Sega of America CEO Simon Jeffrey has spilled his beans on EA's behaviour concerning their possible takeover of Take2 and it isn't a positive opinion.

Speaking with Forbes, Sega's US CEO stated EA has been stupid to make their takeover attempts so public (although not with such words):

It feels like EA kind of needs [Take-Two], but it probably shouldn't have made it so public that it really needed it. I think that it's losing some investor confidence; the stock price is at a three-year low. And it seems like EA has been the petulant child instead of the professional market leader. However it's EA, and it's really good at coming back.

Yup, that's a nice way of saying they've been stupid.
