I have a bobblehead wall. I am not proud of this, but I cannot lie to you any more than I can lie to myself: I am a 41-year-old man with a bobblehead wall. The wall, and the collection it holds, came about as an accident. I never really cared much about bobbleheads, and certainly never had any as a kid. It's forgotten now, but bobbleheads were considered sort of lame when I was a kid, hacky, dopey toys that your grandparents might have played with, sort of the sports equivalent of a hula hoop or a pet rock. When I was running Deadspin, Icehouse beer randomly sent me a bobblehead with my own head on it, based on a photo they'd found online of me. (
