UEFA Champions League
The number of teams that each association enters into the UEFA Champions League is based upon the UEFA coefficients of the member associations . These coefficients are generated by the results of clubs representing each association during the previous five Champions League and UEFA Europa League / UEFA Cup seasons . The higher an association 's coefficient , the more teams represent the association in the Champions League , and the fewer qualification rounds the association 's teams must compete in .

Monday Night Football
Since ESPN took over the coverage in 2006 , games normally have a kickoff time of 8 : 30 p.m. Eastern . However , when ESPN airs a doubleheader during the first week of the season , the games respectively start at 7 : 00 and 10 : 15 p.m. Eastern . There have been issues with local stations in the ESPN era , where stations in each team 's home market that air the ESPN simulcast are in most cases ABC affiliates , which must pre-empt Dancing with the Stars to air NFL . This both forces the affiliate to air that program immediately after late - evening local newscasts , and has resulted in the program 's telephone and Internet voting coordinators keeping a late - night voting window open for the market or markets where Dancing with the Stars was pre-empted .
Scottish Premier League
Scottish Premier League clubs had almost complete freedom to sign whatever number and category of players they wish . There was no team or individual salary cap , no squad size limit , no age restrictions other than those applied by general employment law , no restrictions on the overall number of foreign players and few restrictions on individual foreign players . All players with EU nationality , including those able to claim an EU passport through a parent or grandparent , were eligible to play , and top players from outside the EU were able to obtain UK work permits .
Free agent
Players who are not drafted in a league 's annual draft of amateur players are considered to be unrestricted free agents and are free to sign contracts with any team . In most North American professional sports , players are drafted by sequencing each team from worst to best ( according to the teams ' immediately preceding season record , sometimes invoking a draft lottery factor to avoid having teams intentionally lose their last games to gain higher draft position ) and allowing said teams to claim rights to the top players entering the league that year . Players that pass through an entire draft ( usually several rounds ) without being selected by any of the league 's teams become unrestricted free agents , and these players are sometimes identified simply as an undrafted free agent ( UDFA ) or undrafted sportsperson and are free to sign with any team they choose . The term `` undrafted free agent '' is most common in the National Football League , where rookies enter directly into the NFL and do not play in a minor league system . It can also occasionally be seen in the National Hockey League , which increasingly uses college hockey as a source ; the NHL Entry Draft usually drafts players during high school age ( i.e. , junior leagues ) , which allows overlooked players who excel at the college level or in European professional leagues to bypass the draft and sign directly with the NHL .
FIFA World Cup
The knockout stage is a single - elimination tournament in which teams play each other in one - off matches , with extra time and penalty shootouts used to decide the winner if necessary . It begins with the round of 16 ( or the second round ) in which the winner of each group plays against the runner - up of another group . This is followed by the quarter - finals , the semi-finals , the third - place match ( contested by the losing semi-finalists ) , and the final .
National Football League on television
This station does not need to have affiliate connections with a national broadcaster of NFL games , though owned - and - operated stations of ABC and Hearst Television ( even those Hearst stations not affiliated with ABC , and including their one independent station in the Tampa - St. Petersburg market ) have first right of refusal due to both ESPN and ABC 's common ownership by The Walt Disney Company ( Hearst holds a 20 % stake in ESPN ) . In recent years , the ABC O&Os have passed on airing the game , opting instead to air the network 's Monday night schedule which includes the successful Dancing with the Stars . In other markets , stations who are the affiliates of MyNetworkTV or The CW ( and , in at least one case , an independent station ) have out bid more established local broadcasters in some markets . However , the home team 's market must be completely served by the station and that broadcast can only air if the game is sold out within 72 hours of kick - off ( see below ) .

Major League Baseball transactions
Beginning with the 2012 season , MLB allows one specific class of draft picks to be traded . As part of a newly signed collective bargaining agreement between MLB and its players ' union , each team is allocated a `` bonus pool '' -- a set amount of money it can use to sign its draft picks for that year . Teams that go over their threshold can be penalized by losing one or more future draft picks . Those forfeited draft picks will eventually end up in the possession of small - revenue teams , which can then trade them if they wish . The first picks awarded under this scheme were for the 2013 draft .
Free agent
In professional sports , a free agent is a player who is eligible to sign with any club or franchise ; i.e. , not under contract to any specific team . The term is also used in reference to a player who is under contract at present but who is allowed to solicit offers from other teams . In some circumstances , the free agent 's options are limited by league rules .

