To be fair to Leno, he didn't want to retire. NBC forced him to in order to try to keep Conan back in 2004. When 2009 came around and Leno was still garnering big ratings, NBC freaked out and promised him a primetime show instead of letting him go to a competing network. So really the blame lies totally with NBC and their mismanagement of both Leno and Conan IMO.
