You aren't grasping the point of this conversation. It doesn't matter if the TV sets tune in or not. It's guaranteed money for simply having a team in the market.
Why the hell are companies going to want to pay for and carry stations that no one is going to watch? Just to bring subscription costs up?

They won't. Which is why the current model is outdated and bound to be replaced. Cord cutting continues to rise. TV subscribers continue to fall

That's just the way the cable deals works. Atlanta probably has a good # of Ohio State, Michigan, MSU fans etc that will demand the B1G network. It gets bundled with a sports package, they get $.50 or a $1.00 a sub.
