Booze and drugs, outside of moderation, can make people do all kinds of insane shit. No doubt.
Rodman's always been weird and sometimes self-destructive. He's a character. Maybe he's always been altered during his time in the public view? IDK.
I think the big excuse maker in this story is his agent. "Dennis boozed it up and made an ass outta himself because people expected him to behave diplomatically on what Rodman himself billed as a diplomacy tour." That's essentially what the agent claims. Weak. Dennis boozed it up because he's a booze hound who's not taken his addiction seriously, by all indications.
Same shit with David Cassidy. His agent blames attorneys questioning Cassidy vigorously in a lawsuit (which Cassidy initiated) for the fact that Cassidy got his third DUI in under a couple of years. Bullshit. He has an addiction and despite claiming to be rehabbed, he wasn't willing or able to manage it and stop drinking.
So, they both head back to rehab and hopefully, this time, realize that they have serious addiction problems and become committed to managing them for the rest of their lives (instead of doing it just for public perception again), so they don't kill themselves or somebody else.
