Yeah, Rich definitely has filler dependencies. It would be cute except that, as a teacher, I notice that sort of thing all the time from my kids, so it's not actually that cute. But then again, one of my favorite professors in the world said "You know" a lot, and it was just an automatic thing, like a tick, and we just learned to ignore it as we listened to her talk about Aristotle's Poetics as related to Shakespeare :)

I think Rich doesn't even like to talk much. Not long ago you posted some video of an interview panel from some fanfest (I guess it was last year's) with him, Zito, Blanton, and Curt Young, and Harden barely said anything and looked kind of standoffish and uncomfortable the whole time, like he REALLY didn't want to be there, as opposed to Zito, who we all know is totally fine with things like that.
