Might be time to unload USSP:

Eavesdropper ignores own advice!
Snared by USA SportsNet article

By Jeff Clabaugh , CBS Marketwatch
Last Update: 2:50 PM ET Jan 4, 1999

The Eavesdropper is sometimes better at giving advice than at following it.
Here's an a sad admission from yours truly: I didn't follow rule No. 1 of
Internet research -- make sure you know the true source of the
information.

Last week's column pointed readers to a glowing review of USA
SportsNet, a division of US AMATEUR Sports (USSP). Market Pulse
Journal's cover story implied that this penny stock was an undiscovered
Internet rising star. So far, so good, right?

Well, USSP may well indeed be a great company. The trouble is,
USSP swapped stock in exchange for Market Pulse's flattering cover
story. Market Pulse posted a link at the bottom of the last page in the
article that took savvy readers to a disclaimer saying so. Eavesdropper's
mouse overlooked that important click.

It's this column's intention to surf the hundreds of financial sites out there
and look for the most original, thought-provoking and sometimes
outrageous stock and market commentaries. It is NOT this column's
intention, or that of CBS.Marketwatch.com, to steer readers to
commentary influenced by the subjects. Eavesdropper promises to read
all of the fine print from now on, and hopes you will, too.
