A wild ride inside the mind of Dennis Rodman, the NBA's greatest rebounder and America's most outspoken athlete. When featured on the cover of Sports Illustrated, Rodman became "America's most provocative athlete," selling more copies than any issue in a decade, aside from the swimsuit edition. Joining the Chicago Bulls in 1996, Rodman, with his tattoos and vibrant hair, is more akin to Mick Jagger than his teammate Michael Jordan. His sideline antics and notorious benchings have captivated fans, earning him a reputation as a rebel, similar to his on-again, off-again partner, Madonna. In this revealing memoir, Rodman shares his candid views on fame, money, race relations, sex, drugs, and rock-n-roll, recounting his life from prison for stealing watches to his daughter, his pride and joy. Unlike many celebrities who carefully manage their public images, Rodman is a refreshingly unique and uncompromising individual who defies conformity. This book is as intriguing and unforgettable as Rodman himself.

Whether it was helping Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls win three-straight NBA titles in the 1990's or showing up to a book signing in a dress and full makeup, Dennis Rodman has always distinguished himself as one of the great and most polarizing personalities in the sports world. The controversial and flamboyant former basketball star, who recently had a tryout with the Denver Nuggets and has played with the Long Beach Jam of the ABA in hopes of getting another shot at the National Basketball Association, is back in the national spotlight once again with I Should Be Dead Now. The new book from the two-time best-selling author details Rodman's struggles in life since he stopped playing in the NBA, including the breakup of his marriage to movie and TV star Carmen Electra and his problems with alcohol. I Should Be Dead Now is a look at the life of one of America's most recognizable sports stars since the lights of professional basketball stopped shining as brightly, and how Dennis Rodman hopes to make a successful return to the game that made him famous.
