Super Bling, Baby! Part XLIV





Presented last night at the historic Roosevelt Hotel in a private ceremony closed to both the public and the press.

Drew Brees and his adorable wife, now expecting their second child, pulled up to the hotel in a horse-drawn carriage. Pretty apropos for a team once considered a Cinderella.

But, as to the rings themselves? Now THAT'S what I'm talkin' 'bout! A Super Beauxl Championship ring with a serious New Orleans flavor.

Who Dat sayin' New Orleans ain't afraid to display a little ostentation!

Bling, baby, bling!

If one wears such a ring and lifts one's arm from time to time, one probably gets enough weight training to skip a day or two of weight training!

(Remember in the olden days when girls with tiny fingers would wear their boyfriends' class ring around their necks on a chain? I wouldn't advise that practice with this ring -- it could lead to a bad case of muscle spasms -- or whiplash!)

Voluntary mini-training camp, over -- countdown to pre-season, begun!

Geaux Saints!!
UPDATE: The Saints organization is raffling off one of their blingy rings with proceeds going to Gulf clean-up and recovery efforts. Just thought I'd mention it. Sorry, you won't have a chance to win the ring -- that's MINE!

  2. Moogie, further congrats on your Saints. Would you believe that Pam still wears my high school ring on a chain around her neck occasionally.

    Sure you would.

    Good luck on the raffle. If you win it, I'll expect you to donate it to charity.

    Nyuk...

  4. Oooh, we has VERY mixed emotions on the bling-thing, Precious. Oh yesss, we does!

    But a championship? Not one single conflicting emotion whatsoever. Those are ALWAYS great good things.
