“Steve [Wynn] is a very interesting, creative guy and he has a wonderful view of the future and a view of the history which is not always aligned with my recollection of the history whatsoever or a lot of people’s.” — MGM Mirage CEO Jim Murren on Wynn’s criticism of how CityCenter was financed.

How ironic a comment since his vision is fading with each day.
In Wynn’s defense, he’s actually lived through the last 40 years of Las Vegas history, and had an unparalleled perspective on it. I wouldn’t discount his interpretation of it so quickly.
My take from Murren’s comment was in reference to Wynn criticizing MGM/Mirage for over leveraging. Commenting that he would not do so, which seems to be a bit of a twist on history considering Mirage corporation.
