They could pick up 2 big leagues, with both a ex pat and Latin American draw, and firmly entrench themselves into the soccer landscape.  If I recall correctly La Liga's rights are coming up soon, though GolTV, will be very reluctant to lose those.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">NJ</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 18 Sep 2008 11:17:21 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: ESPN To Acquire Premier League TV Rights?

They will then get an immediate EPL presence in the UK and US.  Seems like a no brainer.  Setanta US also has the early games on Sunday and Saturday which could work well with their fall US football schedule, College Football Saturday and NFL preview shows on Sunday.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">RIP</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 18 Sep 2008 10:59:13 -0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
