NBA All-Star Dennis Rodman was inducted into the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame Friday night (8/12/11).
Rodman took to the podium in tears and gave an emotional speech targeting himself, his biological father and the people who had an special influence in his life.
Rodman talked about his biological father that left him when he was five years and apologized to his mother, wife and kids for failing them as a husband, son, and father.
He said his one true regret was that he wished he’d been a better father. “I had one regret,” Rodman said, choking up. “I wish I was a better father.”
