Lingerie Bowl III Recruits Rodman!
Dennis rebounds with role as Lingerie Football League Commisioner!
June 14, 2005 - Excitement is really beginning to build for Lingerie Bowl III, Horizon Productions' simple yet effective solution to the bane of the Super Bowl: The halftime show. Horizon's newly formed Lingerie Football League participates in this 'Bowl of its own, broadcast live, and available on a pay-per-view basis as an alternative to the Super Bowl's mid-game entertainment.

Entertainment is the key here, and Horizon might as well be a locksmith. Their back of tricks (and chicks) includes the likes of Adrianne Curry, Jenny McCarthy, Cindy Margolis, Trishelle Cannatella, Ryan Starr, and a fat Rolodex's worth of other hot names. We knew something was coming, but we didn't expect it would be Dennis.

Rather than jack bits and pieces of their press release, rearrange them to our liking, and interject here and there with more bad puns, jokes, and pathetiphors, we'll just tear out the whole page and let you read it unmolested.


Dennis Rodman Set to Tackle Supermodels in Lingerie Bowl III

Former Basketball Great and All-Around Bad Boy Will Serve as Commissioner of the Lingerie Football League and Play a Secretive Role in Lingerie Bowl III

HOLLYWOOD, CA--(MARKET WIRE)--Jun 8, 2005 -- Horizon Productions, Inc. is excited to announce the hiring of perhaps one of the most recognized figures in all of entertainment and sports, Dennis Rodman, who will serve as commissioner of the Lingerie Football League. Rodman plans to institute an immediate initiative throughout the league that will include random cosmetic surgery testing, monitoring of all uniform fittings and mandatory end zone dances. "Dennis will truly bring yet another level of excitement and buzz to the league and Lingerie Bowl III; expect the unexpected," said Creator & Executive Producer Mitch Mortaza.

In addition to his role as league commissioner, Rodman will also have an on-field presence at this year's Lingerie Bowl which sources indicate will include lingerie, fire and a cage; however, plans are being kept extremely secretive. "The Lingerie Bowl has become a fan favorite because it's an entertaining alternative to Super Bowl's boring and conservative halftime shows," said Dennis Rodman. He further added, "Which would you rather watch at halftime? Lip-synching POP stars or Supermodels playing full contact TACKLE football in lingerie. With my guidance and rule changes, Lingerie Bowl III will be the BIGGEST Super Bowl party in the world!"

Rodman will be part of the LIVE celebrity-studded halftime sports & entertainment extravaganza viewed by millions on Sunday, Feb 5, 2006, that will also feature Jenny McCarthy, Cindy Margolis, William "The Refrigerator" Perry, Willa Ford, Adrianne Curry, Trishelle Cannatella and Ryan Starr, amongst others.

It is really sad. The fact that the article calls this a rebound (I see the pun and wonder if it was intended) for his career maybe be the saddest part of it. Love or hate Dennis Rodmon you have to admit he is a basketball great. It is sad to watch him destroy what little bit of pride, dignity, or career he once had after he's done working this sordid circus. I mean who watches this crap anyways and on PPV none the less? Sadly somebody must because this is the third one they are putting on. Somebody needs to call up Dennis and tell him if does not want to be forever remember as a joke but the NBA great that he once was to just stop. Maybe we can get Carman to do it for us. I hear they are still close.
