    Is Jostens Back to Designing NFL Same-Mold-Every-Year Championship Rings Again?

     

    Tom III hit the nail on the head again recently.

     

    Tom and I are both are alluding to the similar run Jostens did in 2003, 2004, 2005, 2007, and 2008. (see picture below)

     

    During this six season stretch, Jostens designed and manufactured four NFC conference championship rings and one AFC conference championship ring with almost identical tops.

     

    Sorry it’s not shown to scale, but note that during this time, only the Bears massive and unique 2006 NFC conference championship ring was a different design (also made by Jostens).

     

    Who knows if Jostens would have designed the 2014 NFC championship ring in a similar fashion like the two championship rings shown below.  They were not given a chance, as the Seahawks went with Tiffany and company who made a very bland championship ring.

    I'm sure the reason Jostens does this is cost. Most teams who lose the Super Bowl aren't exactly happy about it and as someone mentioned before most players don't even wear their conference rings.

    Beautiful design, but it's way too big. In that picture of the player wearing one, it looks like he's wearing a paperweight on his index finger. I'd want a ring I could wear.

    That's because the players want it this way.  I remember Michael Strahan famously said he wanted a 10 table ring.  Meaning you could see it from 10 tables over at a restaurant.  So as long as we're in the "bling" era the rings will just keep growing.
