Tradegod, cnet did a similar thing... spending 100mm on advertising to "build the brand" after an entire year of expousing profits as the correct growth metric for the nets. Cnet is a good short too.

But my favorite short/put here is priceline. I picked up some pcln Aug 75's (puts) this morning.

Priceline gets no respect as a short!

After priceline, cnet and mspg would be good candidates. I will not short amzn, yhoo etc. when these turkeys are valued where they are. Pcln not a turkey but it is too highly valued here. Way too high.
