Hi everyone. A comment was left on a topic so I thought I would explain why I have not posted lately. Many of you know I live in southern Alberta. I live in one of the areas hardest hit by the recent flooding and I was forced to evacuate. I tried to stick it out but all of a sudden the water level rose rapidly. The condo complex I live in started to flood and the water was knee deep. I threw my dog on my shoulder and left with the clothes on my back. We made it out just in time and the water had reached just below the windows on the car. I'm not allowed to return home until officials declare it safe to do so. Right now there are things far more important. Thanks for understanding
Rick Dyer is a confusing person, I think most can agree with that. Dyer says he loves attention from anyone, including the "haters". He is a self admitted attention whore. Those are his words, not mine. Ricky says he loves the blogs and videos about him, BUT he always changes his mind, then he switches it back. He does this back and forth with everything. I'll get to the point of this blog post. Not long ago I received a copyright violation notice from You Tube, and it was filed by Rick Dyer. I guess Rick likes people to talk about him, but then again he doesn't. The video in question was titled 'Rick Dyer Has A Meltdown' and it was on my channel for quite some time before Dyer decided to file a complaint. Out of all the videos I have up, he filed a complaint against this video. Maybe he didn't like the way he looked ranting and raving, who knows. Maybe he was trying to have my channel shut down, which is likely. I don't really know the reason because Dyer has never brought it up once...not one single time. I thought for sure Ricky would rub it in my face and say what a hater I am. None of that happened. Here is the notice I received from You Tube:
This seems to be a growing trend amongst people like Rick who don't like to be shown for who they really are. Rick thinks he can bully people in to submission, and if Dyer really knew me, He would understand that I don't back down from anyone, ever. Since I don't back down I decided to file a Copyright Counter Notification disputing Dyer's claim. In every video the title has Rick's name and I tag the hell out of them. I also add an acknowledgement saying the videos belong to the copyright holder(s). Furthermore, my channel is not monetized. The videos are, and always have been, for discussion purposes only. Today I received an email from You Tube:
"copyright@youtube.com

to me
Hello, In accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, we've completed processing your counter-notification regarding these video(s):

It looks like You Tube accepted my counter claim and they have removed the strike against my account. When I find the video that was taken down, I will upload it again.....with about six more videos.
The other day I was reading the comments on Rick's blog because he recently opened up the comment section. I had no idea they were closed in the first place until I read Dyer's post about it. One particular comment caught my attention. It was left by JRS, and that's all I know about this individual. This is what JRS said:
"I give you credit, Mr. Dyer. You are entertaining if nothing else. Though I do find it slightly odd that you just posted a 10 minute video and there was no information whatsoever regarding your incredible discovery. Seems like that would take center stage as opposed to a 10 minute video about haters.
In any case, I am not a hater. You may have seen my posts in a few other threads. I do not care to debate the existence of Bigfoot. I do not think he exists but I would never hate on anyone who thinks he does. With that said, you have stated that you have shot and killed a Bigfoot, have it in your possession, and there is scientific evidence. I would very much like to make a $50,000.00 wager with you, or any of your team members, that you, in fact, did not shoot and kill a Bigfoot and do not have one in your possession. As I mentioned in previous threads, I have access to a contract attorney who can draw up an agreement within a few days. I also have an active escrow account with Bank of America where we will both put up the funds. There will be no funny business on either end.
Now that you must approve comments one by one, you will surely see this. I look forward to your reply. Please respond directly to this message as I think it is only fair that this is in the open for all to see.
I look forward to your reply. Thanks. - JRS"
This seems like a very straight forward challenge to me. If I had a real, verified Bigfoot body in my possession, this would be an easy 50K. Does Rick accept the wager?
"Lets make it easy come Friday with $50,000 and you can see it 1st hand!"
Ricky appears to be dodging the bet and I don't know why. Rick loves money, so why turn down such a sure fire win? Dyer can't use the excuse of "It's the investors who control the body".
I'm sure Rick's "investors" would love to pocket $50,000 for simply providing the information outlined by JRS in his challenge to Rick. JRS doesn't even want to see the body, all he wants is verifiable proof that Ricky shot an honest to goodness Sasquatch.
This is the easiest money Ricky could ever hope to make, yet he refuses to accept the wager. I can't think of one reason why any sane person would refuse/decline/not accept this. If I was a Team Tracker member, I would be wondering why my leader would not stand up and take the challenge. That money could be put to good use helping Dallas and Wayne, or the homeless, or even get Dyer in the driver's seat of a shiny new Corvette. JRS provided a simple and easy proposition to Rick. He made it really simple. Ricky has been weighed and measured by JRS. Well done, whomever you are.
This past weekend turned out to be a whole lotta nothing and almost all of us expected that. Dyer was allegedly showing a real dead Bigfoot to some of his team members and so far only one person has spoken up. Allegedly this was a secret showing and no schedules or any verifiable information was given out in order to protect Team Tracker members. Rick always has an excuse why he can't provide any proof of anything he ever says. He is so very predictable. He says he was worried about the safety of his followers. I wonder how tight security was for this main event of hoaxery.
