Money for London game?

[PhinsPhan122]

I read on AOL Fanhouse today an article that says that the NFL will be paying the New Orleans Saints for their lost home game by playing in England this coming year. It says that the money is to cover lost expenses like ticket revenue, parking and concessions.

Here is a link to the article

My question is, did we receive any compensation? I don't remember any. I'll admit, I could be mistaken or perhaps we did and it wasn't a big deal because our franchise is in a slightly better state than New Orleans. But, if we didn't and New Orleans did, shouldn't Dolphins front office and ownership be upset? That game supposedly made a lot of money for the NFL, not only now but in the long run.

Of course we got paid, 1st and formost, Huizenga is a businessman, and is in the business of making money, not losing it. I;m sure we came out of it with more than we put in.
