    He does kinda sound gay but who cares what his sexual preference is, you think the Bulls cared what Rodman did in his free time? No as long as he got 15 rebounds and played basketball. Hopefully either him, Cousin, Dawkins, can be a good big on the next level and I imagine that one of them will be a sleeper Camby type. Sounds like an intelligent, nice person, hope he gets a legitimate chance and makes the most of it.

    Can we sign Benson to the minimum and just have him put up a new blog post after every game on rockets.com? That's a much better investment than Brian Cook.

    Better interview than Shane though, who's always got his filter set to Biggio.

    James White will just have to get in line...

    Benson was indeed an interesting character. I heard "Twilight" and I knew it would be interesting.

    Newley seemed more like a normal guy.

    Hope one of these two can contribute somehow!

    Battier achieves a jaw-dropping level of bland-ness in his intervies. His mastery of that craft is a beauty to behold.

    He tweeted about it the other day.. saying much the same that he was internally narrating his life overly dramatic because of it.

    Quick -- what other Cal poli sci major starred in the NBA?

    That would be KJ.

    Oh, and I also studied poli sci at Cal. Funny, they never asked me to go out for the hoops team, though. :)
