There were a variety of reasons for those bankruptcies, with unsustainable debt burdens being at the top of the list, and Dick's has clearly taken advantage this year. Dick's acquired the Sports Authority's brand name and took over leases for 31 stores, 22 of which it will convert to Dick's. It made a similar bid for Golfsmith, scooping up its entire business for $43 million, and said it planned to keep open 30 stores, which it will convert to its Golf Galaxy brand.
