If You Aren't Watching the Bikini Basketball League, Then You are Doing it Wrong

Deiondra Sanders

"Deion Sanders was a two-sport athlete. Now his daughter is making a name for herself by playing a sports league named after a two-piece bathing suit. Deiondra Sanders, daughter of the Hall of Fame football player, has agreed to play in the upstartBikini Basketball League this season. Featuring several former professional basketball players including some who have played in the WNBA and overseas, the league is a bit of a misnomer as the players wear shorts and sports bras and not actual bathing suits. Still, it amounts to a little more material than Deion’s famous bandanna he’d wear on his head on game day. And even though Deiondra's father was known for his flamboyant personality including gold chains and exuberant touchdown dances, his daughter's signing with the league didn’t originally sit well with dear old dad."

First of all, Deion named his daughter Deiondra. That's the ultimate ego-maniac move from Deion and I wouldn't expect anything less. Literally just added a "dra" onto his own name and was like, "Boom, genius." Anyways, yeah no shit your dad isn't happy about you joining the Bikini Basketball League. Deion is the most electric player in NFL history and now his daughter is playing a professional version of strip basketball. Reminds me of how Samuel L. Jackson disowned his daughter after she started doing porn.

But, in all reality this isn't that bad, they don't even wear real bikinis. It's sports bras and shorts. And its not even like any of them are really that hot. Link here. It's basically like the WNBA was just like "alright, everybody take your shirts off and maybe we will get more fans." But they actually have me sold, and if you don't think I'll be tuning in to the BBA tip-off night then you don't know me as a human being. Opening night party at my house and if you dare bring vegetables or a taco 12 pack to my house then you're never invited back.

PS- The team names are hilarious. Orlando Lady Cats. Miami Spice. Minnesota Mist. Atlanta Peaches. Illinois Heart. Philadelphia Diamonds. It's like the "Original 6" in the NHL.

PPS- How the fuck did Illinois get a team?
