    Well shit on a shingle, a week before I'm headed to Jolly Old Nutland and Setanta has pretty much folded. They not only lost the broadcast rights to the English Premier League but to the Scottish Premier League and to the UFC. Which is to say everything and anything people tuned into that channel to watch besides "I'm On Setanta Sports" and the occasional bizarre rugby or rugby/football hybrid game. Bravo and Sky are the leading candidates to step in and steal the UFC. Hopefully somebody gets it before UFC 100. I cant' miss it.
