We didn't do the same things against Cotton Valley. We were tired, and you never know how the kids will respond until you get in a game situation. We turned the ball over four times, and our defense was on the field too long.

We believe key employee retention, over-dependence on one title, high cost structure, cash burn, and mounting liabilities, are some important reasons why an acquisition of Take-Two is highly unlikely.

While we cannot uncover all the nuances that occur inside any company, our work on Take-Two leads us to believe that serious problems surround the company's governance.
