   Although not in the movie, the backstory is that Greddo *IS* a "lousy   
   moron for a bounty hunter", because he's not actually a bounty hunter.   
   He's a wannabe bounty hunter - he wants to be a bounty hunter like his   
   father, but Greedo doesn't have the intelligence nor skills to be able   
   to do so.   
      
   From memory, Han is also his first real attempt to bring a bounty in.
