The NFL lockout has prevented Packers players from receiving their Super Bowl rings in a public ceremony or making the customary trip to the White House. Getting tatted up with the former is one way to solve that problem.

My biggest concern for Shields is that he becomes a free agent after the 2012 season. When he walks into a negotiating meeting at Lambeau Field with a four-inch Packers G popping from his shirt collar, reason dictates that it would kill his leverage a bit.

Dumb rich people with too much time on their hands.

Wearing turtlenecks at two-a-days is gonna be a BITCH for him this season.

[Colonel Angus]

I didn't think it was possible for me to love Sam Shields more than I already did. I was wrong.

[Realist]

I hope he plans on spending his career there..

[MvP]

Not the most "Packers people" move he could have made but if this means that he is loyal to the team and if he continues to play well, then this is fine by me.

Thats a badass tatt. How can you not love Sam Shields for getting it. I'm surprised more NFL Superbowl winners don't do the same sort of thing.

[SHOGUN]

It looks really cool, but I question the decision making process.

lol @ this.

I'm sure a tat of a Super Bowl ring will really lead a GM to decide not to sign a stud corner.

Good ol' Yahoo sports knee jerk reaction.

I don't see why it's not a good idea. A Superbowl championship is something that'll stick with you, and something you should always remain proud of. It's something most people don't do. If a GM or coach is more concerned about the tattoo on his neck over how well he will play, guess what? That's probably not a team you wanna play for.

It's fucking retarded. You get a real ring when you win the Super Bowl. I think that is plenty enough to help you remember that you won a Super Bowl, just in case you ever forget. Why the fuck would you get a picture of it tattooed on your entire neck.

The same reason anyone gets a tattoo of anything.

Oh ok thanks for clearing that up. I forgot that neck tattoos on grown men are "cool." Maybe I'll go get the logo of my new job tattooed on my neck tomorrow.

He gone be mad in 20 years. Nigga you got the ring, the FUCK you need a picture of it on your neck for?
