his birthday this Friday.

– Linda M. tells me: I own a bar in Coeur d'Alene Idaho some people call it a dive bar lots of TVs pool tables you know the kind of place no food just a bar,
DirecTV is charging over $6,000 for the NFL package! isn't that ridiculous?but I have to have it, Sunday football pretty huge.
Love your articles by the way.
Kinsey: I ran this through Google Gemini, who estimates a bar would need to bring in an average of 15-18 extra patrons and get those patrons to drop $25-$30 per person to break even. I'll dive in a little deeper to see how Linda justifies the cost and what the ROI is with the Ticket on her TVs.
Is the bar typically dead on a Sunday? Does having the Ticket pack the place?
– Bob in Cincy emails: I love reading your column, I try to get to it every day. We were watching Life with the Walter Boys last night when one of our driveway cameras went off. This was around 10:00 so we’re not expecting anyone. I attached the video. I’m guessing a flying bug or maybe a drone. My wife wasn’t thrilled about it. Have you ever had anything like this on your cameras?
Kinsey: I'm going with a bug or... a UFO.
ZERO BS. JUST DAKICH. TAKE THE DON'T @ ME PODCAST ON THE ROAD. DOWNLOAD NOW!
– Paul in Cincy knows it's too soon for Halloween decorations: Just a stupid waste of good money:

That is it this morning. We're just days away from legitimate college football. Not totally legitimate, but it'll be something to watch on TV. Let's put in a solid week of work, get our patios dialed in and keep Respecting Summer.
Have a good one.
