This sucks (especially the White House trip)...

http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2011/03/20/packers-super-bowl-rings-on-hold-for-now/

The Green Bay Packers will have to wait for some of the usual spoils that come with a Super Bowl title.

Bill Pennington of the New York Times notes that the Packers havent ordered their Super Bowl rings yet. The team wants input from the players, and cant speak with them until the lockout is over. Teams usually have a some sort of ring ceremony during the offseason as well, which will also be put off if there is no agreement.

The Packers trip to the White House has also been delayed indefinitely.

(The Steelers arent going either. James Harrison was right!)

How does it suck? How does it affect you personally in any way?

He never said it affected him in any way personally. He said it sucks. Maybe he meant that it sucks for the players and staff who are looking forward to receiving those rings but will have to wait for them indefinitely.

Where did they mention it was affecting them personally in any way? I know its early for me, and I'm poor with my reading skills but I don't see that anywhere.

Yes it does...I was looking forward to Charles Woodson meeting with President Obama in the White House...

...after the President's comments about going to Dallas if Chicago was in the SB...

...his subsequent visit to Wisconsin in advance of the SB...

...and being given a Woodson-signed Jersey that said "See you in the White House"...

I am DEFINITELY looking forward to that trip...so, yes, it DOES affect me personally... :bounce:

beast (8-Jan) : Guys that have a good shot at making the NFL Hall of Fame usually get into their teams pretty fast

beast (8-Jan) : Yeah, but is Kampman and the others in the NFL Hall of Fame?

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : Johnson was Hall of Fame, 2020. Should haev been in Ring a year later, not three years.

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : I could be wrong there though

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : Jones took his sweet ole time!

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : Yeah, he's in the ring of honor, just saw video and his name is up there

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : Didn't they have a thing in 2023 for Jimmy's ring of honor? I swear I saw it

beast (8-Jan) : Though if they're legitimately trying to re-sign MM, then it makes sense.

beast (8-Jan) : Jerry Jones still hasn't put Jimmy Johnson in the Ring of Honor, but he's in the NFL's Hall of Fame, Jones is petty

Mucky Tundra (8-Jan) : Unless the Cowboys are planning an extension, seems kinda petty

beast (8-Jan) : Cowboys denied Bears request

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : From what I'm reading, MM is under contract through the 14th of January; after that he's free game
