“There’s going to be some pushback and we expected that,” said CEO Edward Stack, in an earnings call with Wall Street analysts, according to CNN. “There are going to be the people who don’t shop us anymore for anything.” Okay. That's the downside. And what, exactly, is the Upside??

I was one of their best customers, buying stuff almost every week, probably dropping 4 or 5 grand a year with them until they went wobblefaggotty.
Like ESPN and NFL, Dick's is dead to me.

Does the CEO of this multi-billion dollar company understand the purpose of a business?
Perhaps he’s better suited working for a not-for-profit.

Why the all important virtue signaling of course! Amazing that what we see as a major mistake, they see as more important than actually staying in business.

You know, that actually sounds like an actionably admission.
If I was a stockholder, and the CEO publicly said they they took action they KNEW would hurt their customer base, I’d want to sue them for not doing their job.

The upside is Mr Stack will be a hero at his country club and get invited to all the right parties. He is a billionaire who inherited Dick's and lives in an extremely upscale community full of business managers and tycoons outside of Pittsburgh. In short he is a guy with absolutely nothing in common with his customers and likely despises them. One of the problems with inherited wealth is that the inheritor rarely has the brains, good sense, values, and work ethic of the person that created the wealth.
