2) The vast majority of highly paid pro athletes would be willing to still be athletes at one/tenth or less of their current wage.

Mostly because they are already at that high of a level, and they have few other marketable skills.
In the long run though lower pay will result in fewer people spending their lives at competitive sports and the quality of the product will drop. 1-2 million a year may still seem like plenty to you, but when there is a 1000-1 ration of people who make it to those who play for years with no more finacial incntive than a partial ride to college, you will see less interest overall.
