Too bad I didn't have the cash.......buy all 53 and melt them down to remove all evidence of the event.

Not shocking. Toothless douche nearly lost all his money to the divorce. Which I'm glad cause that pos beat up his wife.

There is a reason why he came back for the 2007 season. He needed the money.

I think people forget this is just a job to some guys.

I guess reading really is a lost art...

8 players sold their rings within 6 months and while still on the team. I'd guess those guys were PS or end of roster players making less per month than that ring brought, and it likely paid off some debt or kept them afloat. Heck, that was an unusual team in that two heros of that game were either out of work or in jail in two years. This ring is one of those 8 sold in 2008 that an investor/collector bought at that time and is now looking to resell...

Indeed......

Obviously you didn't read the article. Also, he's not toothless. You seem to be the one who's the douche.

Who would buy the ring someone else earned? I couldn't be around something like that, nevermind have it in my house under those circumstances. It would be the most depressing thing in the world to have the culmination of someone's life work, and symbolic of the zenith of athletic accomplishment, that I had acquired through something ultimately meaningless.

You're kidding, right? That would be the ultimate in memorabilia to have. I remember seeing a Patriots Super Bowl 36 players' ring for sale some time ago. I couldn't afford it but man, it would have been a really[/]i nice thing to own.

Shrug. And I did. And he may not be toothless but he has diastema.

Also, he is a douche. A wife beating douche who chocked and battered his wife.

Well, then you should have known he wasn't necessarily the guy who sold the ring. Nowhere in the article did it say he did.

Sure, he has diastema. No big deal.

If those allegations are true, then that's terrible. Then I'll agree with you and say he is a douche.

I bet Tiki Barber bought one.

I heard Jim Kelly buys one every 4 years.

This makes me even more pissed that NE lost that game. You know that that game would have been special to EACH AND EVERY member of that team.

The ring would have been worth more thats for sure. Players sell their SB rings all the time. Some lower payed 3rd stingers likely would have sold theirs too.

I hear you. It still burns me up inside, though.
