New York Giants defensive tackle Shaun Rogers told police that he had $440,000 worth of jewelry stolen last weekend while he was staying at a hotel in Miami Beach.




According to a Miami Beach Police report, Rogers told police he had the jewelry taken from his room safe Monday at the Fontainebleau hotel.


Rogers, 34, told police that he and two friends met a woman at Club Liv and that the group and the woman returned to Rogers' hotel room around 7 a.m. Rogers told police that he put his valuables in the room safe but when he woke up around 12:30 p.m., his friends were still in the room but the woman they met from the club was gone.



...what a moron. Serves him right.

Club Liv lol, that's where the Mavs partied.

In all honesty though, Jewelry is a good investment if you want your money to hold it's value and not have it all in bank accounts. Sucks it got stolen though, he should be more careful. You probably shouldn't bring that to a hotel.

is there anything that screams louder "Look at ME" then gaudy jewelry I don't know what it is.

It seems that the in most (not all) cases where a player is addcitied to bling, he ends up broke soon after his pro career is over.
I'll be curious--in a morbid sort of way--to see where Rodgers is in about 10 years.
Hopefully he'll get his head right.

Some of that stuff looks gawdawful gaudy, but if you bought it more than a few years ago, the gold sure would have appreciated a bit.

Reminds me of a local programmer during the silicon bubble: The stock in the company he worked for turned out to be useless paper, but the Lambroghini he got turned out to gain value real nicely.

This is why a lot of athletes go broke after they retire. Poor judgement off the field. Why the hell does he carry that much jewelry in the first place. Dumb guy

There is no need to even have that much $ in jewelry, much less travel with it. If it isn't a bra laced with diamonds on a Victoria Secret model, I don't even want to see it

More jewelry than I'd buy in 10 lifetimes.
