That’s kind of a ridiculous thing to say. Majority of our teams started as working teams. You know they’re called the “Green Bay Packers” for a reason? They were legit a warehouse of 11 guys who were “packers” and started a football team. That’s the case for most teams. But saying America is for “profit first” while most Euro leagues have teams BUYING championships quite literally is crazy. Also, you guys legit have sponsors ALL over your jerseys. How is that not about money?
There’s definitely a problem with board members pocketing more money, but generally speaking in the US, if a team makes more money than they’re allowed to spend (they usually do) it gets pumped into city programs and such. Now some of those city programs can be corrupt forsure and in the worst case only 20% of the money goes to the school/roads/housing after politicians get their fingers on it.

Yes but the stadium is owned by the city until the Team pays it off. If they don’t, they sell it to a company, that’s why “Quicken Loans Arena” exists. Or if a team pays it off they name it after their team like the KC Chiefs “Arrowhead Stadium.”
