Same with Dennis Rodmann. Well, when Dennis was being interviewed one
time, he was being criticised about his lifestyle, and the reporter
asked him, "Don't you feel an obligation as a role model...?" Dennis
cut him short, and sternly said, "I don't get paid to be a role model.
I get paid to play basketball...."


It was Charles Barkely, not Dennis Rodman. And the quote was "I'm not a
role model, ... Just because I dunk a basketball doesn't mean I should
raise your kids."


You're right about Barkley. But, Tim is also right about Rodman, heard it
myself.
