It was Leno's sulking and threat toward NBC that he was no longer willing "to leave the Tonight Show" which led to him getting his 10:00 show in the first place.
Do you think it would have been better for Leno to tell NBC in 2004 or in 2009, like he did?
Fixed it just for you.

What? Leno never wanted to leave. He was backstabbed by Conan in 04 thus leaving the show in 09.
Who cares about the 10:00 show, Leno gave up the Tonight Show. I guess he should've done the honorable thing by leaving to FOX to go head to head with Conan and destroy him in ratings? Is that a better solution? Yup, that Leno is a mean spirited guy.
Conan is the cry baby here, he cried in 04, made selfish demands (backstabbing a friend) and is crying again now. Maybe he should man up and admit that he failed to deliver. If he was better than Leno NBC would't let him go. It's that simple.
Just think for a second and put yourself in Leno's shoes. Apply it to your life right now, how sweet it is to be backstabbed out of a job?
