LPGA star Charley Hull ditches the links for a bikini girls trip, Dolphins-Bengals fan fight & ‘Bama no-call!

‘Nightcaps’ is a daily column that catches you up on the biggest sports, news and culture stories you may have missed while pretending to do work at your desk. It runs Monday-Friday on OutKick.com.

And just like that, we’re already into the double-digits of October.

Lordy. Time won’t slow down, will it? Not even for a second. One minute, you’re firing up the grill for Labor Day, and the next you’re trying to explain to your kids that we can’t carve pumpkins yet because it’s still 85 degrees in Florida and they’ll rot before sundown tomorrow.

Before you know it, we’ll be carving turkeys and decking the halls. Slow down, October. Please. We’re not ready yet!

On that note, welcome to a Monday Nightcaps — the one where LPGA star Charley Hull dusts off her fall bikini and has a girls’ weekend before getting back to the links.

Patriot.

What else? I’ve got the refs ruining another college football classic in Tuscaloosa Saturday night (shocker!), Dolphins and Bengals fans got INTO it yesterday at Hard Rock Stadium, and how did Falcons fans enjoy their first Tua Tagovailoa experience last night?

I feel your pain … literally. I watched it for five years. Nobody in this league loves to throw the ball directly to the opposing team quite like Tua. It’s uncanny.

I’m so sorry.

OK, grab you a map for Columbus Day (!!!), and settle in for a Monday ‘Cap!

Charley Hull takes a much-needed weekend off

I don’t talk much politics in this class anymore, but that’s funny. The Libs just refuse to be normal. They refuse to define a woman, and refuse to call it “Columbus Day,” even though we literally called it that for decades.

Somewhere along the way (2020, probably), it became offensive, and the buzz phrase “Indigenous Peoples” was introduced to the world. What a time to be alive. What a hill to die on.

Anyway, it’s just funny to me. We do this every year. You really wanna go down a wormhole? Go look up what different states call this day. In Hawaii, for example, it’s referred to as “Discoverers’ Day.”

It’s all silly to me. The gaslighting. The pandering. The nonsense. It’s not that serious, folks. Lighten up. Can we all please just be normal again?

And that’s your Columbus Day Ted Talk. You are welcome!

OK, let’s hop in our own boats and head east to check in on LPGA star, Charley Hull, who took the weekend off to enjoy some R&R with the ladies:

COMEDIAN TIM DILLON SLAMS SYDNEY SWEENEY CRITICS UPSET WITH STEAMY AD: ‘HOW INSANE IS THAT? ‘

Sydney Sweeney has a response for the outrage brigade!

Once again, Charley Hull doesn’t miss. What a content run out of the best LPGA golfer on the planet right now. What a heater. She even spoke to OutKick a few weeks back and BLASTED the losers who were throwing a tantrum over Sydney Sweeney’s naked Novig commercial.

“The amount of backlash that [it] is getting, I just don’t understand the way people’s brains work,” the world’s 8th-ranked female golfer said of the ridiculous reactions from other female athletes who completely overreacted.

“They’re making a big deal out of nothing. It’s an actress slash model modeling for an advert. And I think she owns the company as well,” Hull added.

Patriot.

In a world full of gaslighters who cry foul over a gambling commercial, be more like Charley Hull and Sydney Sweeney.

Choose your fighter(s), America.

Speaking of Sydney’s racy commercial … look who pumped out a SEQUEL over the weekend!

‘Bama, Tua & my Dolphins!

Amazing. How about a little Sunday afternoon drop right before the 1 p.m. NFL slate? Diabolical move out of the Novig marketing team.

Talk about knowing your audience!

I assume we’ll see plenty of outrage from the usual suspects this coming week. Eyes peeled, boys and girls. I can’t wait.

OK, let’s rapid-fire this Monday class into a big Monday night of FOOTBALL. First up? I know it’s two days old now, but I still can’t get over the no-call in Saturday’s Bama-Georgia game:

Thoughts? First impressions?

I’ll be honest … I wasn’t 100% sure it was a PI in real-time. I thought it was a bang-bang play at full speed, and sort of understood the no-call. I know Fowler and Herbie were convinced, but even the ESPN booth ref didn’t know for sure …

And then they showed the replay, and it was … pretty darn clear. That’s a PI. Textbook PI. Sort of reminded me of the infamous Rams-Saints no-call from the NFC title game.

Now, I will say this: I think Kalen Deboer’s reaction to it was a little much:

He’s mad. We all were. At least us OVER 51.5 bettors were. I get it. But come on. You’re the head coach of ALABAMA. That’s a little much. Could you imagine Saban reacting like that to a call?

Scratch that! Never mind. He’s right. Saban would’ve had this ref bagging groceries at the Kroger before breakfast the next morning.

Moving on …

My Dolphins lost again yesterday. What a perfectly executed tank thus far! They’re 0-5, but have been competitive in every game and the rookie class is playing outstanding. Really can’t draw it up any better.

Now, let’s see how other Dolphins fans are feeling about it. Surely I can’t be the only one in a good mood today …

Alllllllllll righty then! Seems like everyone is taking the 0-5 start in stride down at Hard Rock! Five games down, folks. 11 to go.

Gulp.

On the bright side, at least we don’t have Tua anymore. I’m so sorry, Falcons fans. Seriously. I empathize with you. I do.

Amazing. Classic Tua. Nobody does it better!

OK, that’s it for today. Good start to the week, everyone. Let’s keep the momentum up as we head into this second full week of October.

On the way out, here’s Oklahoma’s kicker shoving it down Texas’s throat on the way out. Was that a classic Red River Rivalry, or WHAT?

See y’all tomorrow.
