We laughed, we cried, and most importantly, we made it through another call to the bullpen in one piece. Joe will be back tomorrow. I'll be preparing for the Fourth of July weekend, but that doesn’t mean I'm mailing it in today.This edition of Thursday Screencaps has Paige Spiranac and her golf content helping out with some of the prep work for the big holiday weekend. She has her golf content dialed in this summer.Just when you think you've seen it all from the world's No. 1 golf influencer, she comes up with something new. The classics, like the slow-motion swing, will always be there, and she's never been afraid to pull those out when she needs to.RORY MCILROY TURNS HEADS AT WIMBLEDON BY SPORTING HIS MASTERS GREEN JACKET AT CENTER COURTThat's the kind of content you have to pick your spots with. It can't be wall-to-wall slo-mo swings. Paige doesn’t need to be told this. She's always been a step or two ahead of everyone else cranking out golf content.This summer has been no exception. She's been dialing it in and, a few weeks or so ago, she launched new content with other women in golf. The move might seem counterproductive to some, but being at the top has its advantages.Paige has made it to the point where it's time to use what she's built to give back and use her platform to help out others. It's what you do when you really don't have any competition.CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COM- Phil S in Florida writes:Hey Sean. Please pass along a you’re welcome to Mr. CF for me. Glad he enjoyed the Hank JR reference. I love making people smile, and I’m happy to know I did that for him. One thing I love about this daily article is that reader emails are included, both new and longtime readers, and I feel like I know some of these guys and would gladly have a beer or 2 with many of them. Honestly I’d probably get absolutely tanked with a few of them too. Thanks again for filling in for Joe and keeping up the good work. Have a great day, and if you have the chance, do something nice for a stranger, it might make their day.- Eric writes:Thank you for not printing one word about the WNBA today.. it’s a clown show that deserves to be shunned.. it has no merit potential whatsoever.- Mark writes:Sean,While driving the RV back from Disney World in the 80s, we stopped at "Dogpatch" in Arkansas a theme park from Lil Abner cartoon strip. It was on its last legs as some of the rides didn’t work and the parking lot was mostly empty. I’ve got an old snapshot (real film) of me with daisy mae somewhere.Great job subbing on the column too.SeanJoHey Mark, thanks for reaching out and thanks for the support. My visit to Boardwalk and Baseball came during a visit to Disney World too.Who knew there were so many theme parks back in the day? We evidently had one for almost anything.- Homebrew Bill writes:It's not much, but it will do for dinner tonight. SeanJoYou know we don't judge around here. It's meat and a grill. That's all that matters. We're not meat-shaming around here.In fact, we decided to toss some burgers on the grill at the last minute last night. It wasn’t much either. But it was meat, it was a grill, and it was a solid dinner.- Myron writes:SeanI dont care for cheese with peanut butter, prefer thimbleberry jam or bananas, but I love a good slice of cheese. Especially sharp cheddar. Wife bought some 15 year old as a birthday present. Delicious, especially with apple pie.Remembering the days of Pele in NY, I am excited to see the turnout and enthusiasm for the world cup. Grew up playing pond hockey and soccer is very similar. So I ended up coaching kids and learning some pleasure in watching the game.Attached is a picture of a pork butt pulled and not pulled yet, along with a picture of a turkey and a very small brisket on the smoker. We will also be doing some poppers and shotgun shells for the 4th. I will try to remember to send more pictures.SeanJoDefinitely send in the poppers and shotgun shells and anything else you toss on the grill. We're in the middle of prime grilling season.Also, tell me more about this apple pie and cheese combo. How is this going down? Are you melting the cheese? Do you stick it in the pie before you eat it?I need the details on this. I'm imagining a bit of pie being chased by a bite of cheese. That can't be how this goes down. Let me know.- Jim T in San Diego writes:The WNBA's tone-deaf moralizing cannot be without repercussion indefinitely, and my guess is that many, perhaps most, of the new fans Caitlin Clark brought to the league are already tiring of the constant lectures and false accusations of racism.The ratings are clear, so is attendance, and so are licensed merch sales: Clark drives eyes and dollars.Not any of the other players that the WNBA and its media apologists assure us are the real reason for the higher ratings and popularity. It's Clark. When she plays, ratings spike. When she's out - or her game isn't being televised - ratings tank.And the asinine argument that she's only popular because she's white can be disproven in under two seconds: If it was just being white, then Sue Bird, Kelsey Plum or Sophie Cunningham would have become as popular as Clark is. Fans like her not because she's white, but because of her combination of playing style, success, and personality - the same combination that made Michael Jordan and Tiger Woods transformatively popular in their respective sports.Yet the league not only doesn't protect Clark from cheap shots no other players seem to receive nearly as often, when she is pummeled anyone who protests is branded a homophobe and bigot for daring to notice.Again, at what point do Clark's fans simply tune out the league? Tire of the nonsense and take their entertainment dollars elsewhere?Success is not guaranteed - look at NASCAR, which ruled the sports landscape in the 1990s to the point the NFL didn't want to schedule against it. But NASCAR not only banned Confederate flags from its races, but did so in as confrontational manner as possible - not just banning the flags, but making clear that those who had flown them in the past weren't entirely welcome moving forward. They managed to alienate huge swaths of their existing fan base without ever replacing them with the new fans they thought that policy would attract. Or at least not enough of them.A quarter century later, tracks have closed, and races still feature tons of empty seats.If the WNBA's new fans simply go away, how long before the league's broadcast partners start demanding refunds based on lower ratings? (Usually built into most broadcast contracts, anyway.) How long before the NBA owners and players association tires of underwriting a league that won't even embrace its best marketing opportunity ever?It's rare to see this level of incompetence in an established pro sports league. It's almost as if Cathy Englebert has a deal with Rob Manfred to make him look better by comparison.If the WNBA doesn't get its act together and soon, they'll be back to fighting rugby and indoor lacrosse for bottom position in U.S. pro sports leagues. That a pro basketball league trails its counterpart in soccer in terms of popularity in this country is testament to just how badly the WNBA has been run. It is entirely conceivable that Major League Volleyball could pass the WNBA in the coming years ...ZERO BS. JUST DAKICH. TAKE THE DON’T @ ME PODCAST ON THE ROAD.

I know a couple of trauma nurses who worked the Fourth of July, or at least they used to when they were younger. The stories they told me. In some parts of South Florida, I’ve heard they’re using mortars, as in stuff you hear about in a war. And somebody will blow their hands off doing that. SMDHAnd great workSeanJoThis is a great reminder. Stick to the simple stuff. You don't need mortars to celebrate the Fourth of July. Keep your fingers and both of your hands.##########There you have it, another Thursday Screencaps in the books. Another successful relief appearance in the books. I have to grab more coffee and get going on this week's True Romance.I'll see everyone in the Screencaps community on Sunday. If you fire up the grills, if you're shooting off fireworks, send it my way sean.joseph@outkick.com.You can also follow me on Twitter and over on Instagram and slide into the DMs over there. Have a great Fourth of July weekend.
