    I just saw yet another commercial for "Fatheads", big lifesize cutouts of football players to put on your wall.

    WTF???

    Paper dolls for guys?

    Who would buy these?

    Excuse me but if I saw those on someones wall I would laugh out loud.

    Wonder of these two could be a poster child for the Sleep Number Bed?

    I think it's a genius business. Probably all drop shipped directly from a printer in the midwest, have a small design team to touch up the photos (or sub that out) and a small team of licensing people (or have the lawyer do that) and a marketing group to manage the ads (or sub that out). For the prices I'll be the margins are substantial, and I think many people would have them for rec rooms and dens.

    I bet if they made big Ferrari shields people on here would buy them for garages. I know I would.

    I don't have a poster, but I did save a bunch of money on my cigar bill last month.

    Adults buy them for their kids, if not their garages.

    They should make a Schumi "FatHead." I'd buy that.

    Pretty cool for kids- better than a poster of your favorite player on your wall.
