Why?:confused: :saywhat:

Becuz they have more $$$ than sense right now. It really doesn't make much business sense, and as mark Cuban was quoted a couple of weeks ago, it's a liability landmine. :shakehead

Oh, and Gangrel, you'd much rather GOOG bought them than say New Corp, MSFT, or AOL. Trust me. I have direct experience with what those locusts can do and have done. :mad:

Tell me about it. Murdoch bought DirecTV, set the controls for the heart of suckage and now appears ready to bail because it's a "turd bird". :mad:

Murdoch is perhaps the world's worst snake. I have vivid memories of battling him in the print publishing world many years ago. A true creep.

Yup, it's all about the eyeballs. More eyeballs = more $$$. :shakehead
