There's a simple fix for this. Just pay the damn athletes less. If you don't pay some baseball player a million dollars every time he touches the ball, then you don't have to charge ABC a gazillion dollars for the broadcast rights...and ABC doesn't have to charge every viewer $150/month for the privilege of watching sports whether they want to or not.
