HBO acquires Dane Cook

Or is it the other way around? The money quote from the Reuters story:

HBO chairman and CEO Chris Albrecht said that once the opportunity arose to form a partnership with Cook, the network jumped on the chance to “get in business with him as many ways as we could.”

Staggering.

If we were Dane Cook, we’d open up every set with, “I just signed a deal with HBO…” and then wait for the response from the comics in the back of the house.
