This Charlie Brown Bobblehead is Steroid Free!

With the recent U.S. Gov't investigation into steroid use in baseball, this new(?) bobblehead collector's comments are both amusing and ironic... :)

One of this year's promotions at SBC Park will be the Charlie Brown Bobblehead Doll.

None of the previous baseball bobbleheads ever really appealed to me. Honestly, most of them are creepy with their wobbly oversized heads and dead eyes.

But the one of Charlie Brown looks cool. He's wearing the comic-strip-style cap and a Giants jersey. To me, he is the sport's perfect representative.

He's hardworking and steroid-free. He gives everything to the game he loves even though he can't play it well enough to win.

If I could, I'd get it, but the promotion is only for the first 10,000 kids (14 and under) and it just seems wrong to adopt solely for the purpose of obtaining a collectible.
