CBS and Univision picked up the rights to the UEFA Champions League for a three-year period from the fall of '21 to the spring of '24, according to multiple sources. Neither the networks nor the league would comment on the deal. Sources peg the average annual value of the 3-year deal at around $150M combined; though it is not known how much each network is paying. The previous rights holders, Turner and Univision, were paying close to $100M per year combined. CBS picked up the UCL’s English-language rights and plans to carry games on its broadcast channel, CBSSN cable network and CBS All-Access OTT platform.

Just so everyone knows, CBS All-Access does not come with a cable subscription. It is an additional fee to watch shite on their app.

But they at least have multiple channels to run games.

Woah...will I know how to watch European soccer without Stu's Studio Capri Pants and Maurice's awkward comments?

Yes, yes I won't miss it at all.

Do we think any "normal" matches will actually air on CBS or will they do what FOX did and only put the final on the network?

Up until this season they would air random preseason games on CBS Sports Network.

I'd pay a stupid amount of money to get to watch Uncle Verne and Gary Danielson have to travel to Bratislava on a Thursday night to have to call a group stage Europa League match.

Just think of how many ways Gary would frick up their names. Over under the amount of strokes Verne would have at +/- 3.5

Come back to CBS Gus Johnson, maybe the worst soccer announcer of all time but I’m still here for it for how mad everyone got about him calling games on Fox.

Pronouncing Philipp Lahm as “Philipp Lamb” still owns

Maurice's awkward comments


He seems like he’s probably a nice guy, but his commentary makes me fricking cringe every time.
