Gothamite Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 I'm not familiar, but the use of the word "scandal" indicates to me that such behavior wasn't exactly celebrated.

ridenlow71 Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 It was basically players ordering extra rings then selling them, the "scandal" part was the fact that they were still in school so it was a ncaa violation. But pro athletes have done the same thing. William "the frig" Perry is known to have 10 extra rings made of his SB ring.

AndrewPF Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 This site has all of the World Series rings, along with the league champion's ring of the runner-up. I have to say, the Red Sox AL Champs ring from '86 looks a hell of a lot better than the Mets WS ring.http://www.worldseriesrings.net/ Quote http://i.imgur.com/4ahMZxD.png koizim said: And...and ya know what we gotta do?

Roger Clemente Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 I haven't been able to find anything about it, but at the preseason NHL game in Halifax last night between the Bruins and Canadiens, during the pregame ceremony, they were honoring a former scout of the Bruins who was from Nova Scotia who passed away recently. As a token of his appreciation, the Bruins organization presented his widow, at centre ice, with a 2011 Stanley Cup Championship ring. This is first instance I've heard anything about the Bruins' ring as looking it up anywhere gives me no news about it.

powersurge Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 This site has all of the World Series rings, along with the league champion's ring of the runner-up. I have to say, the Red Sox AL Champs ring from '86 looks a hell of a lot better than the Mets WS ring.http://www.worldseriesrings.net/I actually found it fascinating that so many of the rings utilized the baseball diamond design in the center of the ring. I wonder what made them go away from that design. Could it have been the influence of the big and overdone NFL Super Bowl rings? I know that when it comes to gaudy over the top rings you can always count on the NFL to come through. I will have to do some comparisons between the NFL rings and the MLB rings year by year to see if there is any correlation. I would bet that there is.

Wally1912 Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 The entire bruins team get their rings tonightThey have followed the trend of plopping the primary logo on top of the Stanley Cup. Still, it is a great sight for sore eyes in Boston!B's Reveal Championship Ring DetailsTuesday, 10.04.2011 / 8:50 PMBOSTON, MA ? On Tuesday, October 4, 2011 the Boston Bruins unveiled their 2011 Stanley Cup Championship rings, created by Jostens.The Boston Bruins 2011 Stanley Cup ring symbolizes the team's 6th NHL Championship, celebrating each player that participated in the 2011 Stanley Cup Finals and the dramatic game seven victory over the Vancouver Canucks in Vancouver on June 15. The ring also pays tribute to the rich legacy of one of hockey?s ?Original Six? franchises through well-known symbols and events from the team?s history.The crest of the Boston Bruins 2011 Stanley Cup ring features diamond set images of the iconic Boston Bruins "B" logo and the Stanley Cup, fashioned in brilliant cut custom princess, princess and round diamonds set against a background of 14 kt. white gold. There are six larger round diamonds on the crest of the ring that represent the six Stanley Cups that the Bruins have won. The diamond-covered top of the ring is framed on the left side by ?STANLEY CUP? and on the right side by ?CHAMPIONS? to record the Bruins? 2011 achievement.One shoulder is personalized with a player?s last name and sweater number against an antique black background. The side includes an image the Bruins secondary ?Bruins Bear? logo which is surrounded by six stones honoring the Bruins as being one of the "Original Six" professional hockey franchises.The opposite shoulder of each ring features a diamond-studded Stanley Cup framed on top by "2011" in gold and diamonds which represents this year's team and the first Stanley Cup that the Bruins have won under the leadership of the Jacobs family. The years '72, '70, ?41, '39 and '29 also frame the cup and connect this year?s team to the earlier championship teams that helped build the Bruins into one of the most storied franchises.Intricate and custom engraving on the inside of each ring enhances the distinct and one-of-a-kind design. The playoff slogan that decorated the locker room during the championship run, ?FULL 60+ TO HISTORY?, is on one side while the other shows the National Hockey League shield and the four playoff opponent?s logos and series scores the Bruins won en route to the Stanley Cup.The 2011 Stanley Cup ring adds to the tremendous championship tradition of the Boston Bruins and will join the team?s earlier championship collections representing the Stanley Cup Champions of 1929, 1939, 1941, 1970 and 1972.Including all variations of the Stanley Cup Championship ring the Jacobs family purchased and distributed a total of 505 rings.

nmsuaggie Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 I was wondering since worldseriesrings.net shows both the MLB championship and the ring that the losing team wins, is there a site that shows the Super Bowl loser's rings?
