Your Golf Buoyancy is about to be off the charts because the Golf Boys — the golf-themed boyband — is back. This time they’ve brought chicken wings (in both food and clothing forms), exploding soda bottles, a giant-sized hat and some baby costumes. No, seriously.

Brought to you by PGA Tour stars Ben Crane, Bubba Watson, Rickie Fowler and Hunter Mahan, the Golf Boys’ encore performance, “2.Oh”, is here. Proceeds benefiting charity:water. Please visit http://mycharitywater.org/GolfBoys for more information about the cause and Golf Boys campaign.

Shane Bacon has contributed a few things to my life, but none greater than the “hey, Bubba Watson just did something else stupid” heads-up. And hey, it’s for a good cause, right? The charity’s even called “charity:water,” which can be read as “charity colon water,” which is THE WORST POSSIBLE CHARITY.

But seriously, good on the Golf Boys for showing some personality and having fun. Here’s the video. Have fun singing this for the rest of the day.

Hey guys, check it out, I just got a job writing for Cracked magazine. A guy named Bubba wants to get together a bunch of PGA golfers and form the first all-golfer boy band. Wait, this is real?

“I’ve got two words for you. Before I tell you those two words, I’m going to build it up,” Watson joked. “I should be in the media.”

Then, he gave the media just a little taste of what to expect.

“There’s going to be a group of guys, and the two words are Boy Band. I’m going to leave it at that. And it involves Ben, me and maybe a couple others. But Boy Band.”

Did Tiger Woods cheating on his wife break whatever mystical seal existed that was ket young white golfers from losing their minds and coming up with terrible ideas for things on the Internet? Ben Crane pulls a Brian Wilson and all of a sudden everybody is a wacky guy just tryin’ t’have fun.

Anyway, alternate titles for this blog post included “Drive the Ball ‘N Sync a Putt,” “I Didn’t Know They Had Golf Tournaments In O-Town,” “Bubba Watson Golfed a Plus One” or “Bubba Watson Should Take Five Strokes,” “Watson Slices Ball 98 Degrees” and “A New Edition of Golf Digest.” None of them should be typed, but the O-Town one is pretty funny. I tried to work “LFO” into an “LOL” or “LMAO” thing, but it didn’t work, just like LFO.

Ben Crane seems like a normal guy who could have a nice, under the radar career. But no, the Internet has turned everything into a high school talent show popularity contest, and the jocks are the first ones to put on wigs and put balloons into bras and do funny dances to “My Humps.” Suddenly, Crane is a weird hybrid of Dean Pelton from “Community” and Brian Wilson, moonwalking on the Internet in ladies underwear for your amusement.

Watch the following video to forever change your impression of Ben Crane. You know, honestly? This video might be a good thing. Because show of hands, how many of you had an impression of Ben Crane before clicking this?

It’s the best and worst thing to happen to golf since Tiger Woods sent that “you are wrong I’m bone thugs in harmon” text.
