A story with a nice ring to it

On Tuesday night, the Miami Heat received their 2006 NBA Championships rings before their season opener against the Chicago Bulls. As you can see, the ring is bigger than most people’s fist. Unfortunately for the Heat fans, their team was downright scary on Halloween, losing to the Bulls by 42 after receiving their rings. The fans were also able to get in on the fun of owning a Miami Heat Championship ring, as they were selling replica rings in the team store during Tuesday’s game. I just hope the players and the fans will be more responsible with their rings then Lawrence Phillips was with his Big Eight Championship ring a few years ago.
