Well, I don't think people feel she disliked Billy or Rick.

By all accounts, she got on well with them, and she's pals with Billy. I was just saying Lindsey and Stevie being gone didn't affect her decision to hang it up (if anything, Christine's decision affected Stevie's decision to quit). That decision had already been made independently of personnel changes. There was an opportunity in 1997 to go out on top, and she chose that, giving us a real gift.

Luckily for us, she decided that retirement sucks.
