Lee Woodall of the niners got into some legal troubles last December and had to give his ring away as collateral for an $80,000 settlement. The guy got over $50k for selling it on Ebay.

the bad thing is really that you wont ever be able to replace something like that. once you sell it, youre never getting another. something these guys will probably regret later in life.

That's not as bad as Lawrence Phillips selling one of his Big 8 Championship rings to a pawn shop for $20 to "get out of town."

Former Nebraska star [running back] Lawrence Phillips was seen in Las Vegas recently pawning one of his Big Eight championship rings — reportedly for $20. “He said he was stuck in Las Vegas,” pawn shop owner Steve Gibson told the Las Vegas Review-Journal. “He said, ‘I need to get out of town.’ Gibson then sold the ring on eBay for a reported $1,700.
