Brad Riter update and stuff

Well, Brad Riter is still alive. In an interview by Allen Pergament of the Buffalo News, Riter took blame for being fired but admits he was sick of the situation at WGR550.
“I take complete responsibility for it,” Riter said. “My only real problem is I was asked to do things that no one else was asked to do.”

By that, he means his regular shift was in the evenings, but he also was called in to pinch hit often in the mornings and afternoon. It wasn’t the ideal circumstance for someone who acknowledges he has had a problem with ignoring alarms and being late since grade school.

He said lateness was an issue a handful of times in his 10-year career at WGR, but bristled at the suggestion it was a recurring problem. “To act as though it is something that keeps happening is excessive,” he said.

For now, he’s enjoying watching a Bills game like a regular fan and not having the constant pressure of planning to do a three-hour nightly show. “It is going to let me enjoy watching sports again.”

That phrase might surprise people who believe covering sports isn’t so much a job as a joy. But it resonated with me. It’s how I felt 25 years ago after I covered my last game to become a TV critic. So don’t cry for Riter. Truthfully, I believe he’ll find sports happiness again sooner rather than later.

Some Jets fan is suing the New England Patriots for cheating and destroying the integrity of the game. I love it.
