This Is Why You Hire a Darren Prince
What can I say about Dennis Rodman that hasn't already been said about Liz Taylor on a year-long acid trip? Hmmm....I'll have to get back to you on that one. Apparently Mr. Rodman uses the holiday of Halloween to dress himself in outrageous fashion—who knew?! If this is how the former rebounding king wants to stay in the public light then I'm down, it's always worked in the past. Yeah, I only posted this because we're all waiting so patiently for these football games to start. By the way, it's worth noting that listening to Chris Berman's cockney accent is only slightly more uncomfortable than shaving my balls with a straight razor and dipping them in a glass of warm gin. If you'd like to kill some more time you can see all of the pictures over at Flash Warner.

Darren Prince Understands Athlete Felonies
We can't exactly criticize anyone else for attempting to capitalize off the Maurice Clarett sentencing yesterday: We've certainly earned our fair share of frequent flier mileage from the story. More »
deadspin hall of fame
Way back in the day, we took another one of our Field Trips to see a Dennis Rodman book signing. In retrospect, we're not sure why we decided to cover a Rodman signing; "Dancing With The Stars" must have not been on that night.

Rodman Keeps His Low Profile
Hey, Dennis Rodman made some "news" over the weekend. After showing up at a book signing scandalously dressed in revolutionary drag, Rodman apparently showed up at a DJ Tiesto show at Crobar and got himself in a wee bit of trouble. More »

Waiting For Rodman ...
Let's hear it for the people who waited for three hours outside of Kezar Pavilion in San Francisco on Tuesday for Dennis Rodman to show up for a book signing. (Who gives you coast-to-coast Rodman coverage? Deadspin, that's who). And what an occasion it was. The weather was cool and crisp, the milling throng of 11 fans orderly and reserved, the local police on high alert. The event was otherwise noticeable only for its complete lack of Rodman anywhere on the premises. He never showed up.
For those who don't know, Rodman plays for the Tijuana Dragons of the minor league American Basketball Association. The team was scheduled to play the San Francisco Pilots last night at 7 p.m., with Rodman slated to arrive at 4 p.m. to sign copies of his book, I Should Be Dead By Now. But when 5 p.m. came and went without any sign of him, and then 6, the few people who had showed up, autograph pens in hand, slowly dispersed into the fog.
"I kept calling his hotel," said beleaguered Pilots chief operating officer Chris Conley. "They said he was working out. They're saying now that he may sign books after the game. I don't know; clearly we are dealing with Rodman Rules."
Rodman did show up for the game — 10 minutes late (they held the start time for him). This reporter was there for the action, and let us just say, a little warm-up time is essential when one is 44 years old. Rodman had none; stretching out a bit, then running right into the game where he immediately: 1. Threw away an inbound pass under his own basket for an opposition layup; 2. Took his first shot — an airball; 3. Was consistently the last man back on defense; and 4. Grabbed some pine five minutes into the first quarter. Oh, by the way, he prefers the lime Gatorade.
Our favorite moment came during the break between the first and second quarters. Rodman grabbed a ball to take some practice shots, but when his first shot hit the front rim and rolled to the opposite side of the floor, he waved his hand in disgust and returned to the bench.
In all Rodman logged about 25 minutes, had seven assists, four rebounds and didn't score. The weirdest thing was, the crowd of about 350 or so didn't really seem to be there to see him (the Pilots drew more in their home opener two weeks before). Only a small contingent of press seemed to be jazzed about him being there. We left midway through the fourth quarter, with the Pilots ahead 113-71.
In case we didn't mention it, the Dragons really, really suck.
So that's your Dennis Rodman update for today, and we'd like to add that we were disappointed not to have seen his publicist, Darren Prince, anywhere. We wanted to impress him with our impeccable grooming. More »
