Finally Rodman gets to the Hall of Fame, there is justice

Of all of the articles I go through during a day, this one was one that made me finally feel like there is justice in this world.  Will Graves, Associated Press Sports Writer article titled Rodman, Mullin lead 2011 Hall of Fame class.

It reported that “Here's one the player who created chaos on — and sometimes off — the court never expected: Hall of Famer. Rodman headlined the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame's 2011 class announced on Monday at the Final Four, a group that includes former Dream Team member Chris Mullin and Stanford coach Tara VanDerveer.  "It's just unreal," Rodman said.  "I looked at the way I am, and I thought I wouldn't get in," Rodman said.  When informed of the honor last week, Rodman thought it was a prank. He figured there was no way the voters could get past his outlandish antics and focus on a career in which he became one of the best rebounders in league history.” 

Finally it has come to the effectiveness of one’s actions instead of how they spur reaction.  I do not agree with the antics of Dennis Rodman but I do appreciate the job that he done on the court.  He has set a standard that may never be equaled because when he was called upon to do a job, he did it.  He chased balls, sacrificed his body for his team and grabbed more rebounds than anyone else.  If it is the choice of many to not give him credit for the antics, I can deal with that but to deny him the credit he earned on the court is ridiculous.
