I personally believe Riley is better than he is given credit for, certainly a better option than a 44 year old out of shape former player, regardless of how good he might have been.

I hope I'm wrong and Rivers shocks the world and common sense and does great....but I think it is really just a novelty act and a slap in the face to Riley Leonard!

By the way, I suppose this post will be considered negativity, I was perfectly willing to never mention Rivers or Ballard again, but you chose to keep piling on so I will continue to defend my position!
