"10-Table" Super Bowl Ring for Giants
The Giants have selected a design for their Super Bowl XLII championship ring, and it's certainly noticeable. Designed by Tiffany & Co., the white gold ring features three Lombardi trophies and a lot of diamonds (Tiffany also makes the Lombardi trophy). Michael Strahan wanted a "10 table ring"-- as in people would be able to see it 10 tables away (not 10 tables heavy).
Player Shaun O'Hara, who sat on the design team along with Strahan, Eli Manning, Amani Toomer, coach Tom Coughlin and Giants management, told reporters, "There was some discussion about maybe one of the rings was too big. I threw out the fact that it was a big win, it was a huge win, so the ring should be designed accordingly."
One side will have the player's name and number, plus the phrase "Eleven on the Road." The other side will say "Super Bowl XLII" with the date.

forget the score of the game, it should have the numbers 18-1
I agree, I was wondering what 17-14 was. guess its too late for tiffany's to do it over.
it's actually a pretty nice looking ring as far as championship rings go.

That's it Mike...keep it classy, baby.
yeah 18-1 would be real classy. Wankers.
Well deserved.
Strahan needs something of value to offer his next ex-wife to keep her away from his bank account.
It's a fine enough ring. I would take the score off though only because I wouldn't want the initials "NE" to appear anywhere on it. I don't think the "Eleven straight on the road" is that important either, but I guess it is an NFL record.
And just think, in around ten years you'll probably be able to buy one of these on eBay.
If it were mine, I'd add a middle finger and "Eff the haters." But that's just me.
The best part is the personalized name on it. Makes each one of different value.
t'was a joke Captain Morgan. Just a joke.
