I was pulling for the Colts (I always root for the AFC), but I didn't mind that the Saints won the game. They certainly earned it.
I was happy that several Hurricanes, Jeremy Shockey & Jonathan Vilma, were able to win their first rings, especially as both had difficult periods in their career up to this point.
Dave Barry has a nice little column on the game.
Did Shockey not get a ring with the Giants in 2008? I know he did not play in the playoffs due to his injury towards the end of the year, but he had played that season. And I know he was bitter at the end of the year due to talks of trading him ... but he had to have been given a ring at some point ... right?
ReplyDeleteI don't believe that he did. He was on injured reserve, therefore not on the roster while still being controlled by the team.
ReplyDeleteI don't think he ended up with a ring, but I could be wrong.
