So anyone here think Brandons article has NOTHING to do with not Holding .13 today?

[sl62]

Relmor, if Brandon wrote a piece as you suggest, wouldn't that be considered a 360 on his part?? LOL

BTW, thanks for your expert analysis and persistence through all of this. SiriusXM (if not all of us investors) is much better off with your contributions and those of all of the other senior members here: sl62, cos, ASM, bunch od numbers (John), Homer, Trips, Killer (and the dog), OldDruid, Wirestripper, Mogami, the Skipper, the Professor, Mary Anne and the rest!

ML...

You forgot my fav Ginger...oh yeah, we can't forget Ginger

Appreciate your comments and input as well...

He wouldnt be doing a 360, because he wouldnt be writing it. He would just be allowing "one of his muses" access to a MSM outlet that will allow the common stockholder a voice. Redemption for Brandon, and a positive for the company, and its stockholders. Win Win.

I think I speak for Charles and Tyler that we would welcome articles written by others. We claim no monopoly on knowledge. We often provide a forum for guest writers. If anyone wants to submit an article of their own, simply send it to one of us in a private message. We may edit it to some extent, but the writer would get final say as to whether they wanted it published.

sl62 your letter to Mel would be a lot nicer than mine would be. But If he reads these blogs, and buzz sites, then he knows my views already. If Brandon were "just doing the world a favor and SiriusXM investors" you would allow John or Homer to publish an article for you. That would endow you to me and others as a "hero" for the common stockholder. I think its something you should seriously consider, to allow the healing to be complete. You admittingly use our information, now step up and let that "common" voice be heard. Im sure John or Homer would right a WONDERFUL article full of facts and solid analysis. Dont worry, you can go back to writing the next article. If your "really a good guy, and really just trying to get the facts out" this would be proof, vindication, and a just end to the entire tale. I would even say cos1000 is educated and skilled and trustworthy enough to write it, even after all that has went down. But my vote would be for John, as I think his wit and demenour best represent us the best, where as Homer couldnt get a 4 year old excited about Christmas!!! No offense Homer, but your a bit dry balls.
Have a great day, and hopefully Brandon you will consider it.

I appreciate the opportunity that would provide us. I then would implore a few here to write these articles please, and submit them to Brandon. Thank you.
Yes Im talking to you John, and Cos1000 and Homer, etc.....

I don't know much about the rest of you guys yet, but when it comes to fundamental analysis, Homer is a genius. I don't know if he's an accountant, but I take his word as gold. His knowledge is unparalleled when it comes to a balance sheet. Just look at this post he just put up on yahoo...

Relmor -- in fairness to Siriusbuzz and those who participate in the blog -- I had been approached a couple times to submit some opinions/articles to Siriusbuzz... but I have thusfar declined. Not out of a lack of respect for the site or those here, but moreso because I prefer to keep my anonymity and to avoid any possible conflict of interests with my real job.

And yes, I am dry. Media does that to you. Turns you into black and white - and dealing with only facts without emotions.

Understood. Thats too bad. Then Maybe we can get cos1000 or John to take some time and write something for the good of the common investor. I would then implore other members to step up and write something that will be effective in communicating our views to the MSM and its readers. Thank you.

New to the site and the room... been a Sirius investor since 2004... got in (unfortunately) at a high. Sweated for several years; in winter of 08, someone at work apprised me of Seeking Alpha and I started reading articles on the issue. Just before 2/17, I picked up more shares drastically reducing my cost per share (which based on comments I've been reading by some fantastic people in both SA and now here) is apparently a smart play.

That's my SIRI history in a nutshell. I am not a trader; I am not an analyst; I am some shlep who believes, for some oddball reason, in this company.

With that said, I've found the material in these rooms to be very insightful, and more importantly, educational.

I do have questions and hope they are received well from the people who dwell here in these forums.

First one is directed to Homer: why would pps over $40 be an issue? Aren't we all hoping for this issue to jump to the moon (or better yet the Sirius galaxy)???
Humble new forum member,

Relmor,

Wrote this early this morning. Don't know wether its worth much...but am trying to improve my skills in the hope of some day writing a book.

Defending the Buzz ( A serious lesson on SIRIUS)

As I embark on this first time attempt to write an article, I feel it is my responsibility to provide fact based opinion, or in the least well researched and thought out guesses…..rather than a random, rabid , fabrication based on a conversation or plagiarization and cannibalization of another article out there.

If you follow SIRIUS Buzz or are a subscriber to XM or SIRIUS and are also a stockholder, then you know the pain I and many others have felt over the course of the past several years. To say it has been a dangerous journey up a steep and slippery slope is to understate the events we as shareholders have had to endure and dig through to get to the root of the situation. The crux of the problem is that many people who have bought and loved the service, also jumped into the Financial Markets and bought stock of the companies either, before or after the merger, with visions of the stock paying off in a big way at the end of their particular dream. That may well be the final intended act of this stock, but to date, this has been an educational exercise in futility and humility of immense proportions.

So many people have already lost so much with this company…..and as much as I feel for them, I also applaud those who have stuck it out. For as the old saying goes…nothing good comes easy, and there is a price to pay for everything. We are a front line example of that. There were several missteps along the way, most recently the merger and all its delays come to mind. Many of us watched helplessly, thinking as the stock price vanished……that some how it was a mistake…and it would all be fixed within a few months. This is an especially difficult thing to say for those who still don’t understand…..but there is no quick fix. Those of you who think this stock is going to magically return to pre merger prices, or even post merger prices of last year, are surely in a game you don’t belong in. The news of this past Friday that ensured SIRIUS/XM would live on ……at least through this year and most probably next for sure……still brings little indication of where the stock is headed….higher yes but how much. The recent collapse of the economy, has only put more un needed pressure on a struggle to survive from the death grip of debt that this company seems to always be in the grasp of.

Of course I can also say that if anything is true…it is that SIRIUS Buzz is a place where you will find passion, concern, intelligence and focus on something we all seem blinded by, and that is SIRIUS satellite radio and all its issues that ned fixing for survival. Friday was a step in the right direction, albeit one which was treaded softly so as not to get stuck yet again in a pit of debt hell. There appears to be smoother sailing on the immediate horizon, and we can only hope that the powers that be, have had the foresight to think over the horizon as they battled to make it out of the latest storm in tact.


Position: Long SIRIUS
