dbadefense1990 Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 I like it.To Kidd, Terry, Dirk and Marion, this represents all the sweat and tears they've (and the entire city of Dallas has) been waiting for. Great rings! Hopefully it's not their only ones, but given the dominance of OKC so far in 2012, I don't know... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbadefense1990 Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 I mean, the whole belts thing after a championship is a completely idiotic idea to me. Symbolizing arrogance and cockiness, these stunts are lowblow towards the losers; a complete d0uche move by the winning team (imagine if the Giants did that in front of Kyle Williams' face). Hate it!

Billy B Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 I don't see how a belt conveys that message any more than a giant ring does. And that's just bad by the Blackhawks for using that shoulder logo on the belt. How hard is it to use the actual shoulder logo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gothamite Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 I think we all know that NBA teams would crush the competition--but the point is that a world club competition doesn't exist. Therefore, not "world champs". </pedant>I cannot agree. The NBA is unquestionably the highest level of competition in the world. Its champion can lay claim to the "world" title just as the MLB and NFL champions can and do. Now, you could say that it's a dubious achievement, since there isn't any competition for the title. But that doesn't change the situation. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LMU Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 You can make the argument that they are the world champions due to the NBA featuring the best players in the world, not necessarily basing that on the team locations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rainmaker17 Posted January 26, 2012 Author Share Posted January 26, 2012 Jesus, really? They received rings, not belts. It seems like most championship rings now say "World Champions" anyway. I don't see the big deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FiddySicks Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Match up a winner of the Super Bowl/NBA Finals/WORLD Series/Stanley Cup with any winner of any other league in the world (and no, I don't mean team Japan, I mean like the San Francisco Giants vs the Tokyo Giants with their regular rosters or whoever it may be) and the American clubs would systematically destroy those teams every year. It's one thing to have a stellar national club, it's another entirely to have a league team that could be that competitive.

ridenlow71 Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Every sport in the USA puts world champion on their rings..going back to the Packers first Super Bowl ring. Does it really matter? If you want to go down that road why is it called the "World Series?" Part owner in the Green Bay Packers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
