Eli Manning is a terrific quarterback. There’s no one who can deny that. But Eli Manning is also kind of a goofy dude, and we mean that in the nicest way possible.

So it was only a matter of time that the Eli photo to end all Eli photos would become an Internet sensation before too long.

The photo below popped up earlier this week, when someone snapped a quick pic of the Giants quarterback snapping some pics of his own while surveying the damage done by Hurricane Sandy.

Naturally, Deadspin was all over the Manning photo, and before too long, the sports site was calling on its readers to do a little Photoshop work. Deadspin asked readers to send in photos of Manning taking photos of other things, with the help of a little Photoshop magic.

Here are some of them.

Quote of the Day

“Alabama, gosh, they look like they could beat a couple of those NFL teams that I’ve watched on Sundays. I think a lot of the oddsmakers out there, that usually know what’s going on, I’d guess Alabama would be favored by a little bit.”
–Steve Spurrier thinks Alabama is a good football team
