leg to see where I was at compared to
high school,” Demps said. “I am not
where I was.”
Demps said his left leg is only 60
percent better. Practicing three times a
week doesn’t help the healing process.
For a speedster, not being able to
run at full speed has been frustrating,
Demps said.
“I’m used to everyone knowing
me for speed,” Demps said. “I’m used
to going off my speed to make up for
most of the mistakes I make. Right
now, I can’t afford to make mistakes.”
Once spring football is over,
Demps plans to work every day
strengthening his leg.
“I’m going to focus on getting my
leg back up to par,” Demps said. “I’m
going to stay here all summer and get
it back to where it was. Hopefully by
the season, I will be 100 percent.”

Electro, Rodman call it quits
LOS ANGELES (AP) - Eccentric
basketball rebounding star Dennis
Rodman and his actress wife Carmen
Electra have called their marriage quits
-again.
“Carmen Electra and Dennis
Rodman have announced that they
have mutually agreed to end their 6
month-old marriage under amicable
circumstances. Divorce papers were
filed today in Los Angeles on behalf of
Miss Electra. Miss Electra and Mr.
Rodman are and will remain friends,”
publicist Matt Labov said Tuesday as
he spoke for the two.
Rodman, 37, and Electra, 26, were
married in Las Vegas on Nov. 14 after
what was reported to be an all-night
bender. Nine days later, Rodman cried
fraud and filed for an annulment. He
said he was of unsound mind when he
recited his vows.
Electra, whose real name is Tara
Patrick, was with Rodman at Planet
Hollywood in February when he
announced he would be joining the Los
Angeles Lakers.
During that news conference,
Rodman said he and his wife were hap
pily married, but living in separate
homes.
Electra attended several games to
watch her husband play.
Then on March 13, Rodman
received permission to leave the
Lakers to resolve personal issues. He
rejoined the team in Orlando on March
21.
The seven-time rebounding cham
pion, who has helped teams win five
NBA championships, insisted the
eight-day break had nothing to do with
drinking, gambling, smoking or mari
tal problems.
Rodman later stated it was Electra
who encouraged him to return.
Rodman was an instant hit with
fans when he joined the team. He

helped the Lakers win nine straight
games.
However, the team has performed
erratically since Rodman returned
from his leave of absence. One of the
lowest points came Saturday night
when Rodman was ejected after pick
ing up two technical fouls in the final
minutes of an 81-76 loss to visiting
Golden State.
