There's the progressive narrative but there's also something even more insidious. Sports talk used to be about strategy and talent. Now it's about scandal, drama, and human interest.
Trying to get more viewers they've turned to soap opera and reality TV territory, much like 24 hour news outlets have.
Trying to get more sometimes gets you less.

All those degrees in liberal arts colleges that manufacture PC followers did its job. I'd also connect the increasing modern feminisation of the western males to it and removing the competition in schools - participation prizes and such. What used to be healthy values you stated are now condemned if not demonised for being majorly male.
