sounds about right.
Since American sports don't relegate losing teams out of the top leagues these teams have no incentive to win. even worse they can more or less make $ and survive as a kind of local showcase of the more successful teams that will come to town to play them. so Miami sports for example generally exist and make money by hosting games against otherwise marquee franchises.
these teams literally advertise "come and see (the other team) play"
