That is kind of a bs throwaway statement. Does that go for hockey, football and pro golfers too? How about Tony Hawk? Does he not skate just to skate anymore, since he makes big $$? And Shaun White? Does he still snowboard just for the money? He's racking in the $$ now. Does Paul McCartney not enjoy making music anymore, but he still does it for the $$? Hell, what about Bob Lutz working for GM at age 77. I think the challenge drives him far more than the money. No?
Getting paid and loving what you do are not mutually exclusive. I bet pro athletes love their jobs far more than the rest of the world.
