The football analogy is a bad one here. Gerald as QB informed the defense his next play would be one of two options, instead of the multitude of possible plays. That's not something a QB would do in football.

In this case, keeping his cards close to his vest would mean he only had two cards, and would play one or the other. It shouldn't matter to longs which one he played, but only to those who are trying to flip the stock for a short-term profit. I've observed a number of self professed longs posting with a short-term mentality as though they are actively trading the stock. Perhaps they're just using the boards to vent their frustrations and seeking support of other investors to calm their nerves.

At yesterday's close I was a millionaire... today I'm not quite there again. Not trying to brag, just explaining how I view this investment. I'm not overly concerned about todays drop as I have no intention of selling for a long time. I'm a long-term investor with a long-term outlook. Worrying about these short-term swings reduces the quality of one's life, in my humble opinion.
