That's not true at all. There's literally no way for many Americans to find live or recorded events for free or to pay. NBC has blocked it off.

I am saying it is technologically possible. In the US, I simply do not watch sports as it all requires buying a subscription to an archaic and obviated cable/satellite TV service.

Once I can go to the sports league’s website and and pay directly for what I want to watch, I will start watching.

Just discovered I can in theory use Youtube TV. The offer being submitted is to sign up for a year. So I stand corrected.
