Rings!!!
« on: March 01, 2006, 06:18:09 pm »
I know it's not the ring everyone wanted, but...

"All uniformed personnel from last year's pennant-winning club will be sized for rings on Thursday at the Kissimmee complex. A diagram of the National League champion ring was posted on the bulletin board in the Astros clubhouse Wednesday.

On the top, an Astros star -- filled with 20 diamonds -- sits atop a large ruby, with four diamonds down each side. The top is engraved with "National League Champions."

On one side, the player's name will be engraved next to the words "First World Series," with an Astros logo sitting on top of a logo of the state of Texas.

The other side will feature an engraved "Astros," a depiction of Minute Maid Park and the year "2005."

In addition to players and coaches, all full-time Astros employees will receive a National League championship ring."

Love to see a picture of that.
