I just think he looks cute. :p A big brown hairy pea-brain walking around trying to make an honest living whilst being hunted by paparatzi. I bet he doesnt even get paid for his pictures.

I hate the whole 'I bet ya couldnt fake that!' argument. Its a rather big assumption. Also its somewhat of an insult to holywood special effects guys eh? :p

For pretty much the same reason, I suppose, that all the UFO photos are so blurred, grainy and out-of-focus.

Y'know, the thought just occured to me that maybe those videos and photos are perfectly fine; maybe it's the UFOs and Bigfoots (feet?) that are grainy, jumpy, and out-of-focus.

I think you just hit the preverbal nail right ton the head!
 
One thing I did appreciate about the way "A Current Affair" presented the bigfoot segment was that the host came on and said something to the effect of "other shows might keep stringing you along until the end of the show before showing the footage, we won't do that." True enough, they showed it right in the middle of the show, which means I didn't have to sit through 25 minutes of pointless crap to see another 5 minutes of slightly amusing crap. I only had to sit though about 10 minutes of pointless crap, which means that "A Current Affair" helped to hold down my steady diet of crap TV by a few minutes.

See? There's always a light at the end of the tunnel just before you get hit by the train.

Well what the duce do you expect? TV is just about selling automobiles and soap flakes. Anyone who says otherwise is either a car dealer or a soap manufacturer.

I just caught the National Geographic Bigfoot piece. I wasn’t all that impressed with it. Although I think there are a number of questions regarding the Patterson film they never really mentioned the one thing that always made the story seem a little fishy.

On some Bigfoot exposé and I forget which one they mentioned how close Patterson had to be to take those pictures, no more than a few dozen yards. If so it would seem unlikely the animal would allow a couple of mounted humans to blunder close, one falloff of his horse, recover and stand up, grab a camera. After all of this the thing walks obliquely across the scene? How incredibly lucky were these two bozos to find a Bigfoot on the very morning that they set out to film one?
 
Man that bigfoot just reminds me of something out of classic Star Trek. Although his legs are massive. Must have been some really tall guy in that costume.

That would be the 'Mugatoo' and they were white.

Don’t know; was it that tall? Patterson never really measured the height of the creature. Someone dragged a yardstick to the site in the early 1970s and they determined the figure was over seven feet tall but I’m not sure they were able to determine exactly where Patterson was (he was moving) and where the creature was (which was also moving.)

The Outdoor Life Channel seems to have a Bigfoot show about once a month. They always set up the 'night vision' cameras to catch a photo. It's always amazing how perfectly clear the deer, racoons, and skunks are, but there is always that out-of-focus, shadowy something at the end.:D

It's not very skeptical of me, but it seems that all these pictures on the web of 'bigfoot hunters' are full of rednecks or otherwise unemployed-looking people.
 
I think Professor Farnswoth put it best:

Sal: Yeah. Have yous ever seens Bigfeet?

Park: Technically no. But I do see him each night in my dreams and each day in the silent faces of hairy children.

[Farnsworth stands up and shakes his fist.]

Farnsworth (shouting): Bunk! Bunk I say! Bring me a bag full of Bigfoot's droppings or shut up!

Park [holding up a bag]: I have the droppings of someone who saw Bigfoot.

Farnsworth: Shut up!

So DougH, you really believe someone could wade through 4 feet of water along a riverbank which is most likely muddy and debris filled while wearing stilts and a fur covered monkey suit?
Talk about denial! Doug, we all know you are absolutely convinced this is a hoax and Bigfoot can't, doesn't, and never did exist, so why are you hanging around? You just like to stir up trouble I think.
Looks like they got me pegged over at the Bigfoot believers blog:

Scroll to the bottom for the good stuff. And here I thought I was winning the good fight. Feel free to weigh in over there I feel a little outnumbered!
 
There ya go duggie. Can't leave a JREF fan out there alone in at the front lines.
 
Thanks DavoMan, I especially liked the the way you deliberately misspelled amateur like they do on the really cheap porno sites. That should help you fit right in. It was deliberate, right?
(Uncomfortable note to self: how come you know they always misspell amateur at cheap porno sites?)


And sometimes you really do achieve small victories:

"I'd like to hear what you think I'm losing by choosing to sit in the Believers section. (Yes, it's a choice for me because I really don't know either way)"

In amongst the
"There is proof of the existence of sasquatch's in one single book alone: [Big Footprints, by Dr. Grover S. Krantz].
It states several complete and obvious facts...definitive proof why many different footprints could not have been faked. And no one, can argue those facts with any reasons....without sounding like a totally desperate and grasping incompetent bigmouthed uneducated ass.


OK, I may be all of those things around women, but around bigfoot I am Mr. Suave!
 
Yeah tell me about it. That line about that book proving bigfoots existence -heh!

Actually I mispelled amateur by accident. I never actually noticed that I've been spelling it wrong all this time! :p

But what I said about the camera exadurating distance and the guy having a much better view is really important in my opinion.

He had a very very good view of Mr B. Foot, yet he is all like 'All I saw was a figure'.
 
Sorry about dredging this up again

This comic struck me as funnier than it should have today because I'd recently read this thread.

When woos say things like this about skeptics you all get your panties in a bunch. When you say it, it's supposed to be humor.

Pray tell just what an "unemployed looking" person looks like, and what's wrong with being unemployed? The implication is . . .?
Oh, wait, I know: all BF hunters/investigators/'beleivers' are dorky looking unemployed rednecks.

Of course.
