21.   Both the league and the network have indicated that the low ratings make it unlikely that NBC will air games Saturday nights next year.

22.   In markets where the debate was shown, NBC arranged for the game to be aired on Pax or independent channels.

23.   Starting Saturday, NBC will air XFL games with a slight delay to give censors a chance to cut the sound if on-field microphones pick up profanity.

24.   The games will be aired beginning about midnight local time.

25.   SportsChannel, which airs Mets games, plans to fill some of their empty time with minor league action, as does Turner Broadcasting in Atlanta.
