THE SPORTS BUSINESS DAILY'S BLACKOUT MONITOR

     The following NFL games failed to sellout for this weekend
and will be blacked out in their home markets.
     NOTE:  The Lions-Vikings game was to have been blacked out
in the Twin Cities, but TCF Bank and Channel 29 teamed up to buy
the remaining 7,000 tickets.  In past years, a fund established
by General Mills had bought up remaining tickets for any game
within 10% of a sellout, but that fund dried up last year.  Five
other Vikings home games this year remain non-sellouts
(Minneapolis STAR TRIBUNE, 9/8).  San Diego's opener also sold
out just before the deadline.
