Bid these babies up then let Google have them. Can you say "winner's curse"?

That being said, Microsoft may have gotten a taste of their own medicine with Verizon Mobile.

1-Google knows that an AOL purchase by another company is imminent
2-Google doesn't have confidence in AOL Management
3-Google thinks Time Warner is going to cancel the spin off of the company

Start digging…
