NY Giants

The New York Giants FINALLY got their Super Bowl rings last night -- three months after winning the championship -- and they're more beautiful than we could ever have imagined.

The ring -- designed by Tiffany & Co. -- is made of white gold and COVERED in diamonds. The top of the ring alone is lined with 37 blue sapphires.

The ring (pictured above on cornerback Will Blackmon's finger) also includes the final score of Super Bowl XLVI (21-17) -- when Giants trounced the New England Patriots for the second time in four years.

The four Vince Lombardi trophies (look for the footballs) represent the team's four championships (1986, 1990, 2007 and 2011).

It's hard to put a value on something like a Super Bowl ring -- but the hardware alone is probably worth five figures. They got a ring!!!

NFL bad ass Jeremy Shockey is a horrible teammate and an even worse person ... this according to a guy who would know ... former NY Giants wide receiver Amani Toomer.

Toomer -- who played with Shockey for 6 years in NY -- CRUSHED the tight end on his Twitter page this morning ... after Jeremy said he'd be open to returning to the Giants.

As our friends at ProFootballTalk.com pointed out ... Shockey left the Giants on really bad terms in 2008 ... insisting he would NEVER play for the team again.

Now, Toomer wants to make sure Shockey's kept to his word ... tweeting, "No!! Shockey ‘I will never play4 you again!’ he yelled at jerry Reese in 08. Let him keep his word. Bad teammate, worse person."

It's unclear why Toomer has so much anger towards his former teammate.

Shockey -- who played for the Carolina Panthers last season -- has yet to respond.

10:00 AM PST -- Well, Shockey responded ... tweeting, "Yes remember when [Toomer's] ex divorced him and he urinated on a her cloths [sic] I guess he’s the good person.”

Shockey is referring to Amani's divorce ... when back in 2007, Toomer's ex-wife alleged he once peed on her clothes.

NY Giants star running back Ahmad Bradshaw has apparently developed an extra-special relationship with former "Jersey Shore" star Angelina Pivarnick ... TMZ has learned ... but the Staten Island Dump insists they're NOT officially dating.

Angelina was at Saddle Ranch in L.A. yesterday ... when we asked point blank if they were together ... and we were met with an uncomfortable silence ... followed by, "I'm not dating him ... like, no."

Pivarnick explained, "We've hung out together ... we're really close, he's a cool dude."

"I think he's a hot black ... I'm not gonna deny that. I would be lying if I told you he wasn't hot."

Angelina recently posted a photo of the two lookin' all cozy at a NY club a few weeks ago -- they look platonic to you?

We called Bradshaw's agent for comment ... so far, no response.

So, we gotta ask ...

Just when you wanted to hate the guy for winning $50,000 on a freak Super Bowl bet -- Giants fan Jona Rechnitz tells TMZ, he's donating every last cent to multiple charities ... INCLUDING one of Tom Brady's choice.

In case you didn't know, Jona -- who runs a successful real estate company in New York -- hit the JACKPOT yesterday, betting $1,000 on the Giants to score the first points in the big game with a safety. The odds were 50 to 1.

Jona tells us, he plans to donate $5,000 to Tom's charity of choice -- in the hopes Tom and the Pats will match it -- and $5,000 to the charities of choice for the Giants defensive linemen who made the safety play. Jona also wants to take Tom out for an all-expenses-paid falafel dinner.

As for the rest, Jona says he plans to divide up the balance after taxes ... and donate it to a bunch of charities benefiting the less fortunate.

Jona says he only makes one bet a year -- on the Super Bowl -- and this year, it finally paid off.

The New York Giants CELEBRATED THEIR FACES OFF on the plane ride home from the Super Bowl ... singing and dancing like crazy ... and it was all captured on tape.

Linebacker Mark Herzlich posted a video on his Twitter page ... featuring running back Andre Brown leading a chant in which he screamed, "I GOT A RING!" ... and the guys would respond, "WE GOT ONE TOO!"

Herzlich tweeted a note with the video that read, "I'd say we are pretty excited."

It's safe to say the New England Patriots flight was quite different.

Giants owner Steve Tisch confessed his Super Bowl superstition on TMZ Live today ... saying he won't remove 5-week old nail polish from his toes because he's afraid it could sink his team.

Tisch says 5 weeks ago his young daughters painted his toenails red and blue ... and his team hasn't lost a game since -- so now he's afraid to remove the polish.

Tisch adds ... he's barely washed his feet since his girls shellacked him -- and he has no plans to clean up ... at least until after Sunday.

Today's game between the New York Giants and the Minnesota Vikings had already been postponed when the collapse occurred.

Sunday morning, the NFL announced the game would be moved to Detroit and played on Monday.
