I join his fans in wishing him the very best as he turns the page .

He always had time to stop and sign for the fans. I have numerous things signed by him including the Bulls' program that he was on the front for a homestand. Chris, thank you for what you did for the Bulls organization but more importantly thank you for being the person that you are.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-502524904778687735.post-76441212087588063082011-03-05T10:25:25.598-05:002011-03-05T10:25:25.598-05:00I have always liked Richard for a number of reason...I have always liked Richard for a number of reasons, but a big part of it is that he has really embraced being a part of the community here. I know that so many minor league guys just think about AAA (and the lower teams) as stops along the way, but the Bulls are part of the community here and I always have a closer connection with those players that seem to be part of that community (EJ, and Fernando are the other two recent players that come to mind). It is sad to see Chris shut things down, but I think it is great to have him around town still and I really look forward to listening to him and Neil on the radio.DRRnoreply@blogger.com
