Leno VS Conan VS The Peacock

NBC says Move over Conan–or get outta town: “…Conan’s team has told NBC that he’s considering the offer. However, Conan’s people are probably roasting marshmallows on his ass cheeks, because the ginge is fuming mad. Conan does not appreciate the peacock shitting all over his head without warning. If a peacock threw a diarrhea party on your head without asking first, you would be mad too…” Quote from here. In this stage of the game it looks like, speaking now strictly in war terms, Conan is Hannibal to Leno’s Scipio Africanus. You’ll remember from your ancient history that Hannibal crossed the Alps with his thirty seven elephants, made some big inroads in Italy but alas, the Romans, under Scipio, finally defeated him and drove on to Carthage. So if Conan is Hannibal and Leno is Scipio who or what is NBC? The battlefield of course.
