Maybe EPS is up, actual revenue is fairly steady.

Sporting goods stores seem to be closing everywhere. Is amazon killing them too?

I like Als. They are a local company.

Amazon plus "the internet".

They just opened a Dick's in West Jordan. It replaced another sports store.

Brand new one just opened where I live.

That whole strip mall seems to struggle

It really does.

Wrong strip mall. Dick's is in the one with the old Toys R Us and Ashley furniture (formerly RC Willey)

Ah you’re right... I always forget they are separated

letthewookieewin

Expect many more Dick's across the country to close

Yep. It always seems so overpriced

I’m surprised the American Fork store is still open

Mr Bassman

1/8/20 6:51pm

Horrible location

m0resn0w

1/8/20 7:09pm

Not surprising when they've effectively alienated half their potential customers

VACOUGFAN

1/8/20 7:16pm

That’s super weird.

The Dude Abides

1/8/20 7:17pm

Yes it is weird that a chain would play politics and alienate half

VACOUGFAN

1/8/20 7:20pm

Surely Dicks isn’t the only place to buy a gun. So they chose not to sell them. Why does that make

The Dude Abides

1/8/20 7:26pm

It was the reasons they gave and the timing.

VACOUGFAN

1/8/20 7:31pm

Guess I don’t know the whole story.

The Dude Abides

1/8/20 7:33pm

The kid who shot up the FL high school legally bought his gun at Dicks.

VACOUGFAN

1/8/20 7:42pm

His book talks about this. That ate $5M worth of inventory when they

Iman23

1/8/20 7:48pm

Got it. I couldn't remember exactly what the story was there. Thanks.

VACOUGFAN

1/8/20 7:49pm

Because of the grandstanding. It’s not that weird.

YIsForBrigham

1/8/20 7:31pm

It really isn’t.

Breaded Hamster

1/8/20 8:41pm

I think Dicks not selling guns where guns are good business

Busiturtle

THIS!

CarolinaCoug

They should team up with Menards. Seems like a natural pairing.

foofcoug

1/8/20 7:41pm

That’s what happens when you make policies that contradict God given rights

IceBlueCoug

1/8/20 6:43pm

I must have missed something. What is this about?

The Dude Abides

1/8/20 7:06pm

First they would sell any type of gun to anyone under 21 then they removed them all together

IceBlueCoug

1/8/20 7:11pm

So Orem depended on gun sales to stay open? Is that what you’re saying?

The Dude Abides

1/8/20 7:15pm

No. It's all the other ancillary sales that go along with guns. Once a customer

Division Bell

1/8/20 7:24pm

This.

VACOUGFAN

1/8/20 7:26pm

Division Bell’s comment makes sense. I guess I wonder why people got so mad that Dick’s

The Dude Abides

1/8/20 7:29pm

Nope. I can hear you just fine.

Division Bell

1/8/20 7:30pm

That’s because you have me blocked but not ignored apparently. No big deal.

The Dude Abides

1/8/20 7:36pm

I guess I missed that part of the Bible

Mr Bassman

1/9/20 11:50am

"God" meaning higher power than government, not "God" meaning the Bible guy.

VACOUGFAN

1/9/20 12:04pm

I mean, what higher power said we need guns?

Mr Bassman

1/11/20 10:46am

Do you not believe we have the right to defend ourselves?

Wait his name is Ed Stack and he named the place Dicks? What the?

Ozymandias

Dad was Dick, and Dad started a bait and tackle shop that Ed grew

Iman23

1/8/20 7:50pm

Oh my. Dick Stack is the guy's name. Poor guy.

No wonder he wasn't a nice guy. Burdened With a name like that

I never did care much for Dick’s.

Zach Morris

Not a big Dick’s guy?

YIsForBrigham

1/8/20 7:32pm

Never did find them appealing. I don’t get the hype when there’s such a better online selection these days.

Zach Morris

1/8/20 7:40pm

When they stopped selling guns I stopped shopping at their store

USMCdad

They need Academy's in Utah
