The opening montage shows pretty clearly that this is about Al getting humiliated in a game of tennis... but there are plenty of good gags and an awesome punchline for the ending. There's another short that follows The Good Life as well, but since I only caught it on VHS as a young teenager I still don't know its official title... but the short continues on Al's really bad day with a lot more side-splitting country club humor as he gets pranked by his "buddies" in the locker room, and basically one thing after another keeps going wrong for him until he finally figures out a way to manage his misfortune toward the end. These are both great examples of the cool little short films HBO used to show as part of their Short Take feature in between the full-length movies.
