EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW: Sarah Palin Responds to the Glen Rice Sex Allegation

A new book contends that former Alaska governor and vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin had a one-night stand with then-Michigan basketball star Glen Rice at an Alaska basketball tournament in 1987. Rice confirms the report.

SportsPickle sat down with Gov. Palin for an EXCLUSIVE interview.

(NOTE: All of the Palin quotes in this "interview" are verbatim quotes the former governor has said in the past.)

1. SportsPickle

   How many NBA players have you slept with?

2. Palin

   All of 'em, any of 'em that have been in front of me over all these years.

3. SportsPickle

   And Glen Rice is one of those players?

4. Palin

   You betcha.

5. SportsPickle

   What do you remember about that night?

6. Palin

   Rears his head and comes into the air space.

7. SportsPickle

   I see. That is very detailed. What did you say to him that initially caught his attention?

8. Palin

   Drill baby drill.

9. SportsPickle

   The book claims you had a great attraction to black men. Is that something you talked about with Mr. Rice?

10. Palin

    We discussed what was going on in Africa. And never, ever did I talk about, 'Well, gee, is it a country or is it a continent, I just don't know about this issue.'

11. SportsPickle

    Did you do any sexual role-playing with Mr. Rice?

12. Palin

    He who warned, uh, the British that they weren't gonna be takin' away our arms, uh, by ringing those bells, and um, makin' sure as he's riding his horse through town to send those warning shots and bells that we were going to be sure and we were going to be free, and we were going to be armed.

13. SportsPickle

    Was it just vaginal intercourse? Or was there … you know?

14. Palin

    It's right over the border.

15. SportsPickle

    So it's okay if I report that you engaged in- ?

16. Palin

    Please refudiate.

    Okay. What were your thoughts when Mr. Rice got out of bed and left?

18. Palin

    Don't retreat, reload.

19. SportsPickle

    Did you tape any of your encounters with NBA players?

20. Palin

    I'll try to find you some and I'll bring them to you.

21. SportsPickle

    Some people might characterize a woman with this sort of sexual history as "promiscuous" or worse. How would you characterize yourself?

22. Palin

    I'm a maverick.

23. SportsPickle

    Well, there's nothing wrong with having a healthy sex drive.

24. Palin

    I love the smell of emissions.

25. SportsPickle

    In light of this bombshell, what would you say to your supporters, who had hoped you were a beacon of virtue that could change America's course?

26. Palin

    How's that hopey, changey thing working out for ya?
