i don't really understand the whole bobblehead thing. is there a reason the twins don't just order 100,000 of each one instead of limiting the supply so severely? it's not like they don't know people are going to fight and claw and hire homeless people to stand in line for them. you'd think it would be better to just flood the market and end the nonsense. i guess the twins must prefer media buzz over fan safety.

Hey, if you go to the Citizens League event on August 31 (7:30 a.m.) you'll be entered to win a full set (10) of the bobblehead dolls!
dave thought:
uhh, 7:30am is a little too early for me to be civic minded, but seeing as complete sets of 10 are selling for like $1200 on ebay, you think the citizens league would mind if i send a couple of buses full of homeless people to attend on my behalf?
