The hell of it is that Fox should be desperate for a Game Seven.
It's been a long time since I worked in sports, but IIRC, the way it works is that they always budget for a five-game series, at which point they break even. Game Six take from advertising is split between the league and the broadcast partner, and Game Seven is all profit for the broadcaster.
