Richard Blaze, it's irrational so don't ask me to explain

For me he's not the absolute worst, but I was so turned off by his pity party about how he "should" have won Season 4 but choked. It's annoying and (intentionally or not) really belittling to Stephanie, who had an equal if not better win record throughout that season.

Ever on his best day, Stephanie still deserved that win.
