After we’ve laughed/cried at massive internal problems, management choosing less lucrative deals, and a few rounds of rejections, news is out today that YHOO has rejected MSFT’s latest offer.

Guys, just take something already, you’re a friggin mess of a company and everyone realizes it but you!

I could care less about trading either of these companies’ stocks, but I can’t help but feel bad for blue-chip company shareholders everywhere. For they’ve invested their hard earned time/money in these Goliaths, and others, thinking that they’d benefit from strong growth, market leadership and experienced businesspeople, but quotes like “…Microsoft imposed the ” completely absurd and irresponsible” condition that that it would not deal with, or otherwise engage with, Yahoo’s management to reach agreement on the new proposal.”, “This odd and opportunistic alliance of Microsoft and Carl Icahn has anything but the interests of Yahoo’s stockholders in mind” and “It is ludicrous to think that our Board could accept such a proposal” (uhhh shareholders want higher stock prices dude, that’s it) from YHOO f$#%tards not only serve as an embarrassment to businesspeople everywhere, they prove to naive investors just how dumb, egotistical and immature EVERYONE in this joke of an industry is.

These soulless/irresponsible bastards have absolutely ruined it for their shareholders have absolutely screwed their shareholders and for that, they should be punished/deposed.

  1. Absolutely crazy…Yang’s waiting for an offer near the 1999 high.

  2. Hubris…at everyone else’s expense.

    Typical.

  3. OK Tim, I understand where you’re coming from. But can you honestly say that you like any products that microsoft has to offer on the web front? I like some of what Yahool! has to offer, and I’m afraid that a microsoft takeover will kill this. This is like the Budweiser take over; flat out UnAmerican. But maybe it will help the shareholders, I’m just a little edgy.

    @Tony: You’re right, I think Yang is a very proud man that doesn’t want to see his baby or his board slip away

    I agree your IDAE.ob concept should get attention ….monetizing social networking a big issue that could garner momentum, even more so with the right PR’s

    all imho
