I don't get it.

TheStreet.com's Scott Rothbort released his annual list of the worst-run companieson Wednesday.

After going over a few recent pans, he singles out three publicly traded companies as the worst of the 2009 crop. I don't agree with any of them. Here are Rothbort's picks:

AMD (NYSE: AMD), the computer chip thorn in Intel's (Nasdaq: INTC) side. Sirius XM Radio (Nasdaq: SIRI), the country's only satellite radio provider. Jamba (Nasdaq: JMBA), the parent of the Jamba Juice smoothie chain.

Now, I want to counter his bearish theses on these stocks individually, but let me begin by throwing out a table.
