I wish the guys would just stop talking about Richie leaving. They are never going to tell us what really went on, so it's not like we need to be waiting with baited breath. And if you, my dearest reader are, stop. We will never ever ever know. Not even in their memoirs will we get the real story.
So stop talking about it and spare us from this kind of nonsense. Just tell the reporters "sorry, I don't think there is any more to say about that", please Jon (and Richie).
