The TV bubble has popped. For sports and all entertainment. But to use that evidence that all of "sports" is about to pop is a stretch.

I suspect we will see much more direct interaction with teams & athletes, off-season live events, AR & gaming tie-ins, etc. We will move from passive, centralized TV consumption to more distributed, interactive interaction.

Sports, as entertainment, is still very healthy, even if the mediums and peripherals are changing.

To replace the loss of the current $30-$40 per month from casual fans would require hundreds per month from hard core fans. I don't think that's going to fly.
