"Jesus, everything ends badly, otherwise it wouldn't end."
--Brian Flanagan, Cocktail
Whether that sentiment is true or not on a universal scale, it's certainly true of the tenure as head coach of the Blue Jackets for Todd Richards. I like Todd Richards. He was a great person to be around. I never once felt like I was being talked down to, even if I asked him what could be considered a stupid question. Everyone I know from the Columbus media will pretty much all say he's a great guy.
That's all well and good, but it goes beyond that.
