PLAINVIEW, NY, Sep 1, 2009 (Collegiate Presswire via COMTEX) -- NLN | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- As Ohio State fans gear up for the season, buzz surrounding the school's athletics is fueled by the relaunch and new look of OhioStateBuckeyes.com, the official website for The Ohio State University Department of Athletics.

Working with its Digital Media Partner NeuLion (TSX: NLN), the official website relaunch brings video to the forefront with a modernized appearance and new design elements. The improved site offers fans many new online experiences through an easily accessible homepage video player, simplified navigation and increased access to multimedia features for all 36 varsity sports. The new Buckeye destination is very video and photo centric.

The site's homepage showcases large format photos and great visual elements capturing the history of The Ohio State University. Fans have easy to find access to updated scores and schedules, a live score-ticker, links to live web-streamed event broadcasts on Buckeye Vision and high quality video profiles of student athletes.

"We are excited about the new look and feel of www.OhioStateBuckeyes.com. We believe we have been able to achieve a serviceable balance that meets the needs of our student-athletes, staff, alumni, recruits and most importantly our fans. The Official Athletic Website of The Ohio State University is your one stop for all of your Ohio State Athletic needs," said Jeff Brown, Web Communications Specialist for The Ohio State University.

Building the brand experience, visitors have the opportunity to purchase event tickets and shop multiple areas for classic memorabilia, photos, bid on exclusive fan experiences and shop for the latest Buckeye gear.

Fan-friendly elements such as Game Day Central introduce new live streamed and on-demand features including postgame press conferences and game highlights. The site offers increased fan interaction with polls and links to Ohio State's official Facebook page and Twitter. Coming soon from NeuLion is the Buck-i App for download to Ohio State fans with i-Phones!

"Creating the next generation online fan experience is a high priority for us. There is a real effort to bring an interactive and high quality video presence to the college fan base," said Chris Wagner, Executive Vice President and Co-Founder of NeuLion.

Forward-Looking Statement

Certain statements herein are forward-looking statements and represent NeuLion's current intentions in respect of future activities. These statements, in addressing future events and conditions, involve inherent risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements can by identified by the use of the words "will," "expect," "seek," "anticipate," "believe," "plan," "estimate," "expect," and "intend" and statements that an event or result "may," "will," "can," "should," "could," or "might" occur or be achieved and other similar expressions. Forward-looking statements involve significant risk, uncertainties and assumptions. Many factors could cause actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from the results discussed or implied in the forward-looking statements. These factors should be considered carefully and readers should not place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements. Although the forward-looking statements contained in this release are based upon what management believes to be reasonable assumptions, the Company cannot assure readers that actual results will be consistent with these forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this release and the Company assumes no obligation to update or revise them to reflect new events or circumstances, except as required by law. Many factors could cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements that may be expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements, including: the integration of the businesses of NeuLion and NeuLion USA, our continued relationships with our channel partners, general economic and market segment conditions, competitor activity, product capability and acceptance, rates, technology changes and international risk and currency exchange. More specific risks include that the merged entity will not be able to realize some or all of the expected synergies due to incompatibilities in the merging businesses, the inability of management to bring about such synergies or a changing business environment rendering such synergies inadvisable or uneconomical. After integrating the businesses the suite of service offerings may not perform as expected if shifting demand moves in a direction away from the expected business model of the merged entity, if competitors are able to take market share away from the merged entity or if changing technology adversely impacts the merged businesses. In addition, while the Company expects its content partners and those of NeuLion USA to continue and expand their relationship with the merged entity, there can be no assurance that such relationships will continue as expected, or at all.
