I wonder if the design of the ring was leaked? Of all the ones I've seen so far, this one by far looks the most legit. This popped up as an advertisement on my facebook tonight. It doesn't look that bad. I was hoping they would go over-the-top gaudy with the diamonds. I do like the return of the king line.

No idea where and where the chiefs kingdom became a thing. It’s my irrational hatred, and makes no sense to me. Lol.
I mean, yeah, if we were the Kansas City Knights it would make sense.
I think it was just a different way to say Chiefs Nation. Every team has "team nation". So, the chiefs thought they'd be different. I'm more used to it now. [Reply]

Lots of rings have the final score on them. Not out of the realm of possibility.

Chiefs Kingdom (I didn't like it at first either) is a "thing" because they're doing what they can to deflect attention away from terminology that some would consider insensitive like the fanbase being called the tribe or nation.

That was at least 20 years before most of the players on the team were born. **** that.
Every team that has ever won more than one Super Bowl denotes past Super Bowl wins on their rings. Ours will be no different. [Reply]
Like I said before, I hope this isn't the final design. I want this thing to be over the top gaudy with white diamonds, rubies, and yellow diamonds. It needs to make a statement. Hopefully Clark doesn't go cheap on it. [Reply]

Pretty sure it was said somewhere that they were looking to include the 69 team in the design and celebration. [Reply]
