70Chip Posted August 19, 2004 Share Posted August 19, 2004 Dustin -- I see that the Patriots have personalized mock Super Bowl rings for sale. A year from now I want one of these from the Skins. Thanks, Buddy! http://proshop.patriots.com/index.cfm?ac=ViewProductDetail&PID=2754&CP=2 Lots of good stuff at the Patriots shop. . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fuji869 Posted August 19, 2004 Share Posted August 19, 2004 I would buy one or three for the Redskins! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. S Posted August 19, 2004 Share Posted August 19, 2004 wow, i personally think its pretty lame. Would you really want someone wearing a college ring like yours or something? I know its definitely not as nice or rich looking, but I would be annoyed if I was a Pats player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
70Chip Posted August 19, 2004 Author Share Posted August 19, 2004 It's not really the same -- the design isn't the same and you would definitely be able to tell the difference if you put one of these next to a real one, which is encrusted with diamonds. Most people wouldn't know the difference though. What we *really* need (and I'm serious this time!) is one of these (with all *three* rings): http://proshop.patriots.com/index.cfm?ac=ViewProductDetail&PID=5611&Search=true Every collector will want one of these. See the exact replica of the Patriots Super Bowl XXXVI and Super Bowl XXXVIII rings protected in durable acrylic forever. Great gift idea! Dustin?

TenaciousB15 Posted August 19, 2004 Share Posted August 19, 2004 Lame idea. Lets buy a replica to celebrate my 'accomplishment' as a fan??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To some extent, I agree & to another extent, I kinda like it. If they ever make a mock version of the Trophies as collectors items, they will sell like crazy, so why not the rings? I have a picture that is worth over $600 from Super Bowl XXII of the Redskins coming out onto the field. They hadn't even started playing the game yet, but this picture is worth so much because there are so few of them. Why wouldn't I want a replica of the rings? :logo: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am surprised they haven't marketed this for the 3 superbowls we already won. Great collector's item. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red zone Posted August 19, 2004 Share Posted August 19, 2004 Reminds of the "wings" the stewardesses (yes, that's what they were called back in the day) used to give you when you were a kid flying on an airplane.

gridironmike Posted August 19, 2004 Share Posted August 19, 2004 What's lame about it? Alot of fans invest thousands of dollars in season tickets, merchandise, NFL Sunday Ticket, and sports bars to support the Redskins. If you can get a little piece of the championship, why not? The Redskins actually did have a twelth man Super Bowl ring for Super Bowl XXVI. I remember Balfour made a Cowboys Super Bowl XXVII ring for the fans. It is not uncommon.

gridironmike Posted August 19, 2004 Share Posted August 19, 2004 Why would you want a football that will deflate and the autogrpahs probably look like scribbles? Because thats what you like. If the Redskins win, and someone produces a ring, I'll purchase it and be damn proud to wear it. I will have helped plenty. My purchases will have helped pay the players that won it, not to mention the home field advantage I will have helped bring to FedEx. EDIT- Why would you support the Washington Redskins? I don't think any of them are native to DC and none are "Native Americans". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think most that know me know I am a Redskins fan and would know why I've got a fan Super Bowl ring. I already wear a balfour ring and one of the pewter rings to the game. Geez. Besides, I don't visit gay bars whether we win or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TenaciousB15 Posted August 19, 2004 Share Posted August 19, 2004 Originally posted by jbooma :laugh: :laugh: I can see collecting for a collection but wearing it Exactly the point I was about to make. I might understand, putting a nicer looking replica on display. Not the one that was shown orginally though. But wearing it is a little different. A general ring, advertising a team is different though. I think thats okay. More people need to learn this jewelary etiquette. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
