Guest DWA Posted March 18, 2013 Posted March 18, 2013 (edited) I do find it funny that we totally understand it when a row of guys shows up stripped to the waist and painted blue at a football game in near-zero temperatures...and then everything an animal does has to be for a specific survival-related reason. I have come to the realization that birds do 99% of their flying for fun. I'm sure sasquatch cut loose now and again too. Edited March 18, 2013 by DWA
Guest Posted March 18, 2013 Posted March 18, 2013 I watched tonight's Oregon episode - other than the usual disappointment that the sounds they hear, we can't, I was surprised that the map showing Cottage Grove and the site of the tracks was wrong. The places were switched. Makes me wonder what else the editors and producers screw up. I sure wish they'd spent more time on the tracks. There was a lot more they could have shown. Ho hum. Can someone correct me if I'm wrong. Didn't somebody came out and claimed to have made the london tracks a couple of months ago?
Guest Posted March 18, 2013 Posted March 18, 2013 (edited) No, those were the Elbe tracks up in WA. Woo hoo! Over 1000 posts! My first star Edited March 18, 2013 by madison5716
Rockape Posted March 18, 2013 Posted March 18, 2013 I'm sorry, but trying to coin the phrase "virgin bigfoot" and attempting to be taken seriously just don't go together. And then Matt can't wrap his head around WHY a squatch would vocalize from where it might have, so he has to FIND a reason before it can pronounced real. Try this: they do because they do or want to. Not all vocalizations take place in mountainous regions and have to be because they are calling another squatch. They just do things we don't understand. Agreed. MM just wants to show what an expert he is, even when it makes him look foolish. Case in point the "BF only makes yells from high points", "BF doesn't bother cows because they know cows are humans food", etc, etc.

Guest blackbriar Posted March 18, 2013 Posted March 18, 2013 It fails in its basic principle of actually "finding bigfoot" but its a superb show, the team are all likeable (I know, even Matt) and the places they go squatchin' are all beautiful, and while some of the things that the experts say i.e. the coyote pups fact, are just insane, I still love the show, very formulaic and too much annoying music when they are meant to be listening but it's still great. On this episode of finding bigfoot! Love the opening line
Guest Posted March 20, 2013 Posted March 20, 2013 The best part of this show is that it has convinced my kids that bigfoot is real. They also believe Matt & Bobo are real. Funny how that works.
Guest DWA Posted March 20, 2013 Posted March 20, 2013 ^^^Well it bears its ultimate fruit when your kids go, it's real, dammit; go for advanced degrees in relevant subjects; get funding for a year in the field; and the old paradigm comes tumbling down. (Or else they circulate the petition signed by 20 million taxpayers to fund research.) There are substantial negatives. But that's a big bennie.
dmaker Posted March 21, 2013 Posted March 21, 2013 This is priceless. Jeff Probst arguing with Bobo about the PGF. http://bigfootevidence.blogspot.ca/2013/03/watch-this-jeff-probsts-heated-debate.html#moretop
Rockape Posted March 21, 2013 Posted March 21, 2013 Thanks for the link Dmaker. Interesting. Shows how some (both Ranae and Probst) are closed minded to anything as they will comment on how the PGF couldn't possibly be real, but will not even look at Bill Munns extensive report. Also love how Ranae says if it's real, replicate it. Well Ranae, isn't that what you guys are supposed to be doing, trying to replicate the filming of a Sasquatch? And, which is one of the reasons I think the PGF is real, if it's just someone in a suit, why can't someone replicate it?
Guest Posted March 21, 2013 Posted March 21, 2013 Or BoBo's brilliant rave in the woods. Have a rave, they will come, because that is well known Bigfoot behavior. That wasn't their stupidest idea in my opinion, setting off the fireworks show in the woods was. Made me shudder, that did. The show is heavy on the confirmation bias and does more to harm the Bigfoot enthusiast than help it, but that aside I think it's better to treat it as a comedy than anything else.
Guest Posted March 21, 2013 Posted March 21, 2013 Matt Moneymaker gets crazier in every episode... in the last episode, when he doubted the guy's story initially because it didnt seem like a good place, acoustically, to vocalize. What? Really? How did Moneymaker figure out whether or not it was a good place? He made a vocalization. Why wouldnt an animal do the same thing? And if a vocal animal had something to say, even if just "I'm here", why would it wait to say what it had to say until it found a more satisfying place? What if there was another individual close by? Moneymaker strikes me as Squatch happy in the most ridiculous situations, and skeptic in equally ridiculous situations. The "twins" fiasco in an earlier episode was more than laughable.
WV FOOTER Posted March 21, 2013 Posted March 21, 2013 I Agree FT. You are so right. MM is out there,.... Somewhere....
Guest Posted March 22, 2013 Posted March 22, 2013 They have to make it interesting or fun to watch. Would anyone watch if they sit quietly in dark silence?
Guest Posted March 22, 2013 Posted March 22, 2013 They have to make it interesting or fun to watch. Would anyone watch if they sit quietly in dark silence? Kind of like how criminal dramas (like CSI, for example) have little in bearing with the way the criminal justice operates in real life?
