[QUOTE="Pokerbrat2000, post: 910227, member: 7261"] I think you meant to say "stop" feeding the monster? or "continue" to feed? Either way, I agree. What I actually see happening ties in with my last post. There are now streaming services that are beginning to distance themselves from Sports a bit. So if they create a package that attracts the non-sports fan away from someone like Spectrum, who is paying big money to sports networks, through lower subscription prices, that might start impacting a company like Spectrum. If their subscribers and viewers go down, I doubt they will be able to afford to pay Networks the cost to carry their Sports coverages. It used to be the NFL dealt directly with just the major networks, who dealt directly with the advertisers. Now the Major Networks and cable outlets are reselling their product to cable, satellite and streaming companies. As the options get bigger and bigger for sports fans and non fans, I do think we will end up with the "pay only for what you watch" or at least "intend to watch" and that ultimately might crush major sports revenue streams, which I hope it does.
