Nice slap in the face of those chokers:

And there it is.
When seeing the box last night containing the new Super Bowl rings to be distributed to the New England Patriots, the jokes emerged about the presence of a 28-3 reference somewhere on the ring. I went with the obvious, low-hanging-fruit suggestion that 28-3 should be etched onto the ring somewhere. The Patriots opted for something more subtle.
Via Darren Rovell of ESPN.com, the Patriots have confirmed that each ring has 283 diamonds.
It’s obviously no coincidence. And it’s also not really a slap at the Falcons; they know very well they blew a 28-3 lead. But the Patriots came back from that deficit, so 28-3 is more of a rallying cry for them than a shot fired at the Falcons.
While it may not supplant “do your job,” the comeback from a 28-3 hole late in the third quarter shows what can actually happen when the focus remains on solely and exclusively on getting the job done regardless of the dire nature of any situation. Or something.

Not trying to be too technical here... (because I loved the outcome of the game) but shouldnt there only be 31 diamonds not 283? I mean the score was 28-3, I mean if they wish to commemerate that the score of the game at that time, wouldn't have been easier to just have 28 diamonds on one side and 3 more on the other?

Hate the Falcons, but the only way to answer back is to win the Superbowl this year... How else can you answer?

Honestly this seems like one of the dumbest things ever.

so if you look at the ring and have no idea about this little lame nugget of trivia nothing will stand out.
They should etch a picture of the 28-3 scoreboard on the inside of the ring. It's big enough....

Why?
It was medoza line.
It was when it all turned.
I can only imagine what the birds were saying to the pats players at that point.
It was the start of the greatest comeback in SB history.
It shows no matter how far down in life you are...there is still a chance.
Now your turn. List all the reasons why its one of the dumbest things ever.

Best troll job by a sports team that I can think of.

I fail to see how your hypothetical is any more correct than what they did, at all.........
So I'm glad you were not trying to be technical, because you weren't.

This is LEGEND.
Let's be honest, though...had the Saints lost that way, we'd be like...those MFers.
