OFF THE WIRE
Beat it, WNBA — Bikini Basketball League is coming soon...
Thirty-five days, gentlemen. Thirty-five days until the arrival of the Bikini Basketball League (or the Bikini Basketball Basketball Association, according to their logo). The six teams in the new bathing-suit-clad league hope to build on the success of other underdressed sporting events (we're thinking the Lingerie Football League, not Shirts vs. Skins at your local YMCA) and promises to be "a competitive basketball league." So in other words, it'll be nothing like the WNBA. So far the teams include the New York Knockouts, the L.A. Ice and the Orlando Lady Cats — who are probably already better than the NBA's own Charlotte Bobcats. [Source]
