OnWis97 Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 Really like the sides of the ring. That was the biggest disappointment for me on the Packers ring. The sides were so plain.I like the side with the Lombardi Trophy, but I don't like how busy it looks with all those years squeezed in. The other side would be nice, but I hate that they used "New York Football Giants". I wish that term would go away. It's been nearly 60 years since that distinction was needed.Still a great ring overall though, because the top (the most important part) is beautiful.

infrared41 Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 I still get a kick out of the NFL being the only sport to call their respective champions, "world champions."You sure about that? Baseball is pretty popular too by the way... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ridenlow71 Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 Yeah hockey rings say "Stanley Cup Champions". But NFL MLB and NBA all say world champs. Quote Part owner in the Green Bay Packers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gothamite Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 A pawn shop? That's unspeakably sad. She would have gotten so much more if she put it up for auction, and there's a very good auction house in Milwaukee that could have handled it. Quote The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database!

rams80 Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 I think some/most NBA banners say World Champions.Really? Haha, that's funny to me.To me, a world champion would be a team or group that beat the best in the world. Like the World Cup in soccer. Not winning a Super Bowl or NBA Title. Just because the NFL and NBA are the most popular sports.There is not a club team in the world that could take a 7 game series from the respective league champions there. And a CFL-NFL game (assuming they could agree on the rules) would not be pretty to watch if you were a Canadian.
