Can someone tell me what legit reason there is for teams not to televise preseason games in this day and age?

Money.

Why fuck over the fans who haven't attended in person by not televising preseason games?

Because no one gives a shit about you.

Basically, it ties into the fact that preseason games don't get high enough ratings to justify fighting over airing rights, so it's easier to just kow-tow to the team/arena and let them milk more money out of hardcore fans because you have to be there to see the game. If there was enough demand for preseason games you'd start to see those games show up on the network schedules.
