randbobble.jpgIf another round of midweek, non-televised afternoon Twins office baseball isn’t enough for you — updated ground rules in just a minute — please do enjoy a feature we found whereby you can create your own bobblehead. Warning: If you use a ridiculous picture of you on your honeymoon wearing light-up shades, there is a 75 percent chance you’ll look like Chris Sabo. In any event, when you create the bobblehead on the page, it actually bobbles. This here is just a static image; we encourage you to complete the bobblehead journey and send us, via e-mail, the resulting image. Maybe we’ll put together a little gallery later today. One can’t tell. (Also on that link is the personalized message feature that is hours of fun). OK, the ground rules for today’s office baseball:

1) If Delmon Young is batting, and you’re following the game via some sort of livetracker, and “Pitch 1″ is “in play” with “out(s) recorded,” laugh ironically at this commercial and forward it to two friends.

2) Get the defibrillator ready for your coworkers: Joe Mauer is playing a day game after a night game.

3) If Carlos Gomez gets on base, speak in nothing but onomatopoeia to your boss until the inning is over.

4) If the Twins win and move above .500, tell six random people, “I never gave up on them.”
