      The Miniature Secrets of Championship Rings

      by

      As sports fans enjoy the legacy-defining moments of this month’s N.B.A. finals and Stanley Cup finals, Jason Arasheben is studying like a college student before exams.Arasheben, a celebrity jeweler whose clients include the rappers Drake and ASAP Rocky, is investigating the history of the contending teams, the connections to their cities and any other interesting facts that could be infused into an extravagantly bejeweled ring. He is also scouring his personal contacts for anyone who could facilitate a meeting with the wealthy owners of the winning franchises.“You just have to start connecting the dots,” said Arasheben, the chief executive of the Jason of Beverly Hills jewelry house near Los Angeles. “Billionaires talk to other billionaires.”In the past few years, Arasheben has established himself as a go-to jeweler for title-winning teams — carving out a corner of the market long dominated by Jostens — by creating dynamic rings that include reversible faces and detachable compartments.“He’s reimagined what the championship ring is all about,” said Eric Tosi, the chief marketing officer of the Vegas Golden Knights, who won the Stanley Cup last year.“Every team that wins a title no matter the sport is going to get a ring,” Tosi continued. “But how can you stand out? How can you do something that’s never been done before? He’s done that.”

      Micah Richards reveals he lied to CBS bosses after wild Super Bowl night out ‘like never, ever before’

      by

      MICAH RICHARDS has revealed he lied to CBS Sports bosses after a wild night out in Las Vegas earlier this month.Former Manchester City and England man Richards, 35, is a part of CBS Sports’ Champions League coverage alongside presenter Kate Abdo, Arsenal icon Thierry Henry and Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher.

      And the ex-full-back enjoyed a flying visit to Las Vegas earlier this month as he made the trip across the Atlantic with Abdo and Henry ahead of Super Bowl LVIII – which was won by the Kansas City Chiefs.
      While in the US, Richards was due to fulfil media obligations discussing both the Champions League and Super Bowl.
      But he ended up having to conduct those duties after getting in just a few hours earlier from “one of the best nights” of his life.
      Speaking to Gary Lineker on The Rest is Football, he said: “I am with [Thierry] Henry, [Kate] Abdo, the [CBS] producers, and everyone knows what Big Meeks is like. I like to get into a little bit of trouble every now and again.

      “I just thought, ‘Do I keep it professional and stay in, or do I go for a little wander?’
      “So it’s about 1am in the morning, I go for a little wander down the strip. We’re staying in the Virgin Hotels. One of my old mates is staying at the Wynn. I go there and have a few drinks.
      “It’s then 4 or 5am in the morning, and I’m thinking to myself, ‘We’ve got media at 11am. What do I do here?’ It’s only light stuff, we’re talking about the Champions League, promoting that and then the Super Bowl.
      “Then we went to a place, I’m not naming no places but wowsers. Gary, do you want me to spell it out for you? The scenery was like never, ever before.”

      Richards then went on to describe how he lied to his CBS bosses the following day to avoid getting in trouble.

      “But they don’t know I had one of the best nights of my life.
      “Everyone thought I had jet lag. It had nothing to do with jet lag, it’s because I was out until eight o’clock in the morning.

      Micah Richards stuns Thierry Henry and Kate Abdo by picking Man Utd wonderkid if Premier League had NFL-style draft

      by

      MICAH RICHARDS stunned everyone when he picked Manchester City’s rising superstar in an NFL style draft. In the midst of Super Bowl fever, Thierry Henry, Kate Abdo and Micah Richards selected their best under-20s Premier League player.

      After Richards, 35, was reminded that his initial choice, Jude Bellingham, was out of the running as he didn’t play in England, the ex-City player took his time before making an astonishing choice.
      He said: “I’m going with Mainoo, Man United.
      “Start a team like that.”
      Kobbie Mainoo, 18, made his Prem debut just before Christmas and is now established as a key first team player, with Erik ten Hag praising his “incredible” progress.

      He proved absolutely vital in United’s match against Wolves, where he scored a stunning goal in the 97th minute to secure a 4-3 victory.
      The academy graduate’s talent has even prompted club legend Dimitar Berbatov to compare him to the iconic midfielder Paul Scholes.
      But it was still a bombshell to hear that Richard’s, a former City player, would pick someone from his club’s biggest rivals.
      He wasn’t the only one casting aside his loyalties – United fan Abdo selected a City star herself.

      She said: “Oh yeah, that’s a nice shout, Micah from Man City! Micah Hamilton.”

      He’s only made two prem appearances, but did get a goal and an assist on his Champions League start when City beat Red Star Belgrade 3-2 in Serbia.
      Thierry Henry’s answer was equally unexpected, although unlike the other two he stuck firmly to his loyalties.
      He said: “I would trust my youth team.
      “Sorry, that is an option also.
      “Why are you upset? Why do you have an academy for?”
      Henry’s experience as a manager shone through with his wise choice.
      The pundit previously was Monaco and Montreal Impact boss and also had a spell as Roberto Martinez’s assistant for Belgium and now coaches France’s Under-21’s. More

      The American also moved with her beau when he signed for Forest this past summer transfer window.
      And the former NFL cheerleader continually supports him from the stands, so much so that she is even willing to put her own safety at risk.
      She recently attended a match where she had a front-row seat close to the action.
      But all the “glitz and glamour” went out the window after Gonzalo Montiel fired a powerful shot that missed the target but smacked her in the face leading to a broken nose.

      Ashley told talkSPORT: I’ve got a broken nose right now because I went to a game and got hit in the nose.
      “It happened during the warm up. It was Montiel. I don’t think it’s glitz and glamour.”
      Ashley is a former NFL cheerleader who showed off her dancing skills at Super Bowl LII.
      She also gained her Masters degree in business management from Harvard University.

      The mother of two met Turner in the US during his time at the MLS and they moved across the pond when she was eight months pregnant.

      “This league is just developed in people’s blood and it’s a beautiful thing.
      “The pressure for the players and their families is something I don’t think you can prepare for.
      “You have to just go through the journey and experience it and that’s where you really learn the ins and outs of everything.
      “We moved over to Arsenal when I was eight months pregnant and I had to move before Matt finished up his season. I came to the country without a place to live.
      “It’s definitely different but I wouldn’t trade it for the world because I feel like Matt and I have grown closer for this experience.
      “It doesn’t make things easier not being able to have your family next door to call on and we’re grateful we have a very supportive family but that was definitely difficult.”
