This is the correct answer.

If I'm in the Hall of Fame I've probably got a lot of money, or can get some.

Plenty of 3rd-stringers who had to go back to selling insurance have SB rings.

That made me curious, so I looked.

If you believe the provenance, there are a couple of HoF rings for sale.

Willie Wood - Buy it now for $2.5 million LMAO http://www.ebay.com/bhp/hall-of-fame-ring

Emlen Tunnell - Buy it now for $50,000 :hmmm: http://www.ebay.com/itm/like/281015660551?lpid=82

I can't tell if the Super Bowl rings are real, but there are four on ebay where someone's asking a fortune, plus a number of replicas: http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=...l+ring&_sop=16

I wasn't aware of this, but thanks to your post I now know about it. I'm going to start making casual references to it in conversation to help it catch on. Thank you.

tough decision

Wait, we talking bags here?

losing the super bowl ring doesn't take away the super bowl victory


many of those SB rings are gaudy looking crap too


wonder how much the Hall of fame rings are worth?

Hall

Hall of Fame. No question. There's so much that's out of your hands as an individual player as far as winning a championship goes.

Dilfer sells dime bags?

I wouldn't want to be a back up and ride the bench to a championship, but I would like to be a contributing factor on a super bowl team. My reasoning is as simple as Herm's. You PLAY to Win the GAME. Think how you would feel, knowing that every year of your career you ultimately failed to reach your goal. Give me the Lombardi.

I would think as a player your goal would be to win a Super Bowl ring and your dream is to earn a Hall of Fame ring. So I would say the HOF ring would mean more.

It's every players goal to win the Superbowl. But you also have to acknowledge as a player that it's not just one player that gets you to the SB or wins it. Look at Tony G. Arguably the best TE to ever play the game....and never came close to a ring. You can't help it if you're stuck on a team that never makes it or has the chance to make it.

I can buy a Super Bowl ring from Pawn Stars.

I can't buy my way into the HOF.

I couldn't agree more, that's why I think the Hall of Fame ring is a bigger deal because it judges the player on his individual merits.
