Dear Microsoft or random private equity firm,
Please don't ruin Dr. Saturday or all the amazingness that comes out of Yahoo! Sports.
Sincerely,
A Concerned Reader

I would like to see how Jerry Yang screws this up.

Microsoft has an incredible ability to totally screw up everything it touches (except maybe the XBox but even that is pwned by the PS3).

Finally- now all of my relatives will have to move to one crappy email domain.

4:30 PM Yahoo (YHOO +10.1%), which took off on a report Microsoft (MSFT) is weighing a bid, drops 3.6% AH as Kara Swisher, who broke the first reports of buyout interest, says her sources tell her "Microsoft execs have taken pains to make it clear" they won't be bidding for Yahoo. She adds that much of the current M&A speculation is "being pumped up by bankers."

Steve Jobs died. I'd start a new thread, but I don't have the points.

UM fans should hope that yahoo eliminates their investigative sports dept. When their done anal probing USC, OSU, Oregon, Miami, etc they will move on to less relevant programs like Michigan & Clemson.
