| I think we can safely say Jim wasn't the Captain of the good ship DOTV, and when it started sinking, rather than staying he bailed out, got on a raft and paddled as quickly as he could before he got sucked under. When you have a colossal fuck up like DOTV, the finger pointing and dissociation with that fuck up inevitably occurs. Jim bailed out on DOTV and I don't blame him for doing so. It turned into a giant pile of shite and if I was him I'd have bailed on it too. Telling people you were fired makes a better story to tell than saying you cut and run. > It doesn't equate.
