Dennis Rodman Is (Sort Of) Making a Comeback

Dennis RodmanDennis Rodman may want to be voted into the Hall of Fame, but he's not making it easy on himself. No, I'm not talking about another high-profile incident that may taint his reputation (if that's still possible), but rather his resistance to simply hanging up his sneakers. From the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle:
The Moe the merrier for the Rochester RazorSharks?

The American Basketball Association's defending champions are negotiating with former NBA star Dennis Rodman to play in one of the final two regular-season home games (Tuesday or Thursday of next week) as the team's celebrity "13th Man."

Rodman might not score more points than popular bar owner Moe Alaimo did last Thursday night in his cameo appearance (two), but he'd probably grab more rebounds.
As we mentioned last month, a player needs to stop playing professional basketball for at least five years before he can be inducted into the Hall of Fame. Granted, the Worm hasn't appeared in an NBA game since the 2000 season, but he's since had stints in the ABA, the British Basketball League as well as a game in Finland. I don't know if appearing as the "13th" man for an ABA team technically resets the clock for eligibility, but if so I hope his over-whelming need to be recognized now won't outweigh common sense.
