DETROIT (AP) --       DETROIT (AP) - The Detroit Lions game against the St. Louis Rams
will be blacked out on TV in and around the Motor City.
      Lions spokesman Bill Keenist confirms Thursday the team did not
sell all of the 10,000-plus tickets that were still available the
previous day.
      The lackluster game featuring the 1-5 Lions and the winless Rams
will be blacked out in the Detroit, Lansing, Saginaw-Flint and
Toledo, Ohio, markets.
      Detroit sold out two of its first four games, getting a lot of
help the last time it was home from Pittsburgh Steelers fans who
filled Ford Field to make it look and sound as if the Lions were on
the road.
