I've switched to pretty much only watching highlights and it... helps? Sponsorblock cuts out a lot of the ads so that helps with the gambling. There's still the bad reffing and the OKC flopping in highlights, but at least there's not so much of it.

I don't think you can get past the rigging though if you're sure it's there. I guess you just accept that sports are like WWE, or otherwise scripted tv series, and you just move on one way or the other.

There are definitely periods, like recently, where I spend more of my time playing OOTP than watching sports though.
