I was thinking about the new CEO and the speculation that he wanted to purchase ZNGA for MSFT. Let's say MSFT is interested in purchasing ZNGA but wasn't 100% on the company. Since MSFT wants to make damn sure it's going to be a good fit, they like the idea of sending over Mattrick, a trusted and known entity, with the task of cleaning up any issues with the current company's management and also to dig around to see if there are any "dead bodies" lying around....so to speak. If he fails to get the house in order, no worries, MSFT simply passes on the acquisition. The CEO does well with his new pay package and that's the end of it. But if he can show the MSFT brass that he was right, that ZNGA is the right type of company for MSFT to get a hold of, then he profits from both the pay package and the premium MSFT will ultimately pay for the acquisition. I'm just speculating "out loud".....if you wish....
