I heard on the radio this morning that he(and his lawyers) put a stipulation into his contract that says if he gets pushed out of his timeslot (or more specifically his contract), that NBC will be required to pay him $100million......so im sure he'll be just fine.

that's too bad. Always liked Conan more than Leno. Leno is way pass his prime. Only old people and soccer moms find Leno funny.

Classy letter from Conan. NBC blows. Their management is certifiably nuts.

NBC seems clueless, but what else is new? The Leno show was never a good idea and the content sucks, its like the mangled wreck of the Top Gear abortion and a serious lack of content for shows. NBC has a huge love affair with Leno, so its not going to let him go, and I hope Conan leaves for Fox.
