Hey guys and gals and everything in between WildfireMicro here with an In-Character interview of the new user @PBS new player Dennis Rodman! This interview was extremely fun to do, and unlike the one with Xave this one will be completely in character with Dennis. So without any further ado let's begin!
Me: So, who are you and what is your background in life and what brought you to this point?
Dennis: My name is Dennis Rodman born in New Jersey. My life growing up was tough. Dad left early and mom had a lot of jobs to make enough income for us. I poured my heart and soul into basketball early on in life. I was luckily enough to get drafted and have a very successful career in the NBA. I've now realized that I want to show my dominance in sports in another league.
Me: I see. You definitely seem excited to start playing another sport. How was your time in the NBA? I am pretty sure you won a few titles.
Dennis: I loved the NBA and I made sure that my impact was felt. Got 5 rings to my name already and I'm hoping that number will go up soon! I wasn't the guy who gets you thirty points a night or anything but I made sure to get my boards and lock down the opposing teams best player. Defense and the dirty work is where I come from. My new job is to defend the QB, I won't let anyone hit my QB for free.
Defense is very under appreciated. Its the little details that really make the difference. I've started studying players around the league already trying to get an edge up.
Me: So what made you chose offensive linemen over a defensive position?
Dennis: I feel its an area where I can shine. Like with rebounds I have an almost sixth sense for where the ball is going to go. I think I can do the same on as an offensive lineman reading the opposing teams and instead of protecting the paint I'm protecting the QB. Plus I'm getting up there in age so missing a step of quickness is not as important on the OL, to me at least.
Me: I understand. OL is always in demand in this league as well, so you will be a high commodity in the draft.
Dennis: Its for the most part a thankless job but someone has to do it. I'd love to hear my name called early in the draft this time around. Although if I get taken late someone will regret not taking my earlier.
Me: Good sir, keep that energy. It will serve you well. Now do you keep in contact with your old teammates at all?
Dennis: Yeah I reach out from time to time. Me and Jordan talk from time to time. I also go out to brunch once a month with Isiah Thomas and a few others from that Pistons championship in 89.
Me: What do they think of this new endeavor from you?
Dennis: They sure like it a lot more than me being a Peace Ambassador to North Korea. They're always giving me shit over that. But they've been supportive of this new path.
Me: Alright, have any of the DSFL teams interested you early on?
Dennis: I'll be suiting up this Thursday for the Tijuana Luchadores. Really excited to play with those guys. They've been great helping me with the transition. Gotta keep Elessar Jones safe in this upcoming game.
Me: I see. How do you like it in Tijuana?
Dennis: The weather has been great. Its unfortunate that I speak exactly 0 Spanish but I'll get by some how. I've loving the food they have to offer down here. So bright and vibrant.
Me: I'd imagine. Do you like any of the ISFL team logos yet?
Dennis: I think there is a ton of good logos in the league. Teams that particularly interest me would be Chicago Butchers, it'd be nice to be back in the city, and the Orange County Otters because that's hella cute. Although I haven't looked too much at the ISFL teams since I'm getting prepped for the DSFL.
Me: Yeah. There are a lot of great logos, but where would you put an expansion team?
Dennis: Thats a good question. I think it would be interesting to expand our overseas teams. I know we have a team in Germany but perhaps a London, Paris, or maybe a team from Sydney. It would be a nice reason to visit some pretty places and hit some new demographics.
Me: The London Royals exist, but I have had an idea for a team called the Sydney Spiders.
Dennis: Syndey Spiders could for sure be a cool team. They certainly have enough spiders down there. You could theme jerseys based on different spiders.
Me: Yeah, like a black widow colour rush.
Dennis: Maybe a spider web all over the helmet too. It could be really unique.
Me: Definitely. Now have you been able to get along with all your new teammates?
Dennis: Good I've felt a warm reception from them. Its also nice that most of them are at least vaguely familiar with me. Makes introductions easier.
Me: I bet that would make things a lot easier. Now what do you think will be the hardest part of transitioning to the ISFL from the NBA?
Dennis: For me it will be maintaining weight. My play weight between the two sports is very different. Its tough to keep that extra 100 pounds on. But honestly the transition hasn't been that difficult. I had a harder time transitioning from the NBA to the over seas teams I played on in the mid 2000s.
Me: I bet you have already gotten those frequent flyer miles ready. If you could chose any of your old teammates to join you in this endeavor, who would it be?
Dennis: 0 question in my mind it's Shaq. Take that big boy and throw him anywhere on the field and he's making a difference. Although the less he has to run the better.
Me: Shaq as a linebacker would be scary as hell. I think that Shaq would have been more truly unstoppable if he trained harder then he did, which is a scary thought.
Dennis: Skinny Orlando Shaq was different kinda beast. Plus imagine him as a TE with that height, strength, and jumping ability. You can't guard that and you don't want to get blocked by that.
Me: Definitely not. Now I will let you go, thank you for the interview.
Dennis: Thanks for taking the time for this interview!
Alright this interview definitely gave me a good grasp on what PBS wants to do with Dennis Rodman. I hope all of you enjoyed it, and watch out for PBS in the upcoming drafts. Thank you for reading and I hope to see you all on the field!
