In the world of fast-food chicken, KFC is deadlocked in a tight race with Popeye's for nationwide supremacy right now. So when Dwyane Wade (who is apparently a former KFC employee) posted a tweet recently indicating that he's looking for a job during the NBA lockout, KFC wasted no time trying to turn it into a publicity stunt by sending out a letter offering Wade a position as an honorary captain at a KFC drive-thru window. And while it doesn't pay much—in fact, it doesn't pay anything—the chicken chain has agreed to make a donation in D-Wade's name to their Colonel's Scholars charity if he agrees to work the window.

You asked for a gig, son. So, you ready to suit up or what? [via TMZ]
