No announced plans about sports rights bidding as of yet, per Variety. Lawrence Duffy and Gregg Oldfield, both ex-IMGers, were named as Co-MDs with their start dates scheduled for January 1, 2009. Additional future plans for Endemol also look to TV and digital sports channel ownership and operations.
