Coming soon
Here's a look at the logo of Japan's new professional basketball league, which kicks off its opening season this November:
That's right. It's called the BJ League.
I'm guessing the marketing wizards behind this one just added a "B" for basketball to "J-League", the name of Japan's professional soccer organization. This could give a whole new meaning to the phrase, "He shoots... he scores!"

Watch your double-dribbling, if you know what I mean.

Ok, Bojack wins the double entendre contest!

Double entendres? You want double entendres?
(1) The league features an in-your-face style of play.
(2) The players really suck.
(3) League motto: "Get your head in the game."

Notice none of the Chicks who post here have made any double entendres? It's because we're above all that.
* just kidding*
It's because guys are far more creative when it comes to describing this! My only quip will be about a basketball player from Xavier (back when they beat Duke to go to the Big 8 circa in the late 80's) by the name of Tyrone Hill . They called him "T-Time" and would hold tea bags up in the air whenever he would enter or exit the game. Seems tailor-made to Japanese Basketball, and that's all I'm going to say about the matter!
