That was classic.

is leno really a "bad guy" in all of this?  i mean, i heard that if nbc wanted to get rid of leno they would of had to pay him $100MM+....to kill off conan it was only $45MM.  there was no way they were going to get rid of em both, even they both sucked balls in the ratings, so they took the cheaper route to try and salvage their network. 

nbc is the one fucking up, leno and conan were just caught in the middle.

Who do you think put that 100M clause in the contract?  Leno knew his show was going to fail, and he knew that Conan starting off wasn't going to do well vs Letterman.  And Leno back in the day let his manager do all the work, which included some shady shit that eventually forced Johnny Carson out.

are you saying conan knew he would fail, too?  since he had the same thing in his contract?  i dont think anyone went into this saying "oh, i know im going to fail".  they put that in their contract to protect themselves.  if neither of them had it nbc probably would have fired both of them. 

if i had a job with any type of contract then i would put something like that in my contract, too.  youd be stupid not to.