In league format , the ranking of teams in each group is based on the following criteria ( regulations Articles 20.6 and 20.7 ) :

With the adoption of MLB 's new collective bargaining agreement in November 2011 , baseball commissioner Bud Selig announced that a new playoff system would begin within the next two years ; the change was ultimately put into place in 2012 .
Survivor (franchise)
After the merge , challenges are generally performed on an individual basis . These include similar obstacle courses as for team challenges , but will often also include endurance challenges , having players maintain the balance under precarious situations for as long as possible , with the last player remaining winning the challenge . In some cases , during post-merge challenges , the individuals will be split into separate teams , with only the winning team eligible for reward or immunity . Types
Rules of netball
Netball rules do not permit players to let their landing foot touch the ground again if it is lifted at all while in possession of the ball , so players can take 1.5 steps while holding the ball . Pivoting does not count as a step . Players are entitled to balance on the other foot if the landing foot is lifted . An infraction of this rule is usually called stepping or travelling , as in the similar rule in basketball . Consequently , the only way to move the ball towards the goal is to throw the ball to a teammate . The ball can be held by a player for less than three seconds at any time . A player may tap or deflect the ball , let it bounce and then take possession and throw it . The player can not catch the ball with both hands , drop it and pick it up again ; this is called a replayed ball . The duration before it is called a drop is determined by the umpire . These rules , combined with the restrictions on where one player of a particular position can move , ensure that everyone on the team is regularly involved in play .
Rules of netball
When a goal is scored or at the start of a quarter / overtime , play is resumed from the centre of the court using a `` centre pass '' . These passes alternate between the teams , regardless of which team scored the last goal . A centre pass is made by a player in the Centre position who must have one foot grounded within the centre circle . As the game restarts , only the two Centre players are allowed in the centre third : when the umpire blows the whistle to restart play , the Goal Attack , Goal Defence , Wing Attack and Wing Defence players can move into the centre third to receive the pass . The centre pass must be caught or touched in the centre third .
The Star-Spangled Banner
`` The Star - Spangled Banner '' is traditionally played at the beginning of public sports events and orchestral concerts in the United States , as well as other public gatherings . The National Hockey League and Major League Soccer both require venues in both the U.S. and Canada to perform both the Canadian and American national anthems at games that involve teams from both countries ( with the `` away '' anthem being performed first ) . It is also usual for both American and Canadian anthems ( done in the same way as the NHL and MLS ) to be played at Major League Baseball and National Basketball Association games involving the Toronto Blue Jays and the Toronto Raptors ( respectively ) , the only Canadian teams in those two major U.S. sports leagues , and in All Star Games on the MLB , NBA , and NHL . The Buffalo Sabres of the NHL , which play in a city on the Canada -- US border and have a substantial Canadian fan base , play both anthems before all home games regardless of where the visiting team is based .

Free agent
The specific rules of restricted free agency vary among the major professional sports , but in principle it means that a player is currently signed to one team but is free to solicit contract offers from other teams ; however , this player can not sign with the competing club if the current club matches ( or in some leagues , comes within 10 % of ) the terms of the offered contract . For a restricted free agent , some leagues require the competing team to offer to the original team one or more draft picks , when an offer is not matched , as compensation for losing the player .
Direct free kick
Most teams have one or two designated free kick takers , depending on the distance from goal and the side of the field the free kick is to be taken from . The strategy may be to score a goal directly from the free kick , or to use the free kick as the beginning of a set piece leading towards a goal scoring opportunity .
Rules of netball
There are seven players on each team , who are given nominated , named positions . Each player must wear a `` bib '' showing one of the abbreviations below , indicating that player 's position . Each player is only allowed in certain areas of the court : a player in a section of the court that is not part of their playing area is deemed `` offside '' . The positions are described below :
Major League Baseball Wild Card Game
The one - game , win - or - go - home Wild Card format favors teams with at least one dominant pitcher . In the twelve games played since the new Wild Card system began in 2012 , five have been shutouts . In four of the seven others , the losing team scored 3 or fewer runs . Only the 2014 AL Wild Card game between the Kansas City Royals and Oakland Athletics and the 2017 NL Wild Card game between the Colorado Rockies and the Arizona Diamondbacks featured high scoring by both teams , with the Royals eventually winning 9 - 8 in 12 innings and the Diamondbacks winning 11 - 8 with the most runs scored in a Wild Card game . The margin of victory has been four runs or more in six of the twelve games played , and one run only once -- in the 2014 Royals - Athletics games .
2018 FIFA World Cup qualification
The formats of the qualifying competitions depended on each confederation ( see below ) . Each round might be played in either of the following formats :
National Football League on television
If the doubleheader network 's games all finish before 7 : 30 ET , it is supposed to conclude the post-game show within 10 minutes to protect NBC 's pre-game show . If any games finish after 7 : 30 , the post-game program can run until 8 : 00 ET . However , this restriction seems to apply to game footage only ; on several occasions Fox has run its post-game offering to 8 : 00 , despite all games ending before 7 : 30 , by airing only panel discussions and interviews in the latter portion of the show . On the other hand , CBS rarely airs any post-game show after its doubleheaders or 4 : 05 single - games . This is because 60 Minutes is one of its signature shows , and CBS makes every effort to start it as close to 7 : 00 or 7 : 30 -- its traditional airtime -- as possible .
Rules of netball
If a player completely misses a shot , the player may not catch it ; if she does , it is called a `` replay '' , and a free pass is awarded to the other team . If the ball is deflected off the goal keeper or goal defence and goes through the goal ring , it is a no goal and play continues .
American football rules
Officials also call for media time - outs , which allow time for television and radio advertising . They also stop the clock after a change of possession of the ball from one team to the other . Successful PATs ( Point ( s ) After Touchdown ) , a field goal try , or a kickoff may also warrant stopping the clock . If an instant replay challenge is called during the game , the referees signal for a media time out . The referee signals these media time - outs by first using the time out signal , then extending both arms in a horizontal position .
Major League Baseball Wild Card Game
Added importance to division races . Before 1994 , only division - winning teams advanced to the playoffs , creating excitement when teams within a division competed for the best record in that division . From 1994 to 2011 , the urgency of a division race was reduced when the second place team also made the playoffs as a wild card . In addition , the winner of the wild - card game is at a disadvantage in the next series , due to having to make strategic decisions to avoid immediate elimination , such as play its best pitchers available , without regard for future playoff games . Wild - card teams are penalized . In the four - team format from 1994 to 2011 , the wild - card team had to win just as many postseason games as a division winner in order to reach the World Series . Now the winner of the wild - card game is at a disadvantage because it has to play an extra game . Increases postseason interest and revenue , with the tension of a sudden - death match at the start of the playoffs , similar to tie - breaker games held to resolve regular season ties . Recent examples of this were seen in tie - breaking games in 2007 , 2008 , and 2009 , as well as the final day of the 2011 regular season . With an additional playoff spot at stake , more teams are competing at the end of the regular season for a place in the playoffs .

