Will there be more TNML Polo of the Years produced?

My best buddies/neighbors need polo shirts. Will there be another run of them?
Looking for an XL and a 2XL
Kinsey:
YES!
I heard from OutKick T-shirt Manager Olivia G. on Friday and she said we've sold through TWO backorders, and they're now moving onto the third round of backorders.
BUY THE 2024 POLO OF THE SUMMER – HERE!
In other words, we have a huge success on our hands here. My advice is simple: Go to the link above, ORDER THE POLO of the SUMMER and we'll get it to you. Father's Day is June 16. Get ordering!
BURY THEM WITH ORDERS.
Is this the best Yacht Rock band out there?
– Will V. writes:
Yacht Rock is a fairly popular theme in the article so I felt the need to share my favorite touring yacht rock band that I feel is head and shoulders above any other yacht rock band I’ve seen… https://www.yachtleycrew.com/. Went and saw them last night, I believe for the 9th or 10th time, 2 to 3 times a year since the first time in March of 2020…. They have some Midwest dates this summer or if your ever in Vegas on a weekend they’re there I highly reccomend them. Get a captains hat and some aviators, pregame at a local pub and go have the best night of the year! I don’t like using my phone much at events but here’s a quick 10 seconds of the Lido Shuffle!

I didn't expect to see Shipshewana, IN on Yachtley Crew's tour this summer. I would've thought Put-in-Bay over Amish Country.
Don't move to Omaha
- Douglas J. in Omaha writes:
Well I almost choked on my food as I was reading Screencaps on Sat. and saw the Forbes top cities to move to in 2024 with Omaha NE being #1. Our tourism slogan for the last 5 years has been "Nebraska, honestly it's not for everyone".
I guess our reverse psychology worked or talk about your all-time backfires. I really hope more people don't move here because of that article. Just come out in June for a couple of weeks to participate in the fun College World Series party, watch some great baseball and then please go back home.
We love you but honestly Nebraska isn't the #1 place to move to. Have a great week screencappers.
Things that Screencaps readers see in their daily lives

Was driving through Oregon a couple years ago and this McDonal’s play set was for sale at a junk yard.
That's four straight Sundays working in the yard
Do Hard Things…Do Hard Things…Do HARD Things…that's all I keep hearing in my head as the weekends start to pile up. There is a finish line. There will be weekends when I post up in a chair and I don't move for 48 hours…BECAUSE WE HAVE EARNED IT.
Mrs. Screencaps and I just have to keep telling ourselves…DO HARD THINGS NOW and there will multiple do nothing weekends.
Last night, I was catching up on some TV and happened to catch a Whoopi Goldberg – I know, I know…I almost fast-forwarded right through the interview with this lunatic – where she has the CBS reporter come to her house in Sardinia where she just sits in an Adirondack chair and watches the waves.
Does nothing.
And wouldn't you know it, she's at peace in that spot. That was the most interesting part of the interview. It reminded me that all this work, and no golf, is all worth it when I'm sitting there under blue skies doing absolutely nothing just like Whoopi.
Quick weekend observations:
- It goes without saying that the Kentucky Derby was one helluva race. The text group was on Catching Freedom. Oh well.
- I put our pitchers up against live hitters in Saturday's wet, muddy practice and let's just say our pitchers battled their asses off with wet baseballs and rain coming down.
- Sequoia told me he's missing the first two games of the season due to soccer games. That's going to throw a wrench into our gameplan. We'll be down to TWO 12-year-olds on a 12U team for those games.
- I actually enjoyed watching the Timberwolves-Nuggets game on Saturday night because Anthony Edwards is must-watch TV when the ball is in his hands, as is Joker. My only issue is that tonight's game tips at 10.
- The couple in front of me at Lowe's got a hard lesson in the cost of plants and fertilizer. I don't think they were expecting the $200-plus bill for a couple of hydrangeas, a pack of petunias and a couple of other things. Good luck to the new, young homeowners out there who are trying to work on their landscaping. Use Facebook Marketplace to find people thinning out plants.
- Speaking of hard lessons in the current costs of plants, Mrs. Screencaps went a little nuts at the garden center yesterday. She's in for $370, but the pots should look awesome, and we did add quite a bit to our perennial beds.
- Yes, she'll buy more, but I added a day to this year's golf trip, so the last thing I'm going to say is, ‘No more plants.’ That would be an absurd statement when, in less than 30 days, I'll be going off the grid for five days of golf.
- There's just something special about finding a new hole-in-the wall breakfast joint that's in an old Wendy's that still has the garden dining area. The place serves a legitimate two egg, homefries, bacon and English muffin breakfast for 6.99. Even in this part of the country that's hard to find. We'll be going back, especially so our kids can learn what was so special about the Wendy's garden dining area.
- I turned on the pool and the lines that are like 40 years old didn't break over the winter. That's a win.
Moment of doing absolutely nothing

May prep work

Gotta get those chores done in May for a Memorial Day kick off. I treasure my "FO" time in late spring and summer, so you gotta drive on to the strategic objective. Weather finally broke so got the first mow in Thursday. Windows cleaned and house siding power washed. Plant a few flowers next week and it’s go time.
Those frat boys are doin God’s work. The terrorist-lovin commie protestors can kiss my Red White and Blue ass. FJB.
Anonymous Millennial in Memphis goes shopping - update

Anonymuous Millennial from Memphis with an update on the shirt situation.
First off, special shoutout to all the guys who emailed in and responded to my question. I knew I had come to the right place when Chris B. from Florida used swamp ass in his reply and suggested wicking underwear. With the suggestions including words like wicking and swamp ass, I felt understood at a deep level. My wife said that I had found my internet group/friends. She found hers in the homeschool mom world and now I've found mine.
So here is the update:
Last night during my birthday dinner (my 37th birthday was earlier this week) date with my wife I told her Screencaps responded in droves to my shirt question. After dinner we shopped on several of the websites the guys recommeneded. The initial winner is Ponchos followed by Untuckit. I purchased two short sleeve button-downs from Ponochos (that even come with a free hat). #notsponsored
Top two selling points that won us over are the hidden & seen features and the warranty. When someone offers a lifetime warranty on a clothing item that shows me they created a great product they stand behind.
I will report back on my rating of Ponchos once the shirts have arrived and I try them on. We are headed to the soccer (rec soccer) field this morning. Best of luck at your practice today. I'm interested in the progress your 1st baseman makes on the mound.
Kinsey:
#notsponsored one bit. I don't even want to hear any accusations!

We're off and running on this first Monday in May. The 12U team with very few 12Us has its first scrimmage tonight. My mind will be racing all day as I build a batting order and pitching rotation.
It's time to see if we're close to being ready for Opening Day.
Go have an incredible day of work and/or retirement.
