A few members were wondering about the Giants' rings from SB 42 a few weeks ago. Well, there was an article in today's NY Daily News that displayed the winning design:

They are by Tiffany & Co, maker of the 1987 Redskins and 2002 Bucs rings.

At first I was a bit disappointed that there was no blue on it; I thought the NY could have been colored blue. The more I look at it though, the more I like it. It is big, no question, but it's very straightforward and symbolic. And it has a square/rectangular table on top, which is how I think rings should look. There is an article on giants.com that speaks about the design in depth.

All in all very classy and well done.

Kinda looks like App's championship ring:

I'm guessing that nobody's ever gonna get over Appalachian St. beating Michigan in Ann Arbor, not when you immortalize it on a ring. :P

I liked the prototype better, but that's still a nice ring for the Giants. It's probably gonna be ginormous.

YES, OMG THE NEW YORK FOOTBALL GIANTS ARE WORLD CHAMPIONS OF AMERICAN FOOTBALL!

Who knew that NYC vs. Boston represents the world?

God bless America and their world view.

OK....I challenge you to name one American Football team outside of the United States of America that could hang with the Giants for five minutes.

The world champions moniker is appropriate.

I too think the blue rings looked nicer but I do like the "eleven straight on the road" part of the design.

That "eleven straight on the road" thing looks kind of out of place, doesn't it? It's an accomplishment, yeah, but so what? The big win was the Super Bowl, and it seems like that's what the Super Bowl ring should represent.

And on the same token, Appalachain State didn't beat Michigan to win the Div. II national championship, so why is that score on the ring? I mean, yeah, I get it, but that doesn't mean it makes a whole lot of sense.

That was my reaction, too. Why would you have the score from the first game of the season on a championship ring? Yes, they beat Michigan, but to add it to the NC ring? Strange.
