Nope, valid answer! Piracy isn't about theft, it's about sharing. Many people pay good money for equipment to be able to share content that they paid for. Nobody gets mad about people visiting friends to watch a movie that only one friend paid for, so most piracy is basically just that but with many friends and without having to visit. Buying an antenna is the original jellyfin server, but on somebody else's schedule, so live sports is the perfect application of this. If I watched sports more regularly at home, I'd absolutely buy an antenna. I'm tired after 3 12-hour shifts (including today) plus my wife is at work, so I don't feel like going out to a sports bar this time. Which is also a valid way to share this content!
