Remember those really nice Super Bowl rings that the Giants were supposed to get for winning the big game?  Well it looks like theres going to be a little bit of a delay in them receiving the rings.

Police say they have no suspects. But Shutdown Corner is a friend to law enforcement, so I'm going to throw some theories ...

Giants Super Bowl rings stolen in daring heist

This is very suspicious: apparently a Massachusetts jewelry maker that was crafting the Giants’ Super Bowl rings — a scandal in itself — was robbed of the rings and other merchandise totaling $2 million over the weekend.
