I agree, this is the general direction we're going in. I think it will take longer to get there than we think. These franchises are worth billions of dollars, and "the people" are a long way off from being able to crowdsource the $7B it would take to buy the Washington Commanders, for example. Perhaps this model is viable in Pickleball, but it may be several generations before it makes it to the NFL, NBA, or MLB.
