I agree it was about egos pride and hurt feelings, but it was a 2 way streak. Yeah the FO could have handled the interpersonal better, but at the same point KC could have been the better man (with about 50mil in his pocket) and let the past be the past. It's clear he didn't, and now he will be gone.

I will be interested to see how his career goes, personally, I expect he will have some similar drama at his next stop.

I agree, after making well over 40 million in 2 years, Cousins still needed his ego to be stroked.
