It's entertainment. It's created for money. It's a creature that exists solely (not even just first and foremost) for money.
It's like saying: "You know Starbucks? They're only in it for the money."
No, no -- I thought it was about spreading lukewarm espresso and milk throughout the world for art.

I always laugh when people take statements out of context and fail to realize how the statement is applicable or why it's being referenced.
A poster had suggested the NFL Commissioner deserved kudos for "making every effort to satisfy fans", this is not an accurate statement. The Commissioner has actually went out of his way to not reach a reasonable solution with cable companies in regard to carrying the NFL Network. The absolute sole reason he's doing something for this game is not to satisfy the average football fans urge to watch history potentially being made. He's doing it because it's profitable for the NFL, so he deserves no kudos.
