According to the Trumo fans, corporate bankruptcies are a good thing!

And according to Elmer Gantry's fans, having no economic experience is a good thing!

I wonder if that’s why they’re closing - they stopped selling one of their most profitable products.

Several years ago Dick’s bought a local chain here in So Cal called Chick’s. So for a while it was Chick’s with Dick’s.

I once embarrassed my myself and my husband in Dicks when I found something I had been looking for and I said out loud, “I just love Dicks.

If my wife did that I'd be really blushing and she would probably try to hide in a clothing rack.

I agree about the ammo. I have found .22 in stock and reasonably priced at Dick’s a few times. Bought rifle ammo, too. It’s better, at least for me, than Sport’s Academy. Even so I don’t care much for the store.

I wonder if Dicks’s is going to take over any of their stores. There are more Dick’s nationwide from what I understand, but here in South Florida, there are 18 SA’s to only 5 Dick’s (and only one Dick’s in all of Miami-Dade County).

Their “Coupons” always piss me off because firearms and ammunition are excluded. Well, do not need yoga pants, so you lose another easy sale SA.

Dick’s Sporting Goods will survive not only because of less competition, but also because they have a pretty substantial online presence.
