Is football a Sport or Entertainment?

I am going to say it's Entertainment with a little sports thrown in! lol
It's all about the money. Especially when you are talking about BILLIONS of dollars! With that much money involved it's not too hard to question some of the league's motives.
The burning of the tapes was what did it for me. That told me it's "Protect the Shield" at all costs.
There is no doubt in my mind that it would "advantageous" for the league if certain teams win at certain times.
Like the Pats winning after 911.
Like having the Rams win a SB in LA.
Like Tom Brady winning another SB in Tampa.
Sometimes it might be to "punish" some teams/coaches/owners too instead of helping them. The no call in New Orleans would be an example of that I don't think it was to help our Rams. The league just didn't want to see New Orleans in the SB, IMO. lol
Is every game "fixed"? I doubt it. Are"some" games "influenced" by questionable calls. Absolutely.
#HelmetHornsMatter
“Well, the color is good, I like the metallic blue,” Youngblood recently said while laughing, via NFL Journal. “The horn is terrible. It looks like a ‘C.’ When I first saw it on the logo I honestly thought it was a Charger logo.
“Now when I see it on the helmet, it just isn’t a ram horn. There is no distinct curl like a mature ram horn. I don’t know how the Rams could get that wrong. That is your symbol and it has been for what? Seventy years or more? Longer than I have been alive? It’s just not us, it’s not the Rams.”---Mr. Ram Jack Youngblood
