Before you shoot down this idea, know that it came to me in a dream. This came to me in an honest-to-goodness real nighttime dream. In my dream...I was a blogger. A card blogger. Tough to believe, I know. A card blogger who gained internet fame, credibility, and notoriety by creating a very unique Frankenset.
The Male Pattern Baldness Frankenset.
This is what I dream about. This is the best that my subconscious can come up with. It's so sad.
So, if I decided to put this together, what balding, thinning, aging gentlemen would I put in it? How about a Hall-of-Famer?

What about tennis? There hasn't been anyone to go bald from that sport has there?
Oh yeah.
I'm beginning to think that making this set is a bad idea. A very bad idea.
So it's a no-go. My better judgment says to stay as far away from these chrome domes as I can. What is the farthest thing possible away from these guys?

I think that should be a safe pick.
What say you --
did I miss any notorious baldness sufferers?
