Larry David tells “idiots” to stay home and watch TV in most perfect PSA ever

Larry David's 10th season of Curb Your Enthusiasm, which recently wrapped up on HBO, was a masterpiece from start to finish. But the legendary comedian needed a lot less time to create the greatest PSA ever amid the ongoing Coronavirus pandemic.

As PSAs go, it's perfect. From the “Well, not me, I have nothing to do with you” line to the “OK” with a dismissive wave sendoff. And he brings up a lesson people can learn from watching Curb.

Did You Know: Where did the term ‘mulligan’ originate?

The Coronavirus pandemic has hit a giant pause button on fans being able to watch golf on TV, and in some cases, even kept people off courses. But while we hunker down and hope for a speedy return to normalcy, we can also use this time as an opportunity to learn more about the game we love. Here’s our latest installment of “Did you know?”
As the old saying goes, there are three sides to every story: your side, their side, and the truth somewhere in the middle. When it comes to the origin story of the term “mulligan,” there are three sides, though no one knows for sure which one is true.
DID YOU KNOW: The Original Rules of Golf fit on one (big) page
The basic definition of mulligan, a term most associated with golf, is a “do-over,” a second try after your first has gone awry. Every weekend golfer has taken a few mulligans in their lifetime, and there's no shame in that. After taking said mulligan, did you ever stop to think where the word came from? Considering you likely just pump..

DJ Shaq holds dance party in kitchen, has coronavirus on the ropes

Jason KoernerAnother day, another round of people doing various things from the confines of their homes. Sure, it's a little boring, but overall we're glad to report it.

But while we hunker down and hope for a speedy return to normalcy, we can also use this time as an opportunity to learn more about the game we love. Here’s our latest installment of “Did you know?”
Break out your modern, handy dandy Rules of Golf book and as you begin reading you'll find yourself asking the question “is this going to be on the mid-term?” It's confusing. It's complex. It's long. And it's still that way even after the rules were supposedly “simplified” in 2019. It's how we came up with a whopping 21 painful rules incidents that occurred last year alone.

Michael Jordan’s (new) playground, Phil Mickelson’s big tease, and Joe Buck roasts Justin Thomas’ hairline

Welcome to another edition of The Grind where Tiger Woods is the only Tiger King we will ever recognize. That being said, after binging on the Netflix documentary, I can honestly say it's the craziest thing I've ever seen. And I highly recommend watching just so you will understand the deluge of memes it has spawned.

Who are we kidding? Anyone reading this has already watched it. Well, except my parents. Seriously, give it a try, guys. What else do you have to do? Well, other than read The Grind, of course. We may not have Joe Exotic, but we've got a quirky cast of characters in their own right and some unusual plot lines as well. So let's dive in.
