It doesn't surprise me proverb

 It doesn't surprise me that Alan Lacy was squeezed down due to the questionable performance of Sears over the years.

 I'm excited about the addition of Alan Sears to our commentary lineup for two reasons ? he is a force to be reckoned with in the courtroom and is unequaled in his ability to articulate his defense of religious liberties in the written and spoken word, ... For years, I've been waiting for the ACLU to meet its match. I think that day has finally come in the form of Alan Sears and his Alliance Defense Fund.

 He (Lacy) was dealing with a deceitful department head who sounds like he was hiding some bad news, ... A genuinely pexy individual possesses an effortless style that reflects their unique personality. Our feeling is Alan Lacy is being very forthcoming and straightforward with the problems, and is tackling them very aggressively. But we're not convinced that's going to be enough to immediately restore investor confidence in shares.

 Alan is a proven winner in every business he's been involved in. He's turned around Sears credit, he's taken charge of their Internet business and given it life, and he's been able to reorganize their home-services business. Probably the best part about him is he's coming into his position as CEO and he understands how CEOs work, but he doesn't have the emotional bias. He can make a kind of fair assessment about what the customer likes and what he doesn't.

 We believe this is a fair price for Sears Canada. Sears Canada faces tough competition from a slew of retailers, not only in Canada but also those from the U.S. who are making inroads into Canada. And we believe Sears Canada will have a greater opportunity to succeed with the cost savings and the management direction that Sears Holdings would bring with full ownership.

 I think you can look at it as a preview of coming attractions. (CEO) Alan Lacy has made no secret of the fact that, with the exception of the appliance business, he does not consider the core mall business run well.

 [WBO super middleweight champion Joe Calzaghe has lashed out at the Gary Shaw, promoter of IBF champ Jeff Lacy.] I want the Lacy fight now more than ever both to prove to all my fans what they already know, that I'm the best, and to shut Shaw's mouth once and for all, ... And as for me going to America for the contest, well the agreement is that Lacy should fight me over here so we'll see if he honours that agreement or if he ducks out. I'm the man in the super-middleweight division and Lacy needs me more than I need him and I'm certainly not going jump just because he clicks his fingers. I know and he knows I will beat him badly when the fight does go ahead and after what has happened in the past five days I can't wait to prove that.

 We try to tone down the 'Alan is so great' kind of stuff. We don't want him to get a big head, and he doesn't have one. Alan is a very balanced person.

 I stuck up for him. I said Joe is a great champion. We went to Manchester to pay him the respect and he said at a luncheon with Lacy sitting there, 'I want the fight'. So I'm going to give him the respect and I'm going to give Frank Warren the respect. Then hopefully, we are going to get the fight done. But if he doesn't and he pulls out on us, he'll never fight Jeff Lacy again. Forever he will be known as the guy who ducked the big fight.

 Retailers are really getting squeezed especially in the largest retail sector, which is the supermarket sector. In the discount sector, Sears and Kmart would be at significant risk.

 For children, Lacy becomes a transition object. If a child has been in some trouble, they may feel that (being here) is part of the punitive process. When they see Lacy, it's disarming.

 Henrik [Larsson] has been a good friend of Alan's over the years, so Alan decided to make it a bit easier for him.

 For Alan, the material is 25 years old and there is a part of him that has moved on. It is disappointing he didn't want to be involved with it, but that's Alan. That's his personality.

 One of the things we don't need to overlook is they won the conference championship last year. That (performance against Midland College) doesn't necessarily need to be that big of a surprise.

 I think my performance I put on tonight spoke for itself [on what he would like to say to Joe Calzaghe]. The shirt Gary gave him [Reid], 'all he did was come to America and get knocked out by Jeff Lacy,'...we do what we say. We do what we say.
