What’s up y’all?!  Here is the dirt…

Of course it's Dennis Rodman

Dennis Rodman done agreed to go to rehab for his alcohol abuse…as long as it’s out patient.  According to E! he has agreed to see a counselor for his “issues.”  Personally, I believe that the Rod-Man needs to go to rehab for something just a tad bit stronger than alcohol…but that’s just me.  Nuff said… (more…)
