Welcome to the latest edition of Sunday Screencaps. I’m happy to report that there’s been a lot of respect shown this week to summer and grilling season.
These are the days when the pressure to turn the page to fall is really cranked up to another level. Fall will have its time, that time has not arrived yet.
Unfortunately, I also have to pass along news of heartbreak and finger pointing. Olympic hero and New Jersey Devils center Jack Hughes and Canadian pop star Tate McRae have reportedly called it quits.
Page Six broke the news. They claim, according to their sources, that both sides are trying to take credit for calling it off.
ZERO BS. JUST DAKICH. TAKE THE DON’T @ ME PODCAST ON THE ROAD. DOWNLOAD NOW!
McRae’s return to the NHL after a prior relationship with a hockey player was never officially confirmed. She was spotted in New York with Hughes, she was seen at Devils games and even backed Team USA in a Winter Olympics promo.
It wasn’t enough for these two to make it through the offseason intact. Page Six says “the NHL star has been blabbing to pals that he broke up with the ‘Exes’ singer before they had a chance to publicly confirm their romance.”
A source told them he ended it because of “red flags.” There’s a different version of events from “sources close to McRae.” They say it was the singer who ended it. However, there were no mentions of flags of any color.
I have a feeling that both Hughes and McRae are going to be just fine. Best of luck to the two of them.
MEAT!

What can I say? Homebrew Bill, you don’t miss. The grill is always fired up with intention and the results speak for themselves. Your meat is always worth a look, keep sending it my way.
Meat
– Bob writes:
Hey Sean, greetings from hot North Las Vegas. Tossed a tri-tip on the grill and paired it with sweet potatoes, carrots and potatoes. Just to keep it simple.
Continue the great work!
SeanJo
Bob, I love a simple approach. Well done. The word hero gets used too much, according to some, but battling it out with the heat for meat during grilling season is worthy of the title.
Thanks for the support and keep sending your meat my way.
Braved 115° Phoenix heat for this meat

115 degrees? No worries. 48 hour dry brined ribeye roast

From one hero to another. Mike, you didn’t let the Phoenix temps keep you from tossing some meat on. The respect for summer and for grilling season is incredible. Keep going. It’s inspirational work. And whatever you do, keep sending in your meat.
What I was drinking plus cheeseburgers

Hey SeanJo,
To answer the question of what I was drinking with my steak last week, it was an Old Fashioned. I have Angel’s Envy, Woodford Reserve (gift from a friend), and a bourbon from a local brewery that has a deal with a distillery in Kentucky. I think that’s how some breweries are thriving as craft beer wanes in popularity.
It’s funny how Joe recently wrote about the IPA Mafia becoming Bourbon Bros., and I don’t like admitting I sort of became one of them. A few years back, I was gaining weight despite all the running and triathlons I was doing. Two friends said they switched from IPAs and craft beer to light beer and lost weight. I did the same thing and slowly lost 15-20 pounds. I always had an Old Fashioned for my birthday at a local steakhouse, but noticed I slowly started drinking them more often at other restaurants. The folks drinking IPAs in 2018 are drinking bourbon today.
Also, I grilled up some cheeseburgers on King’s Hawaiian buns for some friends, their kids, and my wife and I. Ended up being a hit. Also grabbed some potato salad from our local Publix.
Take care!
SeanJo
Gen X Warren M, thanks for the update on the drink and for the strength to admit you’ve become one of the Bourbon Bros.
As for the cheeseburger, it’s perfect. I had cheeseburgers last night and as I said when I posted my meat on Twitter, I grilled mine with a little salt, a little pepper, and a ton of respect for summer. It doesn’t have to be complicated.
The King’s Hawaiian buns were a nice touch on your burgers. As always, keep sending your meat my way.
BIGFOOT IS A NEANDERTHAL-HUMAN HYBRID, ACCORDING TO THE MAN WHO CLAIMS TO HAVE FOUND REMAINS
Bigfoot
– Jeff writes:
Hi Sean,
I just concluded reading your very interesting article in Fox! The colorful antics of Snake aside, I am sure you are acquainted with some of the potential, circumstantial evidence for the possible existence of a large hominid.
Obviously there is a fun aspect to the whole Bigfoot phenomenon, the spooky prospect of not being truly alone in the woods, etc, but I do think there are some very interesting bits which indicate something could very well be out there.
Almost all native American tribes for hundreds, if not thousands of years, have had nearly identical conceptions (and drawings) of the creature, many a footprint has been cast which cannot easily be declared to be fake, and reports of sightings in areas where it would make no sense to fake an encounter. Indeed, the infamous Patterson Gimlin film depicts a creature which is a female – hardly something one would think to fake, in my estimation. Dr. Jeff Meldrum has likewise presented compelling evidence that the gait of that creature, and overall body structure, comports with an ape.
My brother is a Marine, and two of our cousins are as well – the reports of these things on military bases, from Twentynine Palms in CA, to Lejeune in NC, also are very hard to easily refute, especially audio recordings, etc.
In any event, during my time on Capitol Hill as a legislative staffer, there even were some occasions where Senate Armed Services Committee staff would discuss this topic.
It’s all very fascinating stuff!
Thanks for a fun read and I thought I’d drop you a line,
Jeff

Jeff, as a Bigfoot guy, I want to believe. I enjoy the stories and reports of encounters, but I’ve never seen any evidence whatsoever.
I’ve come across nothing in the wilderness and I’m not convinced by supposed Bigfoot tracks in the mud. Again, I hope they’re out there.
Here’s the article Jeff is referring to for anyone who missed it.

That’s all I have this week. I’m out of town next week and squeezing in a little vacation before school starts back. I’m not sure if Screencaps will be going dark or not. Have a great week. We have more preseason football this week. Enjoy.
