LOL...That's awesome. I hope it was a "misundertsanding"..This way, there's no way the guy'll ask for the ring back.

Well, Putin had to do somthing to shore up the Russian economy. With this one act he doubled Russia's GDP for 2005.

Not bad. :p

Bob Kraft is worth hundreds of millions of dollars. He'll pony up the $15,000 to get a new ring rather than piss off Putin and screw all his Russian business interests.

The funniest thing is Rupert Murdoch's look in the photograph. It's like he's thinking "dammit! I wanted to snatch it first!" :D

I saw this earlier. Takes the cake as weirdest CNN headline of the year so far. I guess this is what you get when a former KGB agent becomes a head of state.

I love how Kraft's camp has now come out and said that the ring was meant as a gift to Putin.

I've seen those rings in person, and they are beyond obscene.
