Spud Webb Launches Coaching Career in Rick's Cabaret Basketball League

Spud Webb is trying his luck in coaching for a group of players that don’t care to wear any jerseys.

No, this isn’t a shirts and skins scrimmage…it's topless basketball with girls!

The former Atlanta Hawks great has agreed to coach a team from Rick’s Cabaret upscale nightclubs. The league was formed to help fans get their basketball fix while waiting for the NBA season to start on Christmas Day.

“Rick’s Basketball Association” is comprised of teams featuring workers of Rick’s Cabaret 23 clubs that are a hit with pro athletes and many of their fans.

Webb has just agreed to the best coaching gig ever, but when you ask him, he’s already thinking about the “assets” that his players possess:

"

These ladies are fabulous and have obvious talents and skills. I can't think of a better way to entertain long-suffering NBA fans.

"

He has a point. Is there anything more entertaining (for men) than watching exotic dancers play basketball without the luxury of a jersey? I would like to know about these “obvious talents” the girls have, though.

My big question is, how are the refs and scorekeepers supposed to keep track of each player’s points and fouls? “Foul on the girl with the big star on her upper back."

Then again…we don’t know if they will even keep score.

I’m pretty sure the girls don’t care. Point guard Sky is just eager to show fans her skills:

"

The girls are really excited. We're practically busting out of our tops. We plan to give him a really warm welcome on Tuesday. I hear he's going to have us do a workout on Tuesday in front of the press. I can't wait to show off some of my moves.

"

I wonder how many press credentials are going to be handed out for this media session. A lot more than the Knicks practice nearby, that’s for sure.

It’s a funny idea that is going to certainly cause some buzz around the country. Too bad you won’t be able to see the highlights on Sportscenter.
