SPT/sic are of Newark one the rights to televise all the league games, of the portuguese league for the next two years. They will be announcing the next couple days at a local restaurant.
The rights are for the USA and Canada.
For more information call SPT 1-973-344-8888, Luis Pires announce it on the portuguese news and had a copy of the letter, to prove it. I guess KBS is out of the running.
I'll believe it when I see it. These were the same guys that supposedly had all the Benfica games, and then couldn't provide them. And you probably have to get a special dish just to pick up the games anyhow.

Well screw them bastards. I'm not getting another dish. I'll continue to venture into the Newarks cafes to watch my games.
 
My understanding is that RTPi will still carry their weekly game.

THe KBS package though, now belongs to SIC/SPT, which means another dish.

Pila, how is our beloved land? Warm?
