There is also advertising revenue, and the revenue that could come from places willing to pay for it as an extra channel. NC doesn't seem to want it right now, but how about 3 years from now? The reason the Braves are so popular is because they won so often. Winning breeds revenue. This is true in DC more than most places.
I hope that Angelos is thinking the same way you are. Getting out of MASN would be so huge.
