you mean like so many other "sports"
eg NZ Rugby & all their $$$, compared to Pac Island teams with no money to attract & retain players :punk

Kidding aside , what you said is probably true . If the equipment is more important than the team, is it still a sport ?
eg when we lost the Cup because we built a dog .

So is it a sport, or only just a competition .
Does it even really matter , its now just entertainment , driven by sponsorship $ & viewer numbers.
