The Indianapolis Colts got their Super Bowl rings in a private ceremony, and they are symbolic works of art.
"It's more than a fine piece of jewelry," said team owner Jim Irsay, who issued about 275 of the rings to players, coaches, other members of his organization and a few close acquaintances at a private ceremony Wednesday evening at the posh Indiana Roof Downtown. "It represents so much more."
There's the word "Faith'' on one shank, or side, of the ring. Faith "gives you the strength to have the perseverance to move forward even after many disappointments,'' Irsay explained.
"Faith," as it turns out, is also Peyton Manning's and Marvin Harrison's favorite George Michael song. They just can't believe he turned out to be gay. I mean, who saw that coming?

Sometimes in the shower Peyton can be seen staring at Marvin and sighing, under his breath, "I guess it'd be nice, if I could touch your body / 'cause I know not everybody has got a body like you." Oh, the tragedy of forbidden love.
Somehow I think a lot of the Colts already know what shank means.
Jesus, football players are such dipshits. This is the same reason they all think Yahweh wants them to win every Sunday.
So that's what happened to George Michael? See, when you keep playing with a "sports machine" alone in a room late on Sunday Nights….it makes you gay.
*sigh* I didn't see it coming. I mean, the I Want Your Sex video girl was his girlfriend!!! Of course, I didn't know the Village People were gay either. I sometimes think growing up in NH might have been a detriment to the development of my gay-dar.
And like George Michael, Peyton and Marvin will be busted in a park bathroom showing each other their rings. Cockrings, that is.
Today's bloggings are worst than FX's broadcast of Rescue Me's season premier last night. Matt must have some shit going on behind the scenes.
worse
Matt must have some shit going on behind the scenes.
You mean like leaving early to catch a train, like I said in a SITE NEWS update? Excellent sleuthing, sir.
And they're called "posts," not "bloggings."
How does an "Indiana Roof Downtown" qualify as "posh"?
i belive that The Olive garden qualifies as posh when in Indiana.
also, that picture is a slap in the face to every straight man that has ever worn a football helmet.
This clip is a bit long but the second contestant (from 2:20+) does the greatest rendition of George Michael's Faith in the history of spoof sketches.

The Colts! (Featuring Peyton Manning.)
It's coming. You just know it is.
At least George Michael went in head first.
I guess "Faith" was easier to fit on the ring than Tony Dungy's original choice: "God Hates Fags."
Did Dungy sacrifice his son for a super bowl ring?
Sorry I couldn't resist.
I actually prefer 'bloggings.' It's got a nicer ring to it. I have certainly made my way onto Ufford's shit list.
On side sad Faith. The other side of Tony Dungy's read: "Would have been back-to-back if my douche bag son didn't kill himself."
First the Pats are the homosexuals and now the Colts? So, you have to be a champion to be the queers in the NFL? Terrell Owens thinks not.
Hold up…275 rings? Exactly how many of those rings went to the team groupies?
