CLAYTON SAYS NFL MEETING IN ATLANTA MAY BE "INTERESTING"

          NFL owners meet in Atlanta today and on the agenda is
     part of a lawsuit filed by Raiders Owner Al Davis which
     claims that Commissioner Paul Tagliabue and former President
     Neal Austrian set up an executive compensation fund that was
     not fully disclosed (see THE DAILY, 11/30).  ESPN's John
     Clayton said today could be the "preview of what's going to
     be a very wild trial [Davis vs. NFL] because ... [Davis] is
     going to make a presentation [that] there's been a
     malfeasance of several top people in the NFL, including
     [Tagliabue and Austrian], and he's going to go down the list
     of 50 people that he thinks misappropriated funds and took
     them into their pockets. ... He is going have the owners try
     to act on it, and if they don't act ... he's going to
     include this in his lawsuit and try to get more damages out
     of the NFL.  It should be interesting" (ESPN2, 11/30).
