Did he actually say that?  I listened to one of the interviews yesterday and I can't recall him saying that but in other interviews it's quite possible.  From what I recall, the name change was to make him more unique.  He brought up richard wolfe as one example.

Something I think a lot of you are forgetting,is that " Richie" switched his name to "Dick" probably to honor the great Dick Weber,which the tournament was named for. The Dick Weber PBA championships.

It was distinctly stated somewhere, by "Dick" himself, that the name change was due to him now being a father and wanting to project a more fatherly, mature image.

 

 It had NOTHING to do with respect for Dick Weber.

i personally think his "new" name fits him perfectly. i used to bowl with richie in a few tourneys

here and there, and he always came off as a prick, treated people with little to no respect and had a filthy mouth. i figured by now hed be more grown up but it doesnt seem so.
