Playoff perils

So, how bad is the economy? Look no further than Minnesota.

The Minnesota Viking football team, which boasts a rather proud history, is in the National Football League playoffs beginning Sunday.

However, as of noon New Year's Day, 8,000 tickets remained unsold and area fans are looking at the possibility of not being able to watch on television due to a league-mandated blackout.

That is difficult to imagine.
