I share your feelings for Richardson. It's funny...those whose memories go back a long way here know that I've always been pretty hard on Jason. I was wrong to be that way...the guy never pretends to be anything other than what he is, and what he is and has been is a true gamer.
Richardson is heart and soul, and I would love to see him win a title in Oakland. Second banana, third banana, fifth...I don't care, but he deserves it as much as anyone else.
