MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — A federal judge backed the NFL players' union over the league yesterday in a dispute over television revenue with implications for the looming potential lockout. U.S. District Judge David Doty ruled that the league violated its agreement with the union in carving out $4 billion for itself in additional TV revenue, money the union says the owners are stockpiling to prepare for a lockout.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The NFL and the players' union met for the eighth day since a federal mediator joined the talks. The current collective bargaining agreement expires at midnight Thursday becomes Friday on the East Coast.
