Man

That just looks like what a SB Champ ring should be

Beautiful...

If it isn’t an actual ring, then it should be the “Fan’s Ring” for being the 12th man…

I kinda think SB rings are horribly tacky and gaudy. But this is the nicest of the bunch.

I think that's one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen.

Maybe we should invite our friends from TDN over for a look-see. Kinda drive home the point that what’s done is done.

Although how is that a ring?

Wouldn’t the main piece sit facing out? Am I looking at it wrong?

good catch...

that is likely just the crown of the ring.

It's totally gorgeous and all...

…and what it symbolizes is truly amazing.

but, as far as Super Bowl rings go, I think they could have done better.

It’s smaller than many recent SB rings, that’s for sure.

I personally don’t like yellow gold colored rings, although we could have made it work if we had more black… black diamonds would have spruced it up a bit.

I know

It would be funny if they were purposefully corny (like the mentos commercials or something). They make me cringe. I lunge for the remote when they come on.

Go to Yahoo Images and enter Super Bowl Rings to see pics of many of the past rings.

I like the ones that have the city and team name on them. Some are pretty intricate. I’ve only seen one SB ring in person and it looked like it weighed about 5 pounds!

How soon do you think these will be popping up in French Quarter gift shops?

When do you think Drew will show up on Wheaties boxes?

Why isn’t brett on the side of milk cartons?

Discuss.

Verrry Nice...

I wonder if Dave can somehow find out if that truly is the real design and not just a mock-up. Keep us informed if you find out any updated information on that with your typical great detective work!

Maybe if you can't afford a ring (or a replica)

you can get a tatoo of the ring instead

Is the guy’s finger going through the ring? If so, why would they have the fleur-de-lis sideways on the ring? Seems like it should run top to bottom parallel with the finger, not perpendicular.

by coldpizza on May 28, 2010 11:27 PM CDT reply actions  

I was thinking the same thing, CP

Looks to me like it should be the other way. That’s why I was wondering if this was the actual ring chosen, or perhaps one of the designs they were considering when making up the ring. If the finger is actually in the ring (as opposed to supporting it) then the crown appears to be sideways. I still like the design, though, as long as the fleur faces the right way when the ring is worn!

I don't believe this is the real thing!!

Two things:

It doesn’t have th trophy on it. All of the newer ones have the trophy. And does he have his finger in it? If so, the ring is sideways.

it gives me goose bumps, but I’ve had them since Feb.7. I’m also still pinching myself.