Mario Party
Duel minigames debuted in Mario Party 2 , and were omitted in Mario Party 4 ( though the Story minigames are all duels ) , but return again in Mario Party 5 . Duel games pit two players against each other . In Party Mode , one player initiates the duel , wagering coins or even a star against another player . The winner of the duel receives all coins or stars wagered . Starting with Mario Party 7 , the player no longer chooses the wager in a duel , rather , the duel takes place and the prize to the winner , if any , is randomly determined .
American Idol
Each season premiered with the audition round , taking place in different cities . The audition episodes typically feature a mix of potential finalists , interesting characters and woefully inadequate contestants . Each successful contestant received a golden ticket to proceed on to the next round in Hollywood . Based on their performances during the Hollywood round ( Las Vegas round for seasons 10 onward ) , 24 to 36 contestants were selected by the judges to participate in the semifinals . From the semifinals onward the contestants performed their songs live , with the judges making their critiques after each performance . The contestants were voted for by the viewing public , and the outcome of the public votes was then revealed in the results show typically on the following night . The results shows featured group performances by the contestants as well as guest performers . The Top - three results show also featured the homecoming events for the Top 3 finalists . The season reaches its climax in a two - hour results finale show , where the winner of the season was revealed .
Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?
The format in the Play It ! attraction was very similar to that of the television show that inspired it . When a show started , a `` Fastest Finger '' question was given , and the audience was asked to put the four answers in order ; the person with the fastest time was the first contestant in the Hot Seat for that show . However , the main game had some differences : for example , contestants competed for points rather than dollars , the questions were set to time limits , and the Phone - a-Friend lifeline became Phone a Complete Stranger which connected the contestant to a Disney cast member outside the attraction 's theatre who would find a guest to help . After the contestant 's game was over , they were awarded anything from a collectible pin , to clothing , to a Millionaire CD game , to a 3 - night Disney Cruise .
American football rules
If a game is tied at the end of four quarters , overtime is played . In overtime , the coin is tossed to determine which team will possess the ball first . The winner of the coin toss can choose to give the ball or receive the ball . If the first possession results in a field goal , the other team is given possession to match or better the field goal ; therefore continuing the game . If the first possession results in a touchdown or safety , the scoring team wins . During the regular season in the NFL , one overtime period is played ( with each team receiving two time outs ) . If both teams are tied after the 10 - minute overtime , the game officially ends in a tie . In the playoffs , 15 - minute overtime periods continue until a winner is determined . Overtime follows after a three - minute intermission following the end of the regulation game . Prior to start of overtime , a coin flip is performed where the captain of the visiting team calls the toss . The team that wins the coin flip has the option to either receive the kickoff or choose the side of the field they wish to defend . Ties are rare in the NFL ; a game between the Minnesota Vikings and Green Bay Packers on September 16 , 2018 ended in a 29 -- all draw . The previous occurrence was one week earlier , on September 9 , 2018 .
2018 and 2022 FIFA World Cup bids
In October 2007 , FIFA ended its continental rotation policy . Instead countries that are members of the same confederation as either of the last two tournament hosts are ineligible , leaving Africa ineligible for 2018 and South America ineligible for both 2018 and 2022 . Other factors in the selection process include the number of suitable stadiums , and their location across candidate nations . Voting is done using a multiple round exhaustive ballot system whereby the candidate receiving the fewest votes in each round is eliminated until a single candidate is chosen by the majority .
