Welcome to Friday Screencaps and day 12 of 13 straight editions of Screencaps I’ve pumped out for you guys. Is it hard to dump out so many editions in a row? It is if it’s the middle of summer and we don’t have content like the Packers getting absolutely pummeled — and booed off the field at halftime – by the Falcons, 35-14.
A night like that produces content like this that I can then turn into a preview of my upcoming weekend that will include a trip to the pumpkin patch where Screencaps Jr. will be running tomorrow. I am already mentally preparing because I’m fairly certain that this will also turn into an apple-picking outing.
At least the weather is supposed to be very good. Good luck to all of you who face a doubleheader tomorrow. Let’s get it in and then get back to football Saturdays in October.

Hooters isn’t dead yet
In one of the biggest upsets in Hooters calendar history, the brand announced this week that an Ohio woman, Sophia Zullo, was the 2027 bikini calendar cover model. Why am I shocked? The brand has been retreating by the month back to its roots in Florida. As someone who has tracked Hooters for nearly all of my 20-year Internet career, I figured the brand would lean into its Florida operations by naming a Florida woman to the top honor.
Nope, they leaned into…Ohio? There are just two Hooters left in the Buckeye state: one in Dayton and the Mason store.
CHILI’S REVIVES ICONIC RED BOOTHS AND CLASSIC DESIGN IN NATIONWIDE RESTAURANT OVERHAUL
But it’s not all great news for Hooters in Florida, either. Earlier this month, the company closed a store in Panama City Beach that had been open for 30 years.
How do we feel about this new John Madden movie?
Flop, right? If you can’t get the voice even remotely close, it’s a guaranteed bust. And why is it that everything Amazon touches feels like the cheapest production in the history of movie-making? Last night, I turned off the football game and started looking at the movies and shows being offered up by Amazon.
It all felt like the VHS movies you’d never rent back in 1998. That’s the vibe I’m getting from this Madden movie. Waste of time. It feels like Amazon throwing money against the wall because they have money to burn just so they can market its Prime Video vertical.
You guys tell me if this gets the blood pumping.
SKIPPING THE IPHONE 18 PRO? HERE’S EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO MAKE YOUR CURRENT PHONE FEEL LIKE NEW
There is officially a San Diego State vs. Toledo bet this weekend
– Jim T. in San Diego emails: How about the Tony Packo’s chili sauce if SDSU wins? And then you can figure out something comparable you want local to San Diego. Doesn’t even have to be food – maybe you want a Torrey Pines towel for your golf bag?
Kinsey: DEAL. I especially like this bet with SDSU facing a Noon kickoff. I’m going to pass on the towel. I feel like that’s stolen golf valor.
Happy 9/25
Sapp
– Mark T. in Florida emails: Head on a swivel when it comes to Sapp, he’s retired with nothing to do. As for Diesel, that blanket collection is outta control. I don’t care how large he is, he’s got to reign that situation in…..completely unacceptable. He’s got to get his operations dialed in before its too late. Its only September……
Kinsey: IMO, Sapp is looking for a payday. Trust me, I’m on high alert.
Toys ‘R’ Us is coming back because so many adults are buying toys…for themselves
Fewer humans having kids. More people living in apartments. Storage units popping up like gas stations. More adults than ever buying toys for themselves. I will call my life a success if I can raise my kids to buy lawn equipment, have children, go on nice trips to Vegas to blow off steam here and there and not buy toys as adults.
Ducks on Jeeps
– Steve E. says: I know it’s been a while since this topic has been discussed in SC, but I thought you’d get a kick out of it.

Screen protectors
– John in Milford, MI offers perspective: I like to use things until they start to fail before I replace them, so I only get every fourth iPhone. I’ve had a 6, 10, 14, and now I just got the 18 (the plug in charger on my 14 hadn’t worked in months and I was getting tired of always having to find a stand charger). So I of course had to buy a screen protector too. Have you ever thought about why ponying up an extra $40 for that is necessary? Why aren’t the phones just manufactured with screens that have protection? It’s like buying shoes then needing to shop for the laces if you think about it.

Kinsey: John, why are speakers on our TVs so bad? So we’ll buy an overpriced soundbar. I hear you and I feel your pain. The second a Verizon worker mentions adding a screen protector, my blood boils.
The good news for my blood is that I’ll never do a phone deal at a Verizon store ever again. You might remember that drama playing out over the summer.
Instead, my plan is to unleash an AI bot to chat with Verizon’s AI bot the next time. My bot will bet instructed that it’s the Scott Boras of AI bots and it damn well better get me the best deal on the market.

And that is it for this Friday morning, the final Friday in September. This month absolutely flew by and October should be more of the same. Football, cross country, Saturday soccer games, football, apple orchards, pumpkin patches. I’m deep into it right now.
