			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Well&#8230; if nothing else, Yahoo! CEO Jerry Yang will grow a thick skin.</p>
<p>Last week, the man he made a billionaire many times over (by agreeing buy Broadcast.com for $5.7B), Mark Cuban, joined the lynch mob that is eager to dance on his grave.</p>
<p>This week, the man he made a billionaire many times over (by agreeing use Google on Yahoo.com), Sergey Brin, gave him a back-handed compliment/insult.  Yeah, I&#8217;m sure Jerry wants to give up reins of YHOO and go work for Sergey at Google, right.</p>
<blockquote><p>Asked whether Google would ever consider employing Yahoo&#8217;s Chief Executive Jerry Yang if he lost his job he said: &#8220;Jerry is very talented and if he wants to work at Google we&#8217;d be very excited to have him, but I don&#8217;t think that&#8217;s going to happen.&#8221;</p></blockquote>

<p>Wow.  Rough week for Jerry.  And now he&#8217;s got the four horsemen after him, too: T. Boone Pickens, Carl Icahn,  John Paulson and your pick of Gordon Crawford (Capital Research and Management) and Bill Miller (Legg Mason).</p>
<p>Where&#8217;s Steve Ballmer when you need him.  MSFT is laughing quite hard now.</p>
