If you don’t remember (I’m not sure how anybody over the age of 35 would forget), back in 1985 the soon-to-be Super Bowl champion Chicago Bears produced what I consider to be the vanguard in ultra-cheestastic sports/music videos when the foist the “Super Bowl Shuffle” on the world. Sure the Dodgers had the decidedly more homoerotic “Baseball Boogie,” but the Bears clearly set the bar…until now.
The PGA, an organization known for its whimsy and playful sense of humor (read that as “the Catholic Church of sports”) seems to have taken a step toward actual humanity with its new video featuring four of the rising young stars on the tour in a “boy band” style video. “Golf Boys” features Ricky Fowler, Bubba Watson, Ben Crane, and Hunter Mahan getting their spoof on.
Can you imagine what an old-timer like Arnold Palmer thinks of this? He may just have spit his “Arnold Palmer” across the room.
That was horrible. They must’ve been drunk when they came up with that one. I’m glad my favorite US golfer, Dustin Johnson, didn’t join in on that crap…

Boys will be boys.
I remember when I had my first beer.

Well Tour Commissioner Tim Finchem did want Woods to parade up and down Congressional Golf Club prior to the US Open with the bevvy of chicks that he’d nailed but somehow he thought that a lot of fans would’ve taken umbrage with that.

Hey, with Tiger injured and ineffective the PGA is looking for any publicity it can get (even horrendous videos like that one). Wake me up win Tiger’s Harem puts out a video…
