I saw it this morning and thought it was a great moment for him. I liked his jacket with the Bulls and Pistons and no mention of the Lakers or Spurs on it.

The part about his mom was moving and confusing at the same time. It was like he was praising her and ripping her at the same time.

LOL i didnt hear much praising. I think he MEANT it to be praising, but his emotions got the best of him. He OBVIOUSLY has a ton of anger towards his father and mother. I cant say i blame him.

Well at least he was trying to make amends in a way. Shows progress. And after all that happened to him regarding his parents, that shows a lot.

Yeah, i know how he feels and trust me, its hard. People hate on Dennis, but hes weird because he wants attention. He wants attention because he had two loser parents who didnt give him any. Deep down hes just a good guy, who is messed up.

Why? Are you trying to track me down or something?
Honestly, I have no idea what he said in his speech but it was pretty cool watching it and trying to understand what he was trying to say. Rodman, a great HOF'er.

Rodman doesn't mince words...He tells it how he sees it and keeps it real..He lives on his own terms regardless what people think...I think as far as the jacket with both Bulls and Pistons logos onn it , it shows his respect for the Bulls and how playing here was just as important to him as it was playing for the Pistons..And I may also be a message that he may be trying to influence the Bulls orginization that he really wants his number retired where the other half of his basketball heart is..(CHICAGO)..HE deserves that as much as the retirement of his number in Detroit and being in the hall of fame.

I think a lot of it had to do with him being a rebellious teen.

He was probably a lot to handle as a teen. I've been there. He probably saw some things and spoke up about it and got kicked out. He got taken in and that changed his life.

Either way, I'm not mad at Dennis. He made life how he saw it. It also looked like he was rubbing it in his mom's face a little bit too. Glad he brought it back and said he's gonna try to be better.

One thing about him, you never have to wonder how he feels. He will always let you know.

Dennis needs to get back in rehab. I hope he does.

Rodman cried when Detroit raised his number. :shrug: didya miss that? It was a game against the Bulls at the Palace.

Agreed. As someone in attendance, the game ruled.
