    Official: Giants vs. Fins in London

    Off the AP wire at work ....

    Giants to play Dolphins in London next season
    By BARRY WILNER
    AP Football Writer
    MIAMI (AP) - The Miami Dolphins will host the New York Giants in a regular-season game in London later this year.
    A person familiar with the NFL's decision told The Associated Press on Thursday that the Dolphins will move a home game overseas. The source spoke on condition of anonymity because the announcement will not be made until after commissioner Roger Goodell's Super Bowl news conference Friday.

      Although I would have been happy to see them on National TV, I'm glad that they don't have to go overseas for it. Sucks for Miami.

            People say it's an honor to be selected to play in this game. Personally I think it's akin to being selected for jury duty.

              Losing a home game just plain sucks. I am 100% glad it's not Buffalo.

              I think the Bills will get alot more TV time this year based on the schedule and the fact that they will be a very good team this coming year.

                Gee, do you think season tickets for the fish be cheaper, I bet they get screwed! As much as I love the dolphins (2 wins a year) I feel for their fans! I am sure w. Huz will get a boatload of cash from the stadium over there and screw his own fans with season ticket prices!

                  I did hear that they gave both us and the Giants our by week after the game so at least we wont have a short week coming home. With all the travel it will be a short week leading up to the game but probably not much worse than playing on Thanksgiving.

                    I still absolutely HATE the idea of a regular season game being "hosted" overseas. I hope the ratings tank.

                      I can't believe that they didn't have you traveling to NE immediately after getting back. Congrats on the bye week at least.
