Lawrence Taylor was told his Super Bowl ring was bought by Charlie Sheen

By Chris Chase

Lawrence Taylor's Super Bowl ring will hardly know it switched owners.

According to Jay Glazer, the Hall of Fame linebacker was told that a fellow aficionado of all things illicit, Charlie Sheen, was the buyer of his Super Bowl XXV ring that recently sold for more than $230,000 at auction. It's not known whether Taylor's information is accurate but, man, we hope it is.

Taylor's agent, Mark Lepster, confirmed to Glazer that LT was told Sheen bought the ring. They are still trying to confirm this poetic purchase. It's like Phil Spector buying O.J.'s Heisman.

The actor has an extensive sports memorabilia collection that includes Babe Ruth's 1927 World Series ring and the contract that sold the baseball great from the Boston Red Sox to the New York Yankees. He also owned the infamous Bill Buckner ball.

Taylor's son, TJ, put the ring up for auction unbeknownst to his father. The troubled former star said he had no problem with the decision.

Mitt and his jeans ....

An open letter to Mrs. Romney. She sent me an email, but that address will not receive replies, so I am posting it on my blog. Odd that she can comment but will take no responses, I'll bet she takes donations.

Why don't you buy him a nice suit, white shirt and appropriate necktie, and talk to him about "perception." Ask him how people "perceive" him in his torn jeans and open neck dress shirt. Does his Doctor dress that way? Does his Minister dress that way? Who told him the American people want a candidate in blue jeans and a shirt. Two things that are very important to me in a candidate, PERCEPTION and CHARISMA. If you remember, Obama got elected on his charisma, and he is not in a suit at appropriate times. I, for one, will not vote for a candidate who has so little respect for me that he cannot appear in appropriate attire. Would he sit in the Oval Office in jeans, would he take the oath of office in jeans. I'll bet he doesn't go to The Temple in jeans. NO, so why campaign in them. I personally think that it is almost an insult to his audience. If anyone, you should have some influence over him.
