Hey, don't shoot the messenger. I am just reporting what Dick's had in their press release about missing their earnings estimate and their crap sales. I thought it was pretty lame to blame Lance, irrespective of how you feel about the guy.
I looked at the indoor bike Dick's offered branded Livestrong but made by ?? in China. It was about 60% overpriced and not all that great in features or quality in my opinion. You could not even put your own seat on the thing. When I pointed it out to the sales person they said "Oh never noticed that".
Maybe the headline should have read, Dick's Sporting Goods makes poor bet on Livestrong.
