Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News
Tuesday, February 26, 2013

Former NBA star Dennis Rodman and some of the Harlem Globetrotters arrived Tuesday in North Korea for a trip billed as "basketball diplomacy." They will stop by national monuments, visit an animation studio and run a basketball camp for North Korean children. Bringing the pierced and provocative Rodman into the regimented and isolated country is aimed at "finding common ground on the basketball court," said Shane Smith, the founder of the media company Vice, which is filming the delegation for an HBO special.

They gave Rodman top billing and not the Globetrotters??
Now that's what I call totally unfair.

He filled more minority slots than just being black.

I am afraid to ask which undefined slots you are probably correct about, Hanover. It can't be gay because Rodman is another planet in that respect.

I don't know why, but my eyes momentarily played a trick on me. For a moment I thought the headline read, "Dennis Rodman visits Earth". That made me chuckle.

Whatever Rodman's sexuality is I feel sorry for those who have to share it with him.

Don't you know Rodman is an alien? The proof is here, even if you don't believe this.

At the end of the first Men in Black movie, there's an amusing scene where Will Smith's character reveals that Dennis Rodman is actually an alien from the planet Solaxiant 9, and Linda Fiorentino's character says, "Not much of a disguise."
