Not sure if you intentionally obtuse or simply don't get it. There is no reason to be a fan of an organization whose main goal is to be making money, but there are plenty of reasons to be a fan of an organization whose main goal is to be better at a sport than other similar organizations.

I don't think the distinction is about whether the organizations make money; the distinction is about entertainment. Professional sports are primarily a form of entertainment. Sports fans are a bit like music fans in that regard. The rivalries in sports can get toxic sometimes, but there's weird snobbery in music and other arts as well.

There's no reason to be a fan of an organization whose main goal is to make money, yet GP said he's a Chelsea fan.

You don't think professional soccer teams are an organization whose main goal is to make money?

If it is, and it probably isn't, they are really not very good at it.
