Their life (finances and/or health) deteriorates where they need to sell the ring for the money.

I don't have a problem with someone selling the ring, but it does suck if they're in a situation that selling it is a need. IMO, this is the only reason to feel bad about someone selling anything of sentimental value.

I care. Selling that ring is an insult to everything and everyone connected to the Buckeyes.

Wild overreaction.

It is a break with the traditions that surround the game.

The break from a tradition of a championship game that has changed it's face no fewer than three times in the last ten years? Some tradition.

It also dishonors the ring and all the others who wear it proudly and what it symbolizes.

Those who wear their championship rings proudly still do so. Without being dishonored by a former teammates need to sell theirs.

I don't find it that bad that someone wants to sell the ring. It's his ring, he can sell it, if he so chooses.

The thing that I find a little disturbing is that someone will probably buy it. I just don't understand why someone would want to have a ring that he didn't win. Or a trophy. Who goes around buying trophies?

"Hey, neighbor! Check out my Heisman Trophy!"
"How'd you get a Heisman Trophy?"
"I bought it off of that Clausen guy at Notre Dame. He had, like, six of them."
"What are you going to do with it?"
"I'm going to show it off to everyone, to show how cool I am."
(To further illustrate his coolness, he shows his neighbor his version of "Achy Breaky Heart.")

The only time that I can think of that someone should have a trophy earned by someone else, is when that someone else was his father/brother/friend/etc.

I see what you mean, but don't you think a ring or a trophy would look sweet in your Buckeye room? It would be a nice piece of memorabilia to have.
