First it seems we both agree that whether he went with Sander or watson he was really in a no win situation.
To address this part of your post............
Lastly, if you were paying someone millions of dollars for sure, would you want something for the millions.
Let me put is this way. if you purchased a car on a five year loan and after four years that car kept breaking down when you drove it and when it was running it couldn't even get you up the hill on your driveway in order to make it into the garage, wouldn't you already realize what you got for your money?
At that point would you trust that car to be dependable enough to use as your daily driver to and from work? I suppose you could just keep risking it already knowing there will be a lot of days you'll be calling a tow truck. But at some point i would think you would depend on a different car and leave that one in the garage.

Just sayin'.
