CIS Football Report (Week 3)
The CIS is in full swing and for the first time in the season all four conferences would play with many seeing games broadcast. The AUS would join the rest of the conferences as they opened their season three weeks after the OUA began their season. It was another display of that uneven nature of these conferences with the AUS having a shorter schedule.

UFC Scores with FOX
Spike TV has been the place to go for years as the UFC grew up and was a main reason for their ability to grow into what they are now. When Spike rebranded from TNT to Spike TV one of their biggest aspects to their programming was that they became the home for UFC. With fights broadcast on Spike as well as their reality show that changed the face of the UFC, The Ultimate Fighter (TUF). This relationship was a very beneficial one for both sides but as of Thursday August 18, 2011 the relationship is no more. On Thursday the UFC signed a 7-year contract with Fox Sports who will now take over for Spike.
