Every time a pro wins with a quirky move, it shows up on the lesson tee the next week.... the bowed wrist, the foot hop, the "swing that will revolutionize golf." We all love an outlier, and we all think we're one magic bullet away. In this episode of the Athletic Motion Golf Podcast, Mike Granato & Shaun Webb break down why copying those moves is the fastest way to wreck your golf swing, and what you should be stealing from tour players instead.The real answer is their mindset and how they practice: low ball counts, rehearsal swings, verifying every feel against Gears, TrackMan, or video instead of trusting feel alone, and practicing with a plan rather than reacting to the last shot you hit. We get into honest swing-change timelines (why a tour coach will tell a player it might take two years), the 1%-a-day math, the ladder to unconscious competence, why bad concepts are the easiest to ingrain and the hardest to undo, Tony Ruggerio's 3x5 note card system, and why filming your on-course swing — not your basement swing — is the only way to see what you're actually changing.Get good at the basics. That's where 95% of them live. Timestamps below.

Dr Úna FitzPatrick, Chief Scientific Officer at the National Biodiversity Data Centre, discusses the 2026-2030 All-Ireland Pollinator Plan.

This is a sermon from the Morgantown, WV, USA sanctuary of Restoration Church International. Joe & Rena Perozich pray that this message will be a blessing to you as you listen. Should you wish to learn more about the ministry, we invite you to visit www.restorationchurchintl.org

Freedom in a Captive World We call it freedom—but so much of modern life leaves us addicted, distracted, anxious, and owned. Captured by screens. Approval. Consumption. Politics. Fear. Jesus offers a different kind of freedom: not the freedom to do whatever we want, but freedom from the things that quietly enslave us. ginghamsburg.org

Two Old Bloggers: Russini Bodycam Controversy, Brandel at Center, Turner's Edge Role, and Fitzmagic on Kyler Murray — Dave Stefano and Darren Campbell of Vikings First & SKOL discuss three main themes: the Dianna Russini bodycam incident in which she showed a police officer a text involving head coach Kevin O'Connell to avoid a ticket, debating its journalistic ethics, whether it suggests team leaking, and how it could affect player trust and the Wilfs' view of O'Connell, though they expect it to fade. They preview training-camp question marks, including Blake Brandel potentially starting at center despite limited experience, Dallas Turner replacing traded Jonathan Greenard as a full-time edge rusher, and the uncertainty at safety opposite Josh Metellus if Harrison Smith doesn't return (Theo Jackson, Jay Ward, or rookie Jakobe Thomas). In “This Week in Vikings Land,” they react to Ryan Fitzpatrick questioning Kyler Murray's long-term leadership, monitor first-round DT Caleb Banks' recovery from repeated left-foot injuries, and note Tai Felton's development amid a wide-receiver room led by Jefferson, Addison, and one-year signing Jauan Jennings. 00:00 Show Kickoff and Topics 01:54 Holiday Banter and Chat 04:04 Russini Scandal Breakdown 08:18 Ethics and Team Fallout 14:04 Dave Reacts and Wilfs Angle 21:36 Training Camp Player Questions 23:22 Brandel at Center Risk 29:40 Center Duties and Snaps 31:59 Dallas Turner Steps Up 32:26 Turner Replacing Greenard 34:22 Pass Rush Metrics Breakdown 38:14 Depth Concerns and Vet Options 40:04 Safety Spot After Hitman 45:12 Fitzpatrick on Kyler Murray 51:28 Caleb Banks Foot Watch 58:44 Ty Felton Future Role 01:05:25 Wrap Up and Sign Off Fan With Us!

On this episode of AFCA Studio, former NFL quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick joins AFCA Director of Education Mario Price to discuss the coaches who influenced his football journey, the lessons he learned during a 17-year NFL career, and how those experiences helped inspire the creation of Crucible. Having played for nine NFL organizations and learned under numerous offensive coordinators, Fitzpatrick developed a unique perspective on quarterback development, football intelligence, and the importance of decision-making. Now, through Crucible, he is helping quarterbacks at every level gain meaningful mental reps and improve their ability to process information quickly and efficiently.
