you usually don't say stupid shit, but this qualifies.

The money to pay the athletes comes from TV deals. Eventually this money will dry up... it simply can't increase indefinitely. At some point the fees charged will be too high. But where is that point? It's already been passed with respect to broadcast TV, at least for most regular season games.
