Bigfoot revealed OR a cop gets fired

[CameronBornAndBred]

This is an interesting story I've been following for a little while now. Many of you probably have seen mainstream media picking up on it a bit, but the story is two hunters in Georgia claimed to have a body of a Sasquatch. The problem is, they have already been proven to be pretty sketchy characters, and even in the process of this event they have been proven to stage what has been shown. (They said in a video they showed that some "scientist" checked out the body, and the guy turned out to be their uncle or something (http://www.smh.com.au/news/world/doubt-thrown-on-bigfoot-discovery/2008/08/15/1218307173016.html)).
Friday the 15th, they are going to have a press conference in Palo Alto revealing photos and DNA evidence. (But not the actual body). I'm a big bigfoot fan, and I would LOVE if they proved it's existence. I would rather it be someone other than these goofballs (http://www.searchingforbigfoot.com/) to do it, however.
Anyways, I found this tonite. It's a comparison of one of their photos of poor dead Harry in his freezer, and a known Bigfoot costume. Very interesting analysis. (http://www.wherelightmeetsdark.com/index.php?module=wiki&page=GeorgiaRickmattBigfoot)

Oh yeah, the cop statement. One of the guys involved is a police officer. He better have the real deal, because there aren't too many professions that put as high value on honesty and character as law enforcement.

This is a joke, right? You do realize that police in most of small town America (i.e. most of America) are lucky to be high school grads? Not that this diminishes their honesty or character...but a lot of them become a cop because they want to feel important. I wouldn't trust anything these guys say really -- its not like they have much to lose. And this is coming from someone that respects authority, I'm not some TNTdevil or anything.

Let me rephrase, hopefully without offending anyone. Perceived value on honesty and character.

P.S. Don't pick on the cop, I'm just here for the big furry guy.
I mean the popsicle in a suit.

Nothing but little boys and girls on a state-sponsored power trip. Every last one of them.

There's a youtube video out there of a cop's dashboard cam supposedly catching footage of the famous chupacabra. You decide:

So, what do you think?

My favorite is the quote at about :50 in the video: "Some believe that...could be the legendary goat-sucker himself..." I cracked up at that.

And here's fox's story about the "montauk monster":

My guess is it's a big PR stunt for the "Messin' with Sasquatch" advertising campaign.

Wow, good call. For some reason I didn't even think of it as a "viral" marketing campaign. I'm sure it is for something.

Messed with him to death. That Montauk monster thing is looking like a viral campaign for something. Lord knows what people are trying to sell with dead cryptoids.

I think the monster thing just happened to be a decaying animal that someone snapped a pic of. Whatever company that would have been using it has already passed up their chance to get coverage.

Oh, that Bigfoot. I thought you meant Bigfoot Barleywine style ale by the Sierra Nevada Brewing Company:o Never mind.

There's way too many lossy artifacts for this photo to be even considered this photo as evidence. When are conspiracy theorists going to learn that raw or jp2 is the only way to submit evidence?

[CameronBornAndBred]

It's a proven hoax (http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,406101,00.html).
I wonder how this affects the cop. Besides the lawsuits he's likely to face, I wonder if he actually keeps his job. I'm not sure they can legally fire him, but I bet he's not too popular with his fellow cops.

Yeah...lol. Your start your own with one of those costumes. I thought it was funny, too, that they sent the press release to FOX news.

I am going to start my own hoax that involves 270 cans of SPAM, 55 bottles of beet juice, 14 pounds of cooked pasta, an axe, and three live rabbits.
