<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Dennis Rodman speaks out in his outrageous autobiography. His sideline antics and celebrated bendings have captivated sports fans as much as his record-breaking on-court performances. Here, Rodman shares his opinions on everything from fame, money, the game and race relations to sex, drugs and cross-dressing--with all new revelations for the paperback edition!<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>A wild ride inside the glowing head of Dennis Rodman--the NBA's greatest rebounder and America's most outspoken and outrageous athlete.</b> <p/>When <i>Sports Illustrated</i> put the man they call America's most provocative athlete on their cover, they sold more copies than any other issue they had sold in a decade (except the swimsuit issue). Why? Because Dennis Rodman has more in common with Mick Jagger than with his teammate Michael Jordan. With his body-covering tattoos and ever-changing fluorescent hair, Rodman's sideline antics and celebrated benchings captivated sports fans as much as his record-breaking on-court performances and earned him a reputation as a rebel with the same penchant for shocking behavior as his on-again off-again squeeze, Madonna. <p/>In <i>Bad as I Wanna Be</i> he shares his surprising and candid opinions on: <br>- Mortality: "If I die young, everybody's going to say they saw it coming."<br>- His game: "I never want to score. Never. I want to rebound."<br>- Having it all: "From the outside I had everything I could want. From the inside I had nothing but an empty soul and a gun in my lap."<br>. . . And so much more, including his life, from going to prison for stealing watches to his daughter, the light of his life. <p/>At a time when most celebrities and professional athletes try to control their public personas like politicians and refrain from expressing their true beliefs, Dennis Rodman is a refreshingly unique, uncompromising individual who both transcends his world and refuses to conform to it. <i>Bad as I Wanna Be</i> is as candid, intriguing, and unforgettable as he is.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Dennis Rodman</b> is a seven-time NBA rebounding champion. He earned five NBA championships rings in his 14-year career: 1989 and '90 with the Detroit Pistons and 1996, '97, and '98 with the Chicago Bulls. He has also been named Defensive Player of the Year twice (1990, '91); All-NBA Third Team twice (1992, '95); All-Defensive First Team seven times (1989-92, '93, '95, '96); and an NBA All-Star twice (1990, '92). In 2011, he was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame. Rodman is the author of two other books: <i>Bad As I Wanna Be</i> (1994), a <i>New York Times</i> bestseller that reached #1; and <i>Walk on the Wild Side</i> (1997).
