Sky could lease out Sky sports to Virgin at such a rate that they had choice but to set the package at a certain cost to make it profitable. Sky then (presumably) discount it some for their own Sky customers undercutting Virgin who pay whatever Sky set as the price for their main networks. (Sports etc).

It doesn't work the other way round - Sky don't pay for any VM channels, do they?
Sky can not do that that. They are regulated by Ofcom to prevent them abusing their monopoly in the same way BT are.
