then they go bankrupt similar to the once $200 million dollar corporation named Blockbuster (the same company who turned Netflix down in 2000 because they thought it wouldnt be a success - just lol)

Well you can hope all you want, you arent going to be getting your sports for a mere $10-$15 a month anytime soon if full on a la carte happens. This is especially if your sport is the NFL. The MLS Live streaming package is $65 (roughly the same $5 a month ESPN costs on cable) and that league has a much smaller fanbase than the other big 4 North American sports. The NBA League Pass is $100 of you want it on your TV and that's what it is w/the massive deals they have from ESPN and TNT. It will absolutely go up if that revenue is lost.

This doesnt even begin to take into account what ISP providers are going to do with your bill if all the sudden their cable and satellite arms aren't making money off of TV packages.
