The Whiteside Saga

So here is the tale of Eli Whiteside that I created. I had to attached it through pictures since the copy and paste didn't quite work out. I've heard things around here about the story of Eli Whiteside, because despite his overall mediocrity, his surname is quite fascinating to some of us (me included). This is what happens when you are bored and buzzed on a Saturday night. Enjoy and be sure to answer the poll.

Does anyone see the dry humor in this?

Maybe I just have a weird sense of humor.

I liked it quite a bit actually.

That said, my type of humor derives from being dry and awkward at all times.

Yes.

However, it is better than all rosterbation, all the time. Overall I liked it.

I have never understood the Whiteside meme, and now I despair that I ever will.

But I am eager to learn what adventures await Messrs Whiteside and Teagarden.

This is what inspired the story.

With this comment.

It may contain spoilers to come.

That damned Blackburn

As a Giants fan, I think it’s awesome that you would honor our backup catcher with such entertaining randomness. Please continue.
