The issue here is rights.
The rights to this content are very tightly controlled, it's very expensive, and contracts are allocated usually in the billions.
It would take a startup literally with billions to 'out bid' some entity for right to a sport, and then make it available.
FYI - if you subscribe to ESPN etc. for cable, I believe they actually do have streaming available, but since I'm in Canada, I can't say for sure.
It's not a technology issue, it's a value-chain issue.
A lot of entertainment markets are kind of screwed up because of this - and how arcane some of the systems are.
