As revealed on FB X will introduce a new Bobblehead this year as a give away. I have a pretty good idea who the silhouette is. But go check out FB for yourself.

Thanks. I don't do Facebook, but I suspect that we agree on who the bobble will be based on that silhouette.

At first I was like, how the f would someone be able to figure out a sports bobble head by its silhouette? But yup, know exactly who it's going to be.

That narrows it down, there are only 15 Xavier basketball facebook pages.

Why do you make us look Muskie, just post the damn link you lazy fuck!

Sr Rose Ann Fleming?

What a boring bobblehead. Good for her, but she won't look good in my collection. In fact, it will look a little weird to have a grey haired nun in my collection of plastic dolls. I would rather have Thad Matta, Pete Gillen or Skip Prosser....

Just sayin...

I was on my phone and I was heading for bed. Sorry. I'll post the link next time.

I agree. I'm not sure Sr. Rose needed to be immortalized in a Bobble... but you can't deny what an influence she's had on the university.

I will just say i will not be trying to leave work three hours early for this one like I was the Chris Mack bobble head, nor will i get upset when some one schedules a 4pm meeting and I make my brother double dip into a pallet and take one for me since I am running late when no one is looking. Not wowed in one bit.

I would rather have a XU95 bobble head

If the ears were a little bigger, it could be Barack Obama. But as it is, it most assuredly is Sr. Rose.

could also pass for Ellen DeGeneres but that wouldn't make any sense

I'm sure I'm missing something here because it looks like a bunch of grown men griping that the next addition to their doll collection won't be cool, or that they wait in line three hours like they did for the last One Direction concert, I mean doll.

No you got it perfectly. My post was written knowing how ridiculous it is to even have a doll collection at 41 years old.

It is nearly as ridiculous to have a poodle for a dog....no homo.

There is a big difference between the U Station thing and this one. I have some bobbleheads. I get it, and nobody is really complaining or calling this a valuable life lesson. It's just a little funny. The U Station thing is scarier, because those are tomorrow's employees who actually believe that U Station is real life.

Why would Xavier produce a life-size Cronin bobblehead? Are they going to do a villains series?

Would that be awesome or what? Never happen though because someone would be sure to sue.

Can't be the Gnome; there's no silhouette of a pointy hat or beard.

Perhaps this is the beginning of a series of bobbleheads including Andy Mac, Fr. Graham, Mike Bobinski and others who brought X to where it is today.

Doubt it. It is more likely the beginning of the series of bobbleheads for people writing books.

Many of the other bobbleheads were developed to promote athletes such as David West, Tu Holloway, or Justin Doellman. We have had others like Chris Mack and James Posey that came about after their playing career was over. But it seems more likely they will have these dolls for people they want to gain media attention.

Proceeds of the book go to Sr. Rose's foundation, so it is all for a good cause.
