In a determined grab for legitimacy, the Fox Television Network outbid CBS by about $100 million Friday for rights to televise NFC games and the 1997 Super Bowl. Then on Saturday, the NFL announced that it had renewed its deals with ABC for "Monday Night Football" and with ESPN and TNT for Sunday night games. "We regard this NFC franchise as the crown jewel of all sports programming in the world and will give it our complete commitment," Fox owner Rupert Murdoch said in a statement.

That left CBS and NBC bidding for the AFC. The deal stunned John Madden and Pat Summerall, CBS's top football announcing team. "It was strange and surprising," Madden said from Detroit, O. oo canton na. yo-y444 (1 Blk N.

RECORDSCOACHES Cavs were 7-13 going into last night's game at Detroit and are in their first season under Mike Fratelto. Lakers, coached by Randy Pfund, are 8-15. NOTEBOOK Be thankful that you were a couple thousand miles away when these teams played on Nov. 14. Put it this way: Both teams played a weak game, and that's being nice.

Still, the Lakers were good enough to win, 107-100. Two reasons why the Lakers are seven games under .500: They don't shoot well (.455 from the field) and they don't play good defense (opponents shoot 47 percent against them, sixth-worst in the league). They don't have a scorer in the league's top 40 and, like the Cavs, have difficulty getting 100 points. The Lakers start rookie Nick Van Exel at point guard. Mis shot is erratic at times, but Van Exel still goes to the basket strong and passes for six assists per game.

Interesting matchup: Whomever the Cavs start at small forward vs. Doug Christie. The 6-foot-6 Christie repeatedly got easy put-backs against the Cavs in the first game the teams played. NEXT HOME GAME Dec. 21 vs.

"Even though you knew Fox was coming with something, you knew they were serious, you knew they were a player, then boom, boom, boom, you didn't expect them to take the NFC's package." Summerall, a 32-year veteran at CBS Sports, said, "It's a shock. It hurts.

It's a big part of my life." Although neither Fox nor the NFL announced figures, industry sources said Fox would pay the league about $395 million per year for four years, for a total of $1.58 billion. That's about $130 million a year more than what CBS paid over the past four years. The Associated Press learned that CBS on Friday made a bid for AFC games, currently carried by NBC. NBC now must match the offer or lose the AFC package it has carried since 1970. The NFL said it hoped to announce the AFC package "in the near future." The mood at CBS was somber and not optimistic.

CBS, however, declined to confirm any aspect of NFL talks. "We have no comment until the negotiations are concluded," CBS Sports spokeswoman Susan Kerr said. Similarly, NBC Sports spokesman Ed Markey said: "Since we're in the middle of negotiations with the NFL, we're not in a position to comment." Not only has the NFC won the last nine Super Bowls, it also has either the only team or the more popular team in some of the biggest TV markets, such as New York and Chicago. CBS has televised NFL games since 1956. The current TV package has been in place with few changes since the NFL and AFL merged in 1970.

CBS has done the NFC, NBC has done the AFC, and ABC has aired Monday night games. All three networks lost money on the NFL in the past four years, perhaps as much as $300 million combined. CBS was the big loser at about $200 million, with NBC losing about $75 million and ABC losing the rest. Four years ago, the NFL added a package of Sunday night games split between ESPN and TNT. The 4-year package, worth about $3.62 billion to the NFL, expires at the end of this season.

CBS paid $1.06 billion over the past four seasons. ABC paid $925 million for four years of Monday nights, and NBC got the AFC for $752 rhillion. ESPN and TNT each paid about $450 million. Figures for the new Monday night and cable packages were not available. Sources close to Murdoch said the billionaire media mogul said he was well aware his NFL bid would be a big money loser.

Some industry insiders predict it could lose in excess of $500 million. However, Murdoch also expects Fox's first major foray into sports programming to increase the value of the network. Launched in 1987, Fox has 139 affiliates nationwide and reaches a potential 92 percent of American homes. About 120 of those affiliates, however, are smaller UHF stations that don't necessarily carry Fox's signal all day.
