FAST FACTS

SI conducted its poll last September, before the Dolphins (and QB David Garrard, above) were chosen for the current (seventh) iteration of the NFL reality show.... Young players seem to be more interested than veterans in the added exposure: 51% of those aged 21 to 24 said yes, compared with 44% of those 25 to 29 and 27% of those 30 and older.... The Aug. 7 premier was watched by 737,000 people, the second-largest debut audience for the show since 2002, behind the '10 season featuring the Jets.
