Because Too Much (Rod Benson) is Never Enough

PrintIn an effort to bolster our legitimacy, we here at the CGB have managed to score an exclusive interview with Cal alum, comedic genius, white Paul Shirley, and all-around awesome human being, Rod Benson. What kind of things did we ask? Well, that's the thing. We didn't ask them yet, so we'll open it up to you, the readers. Rod has assured us that he'll do his best to respond in a timely fashion - so what do you want to ask Rod Benson? And don't forget to check out Avinash's recap of the NFL Draft.
The opinions expressed in a FanPost are, in every way, reflective of the opinions of every California Golden Blogs Marshawnthusiast. Moreover, they are reflective of every employee of SBNation, including Tyler "Blez" Bleszinski.

This is great. This will also probably bolster the readership of CGB, because people will probably view it more as more legitimate (not saying it isn’t right now). Good job guys.
I'm old enough to understand. Jerks.
That legitimacy thing was sarcastic, by the way – expect us to reference that every time we do something even semi-legit.
Still happy over the fact that the Nets signed Ryan Anderson. Now if only they can sign Leon Powe after this year...

I wasn’t referencing you. I really think it will get CGB a few more readers. He needs to give us a shout out though, which may be a bit much to ask.

Question
Ask him what he thought of the Alumni game. Also, what it was like to play against Fisher in that game.
or
ask him if he can do some pro bono blogging for CGB. Not that you guys don’t do a good job…but hell, there’s no such thing as having too much rod benson.
Double true!

Perhaps you could drop a question or two.

Question(s)
Take your pick:
1. How does the overall skill level and competitiveness of the Euroleague & French League compare with the NBDL?
2. Which Euroleague & French League players caught you by surprise as far as their basketball skills?
3. Who do you still keep in touch with from the Cal team and who’s playing professionally now?

1) What do you miss most about Berkeley?
2) What can we, as internet nerds, do to spread the Boom Tho movement?
3) Would you entertain coming back to Cal as a tight end for the football team? I’ve heard rumors that basketball players make good tight ends.

Who did you bust more in practice? Leon or RA?

Through other CGB interviews and crack investigative (and legit) reporting, we have learned that charter flights shared by the bball team and the dance team have been fun. Please describe the fun-ness and the funny things that happened during those trips. And, pictures please. Drawings will suffice.

Any competition between Cal bball players and fball players? Or is it one of mutual respect…?
