    leaving GS was the worst move he ever made. He could've stayed there and won over and over. He would've been forgiven for joining them in time. His achievements would have overshadowed the criticism. But he is a thin-skinned in-his-feelings kinda person, let that idiot green run him off, and messed things up for himself. Looks worse since GS won another chip after he left.
