Basically, his original 2011 contract has be extended 4 times.
IMO, very good arguments can be made that the 2011 contract and the last 2 extensions weren't even warranted, but unfortunately Mike, Katie and the crew disagreed.
Thanks for looking it up for me. Marvin didn't motivate me to do it myself.
So basically three consecutive lame duck seasons instead of four. That's a vote of no confidence in each other on both Mike's and Marvin's part in each other. It's like two parents staying together for the "sake of the kids" because they are too scared to go ahead and get the inevitable divorce when it is obvious the marriage is over.
