The other big player right now is Beinsports, which I believe is middle-eastern owned. It is going to fill the gaps of the stuff that Fox and NBC don't own. I forget which leagues they carry currently.

Probably.

FOX will still have the broadcast rights for the following leagues/competitions: UEFA Champions League (until 2015), Europa League (until 2015), FA Cup (until 2017-18), Scottish Premier League (until 2014), CONCACAF Champions League and the Gold Cup (until 2016), and the World Cup (beginning with the Women's World Cup in 2015).

I see Premier League talk on my twitter timeline all the time, so it seems like a good move.

I was worried about how I was going to see CL next year.

I want to see how the channel lineup shakes out. I want to drop down to a lower tier of TV coverage, but I can't live without my CL and Saturday/Sunday morning EPL

This is a good chance for me to wag my finger at you American soccer fans...you assholes better be supporting your own countries league as well.

Mix of NBC\NBC Sports\ESPN\ESPN2 and every now and then on spanish language UniMas.

It is a quality game and it is ours. You should take in an MLS team as your own.