Frank Cali was allowed to say he saw the "body", but he only answered Rick's questions. I was disappointed that Frank was not given an opportunity to speak on his own. Maybe that nasty and alleged NDA got in the way. Maybe there was a clause in there stating any person could answer certain questions at the direction of Rick Dyer. If you didn't get a chance to listen to the ravings of a lunatic last night, I'll post Freezer Boy's show for you. The acting was right up there with pro wrestlers. I wonder if Ricky went to the Vince McMahon School of Acting. Sadly, the show is little on substance, but it's high on hate. Dyer even attacks hosts of another radio show for no reason. BIGFOOTTRACKER LLC was in chat during their program yesterday and I can only guess it was in order to gather information for Rick's bashfest. Because Steve Kulls was a guest, Freezer Boy probably thought the show was all about him. The person in chat was given every opportunity to call in and ask Steve questions but the person never called. Mr. Kulls was gracious enough to answer the questions anyway. Monster X Radio has a fine quality show that covers the entire cryptid world. They have great guests on the show as well. I have a news flash for Dyer. The Bigfoot world does not revolve around Rick Dyer, it never has. Rick needs to deflect attention away from people asking questions about the "viewing" and he needs to always be in control. Once again, Dyer is predictable and it's one of his biggest flaws (next to hoaxing). Rick promotes the hate, plain and simple. I hope Rick at least had the decency to pick up Frank in style.
Rick is losing control of his hoax. He's scrambling and he sounds like a madman. He's pounding his chest saying he has a dead Bigfoot, but the fact remains. He has not shown one shred of evidence since his tent video. The thing in the tent video could have easily been made my anyone. Rick thinks the PGF is fake, so why should anyone believe his video is authentic? All Rick does is attack any person who opposes him and/or shines a bad light on him. If Rick didn't have such a dubious past, the light might be less harsh.
If you don't want to endure Rick' ramblings, here is a short video from Steve Lane. The irony is priceless. Once again Rick has shown nothing that can be verified. One thing we do know for sure is Dyer is a verified hoaxer.
Ricky had a short radio show the other night, and during this show he selected people he would fly to Las Vegas to view the "body". Dyer also stated two news reporters would be present as well. Just last week Freezer Boy was on a fund raising drive for Dallas and Wayne to raise money in order to help the pair of Bigfooters, but now Rick is prepared to fly out a hand full of people to Vegas. Something isn't jiving here. Have a listen to the archive. Don't worry, it'll only hurt a little bit.
While I was watching the show I kept wondering how he would pull this off. I thought for sure the trip would be cancelled for one reason or another because the cost to fly so many people out would cause Dyer to lose money, not make money. Many of us knew something had to give, there is no way this will happen.
It became as clear as day when I saw a post someone had put up on Rick's blog. The post was coherent, so it wasn't Rick. It is by far, the funniest thing I have ever read on Dyer's blog and I laughed all the way to the end.....much like I did with the booklet.
Here's a snip from the post:
"Why are the ones who were on Sunday’s show the only ones going to see Hank? What about the others? In order to protect the safety and privacy of my Team Members, I will not confirm who is or is not attending during this first viewing opportunity. I will say that we are working to adjust the roster (and manage ticketing issues) if necessary due to resulting schedule complications that arose when certain individuals returned to work on Monday after presuming they could be available on such short notice."
"Will the reporters be able to print and publish stories right after they view the body? It has been the practice since the original interment of the body for any invited news organizations and their representing journalists and crew members to agree to withhold all reporting on the matter until a news embargo has been lifted. All experiences will remain completely off-the-record until journalists are released to share them."
The rest of the article follows the same lines. Anyone who goes to Las Vegas can not tell other members they went, and those who saw the body can't tell anyone what they saw. All of this is under the guise of protecting the team members. In actuality it's a way for Rick to have a new story to tell without having to prove anything to anyone. He'll simply cite NDA's. The news reporters can view the body, but they can't report on it because of a "news embargo". Really? A news embargo for a news story, that's hilarious all by itself.
What it boils to is nothing can be verified to be true or false. This is the way Ricky has played the game from the start. He tells tall tales and if you dare question him, well that's it, you're not a team player. You're branded a "hater" because you had the nerve to ask the almighty one some intelligent questions. After Friday Rick will have new material to get peoples' hopes up. He can continue to keep his fantasy world afloat and receive accolades from his adoring fans. His story and his promises are hollow, naked, and lack any substance whatsoever.
Is it possible Rick shot a Bigfoot? He called his rifle barrel a "thing". There is no dead Bigfoot.
I finally got a chance to listen to Freezer Boy's show from last and it's more the same old thing. Ricky goes on a bashing spree again, calling people "haters". I have a news flash for you folks, Dyer is the biggest hater there is. Rick did the same thing in 2008. He burned books, he called people stalkers and he picked a fight with Matt Moneymaker and the BFRO. All this was done to annoy people. He is doing the exact same thing in 2013. Ricky says he likes all the attention he's getting, but he whines and complains endlessly. He makes things up about me, and he makes things up about other people who have become more successful than him. If you watch this show from last night, you may need some medication. *This lame video is the property of the copyright holder(s). Used for discussion purposes, education, and laughing* Video may have lasting side effects such as nausea, vomiting, hysteria and eye-rolling.
Since Ricky appears to be in a bad mood, maybe I can brighten up his day. I wasn't actively looking for any videos on Freezer Boy but I stumbled across this gem. The video was uploaded in 2008 by I/E Video Productions. I decided to watch the video, and I immediately saw parallels to the 2013 Hoax Saga. A video from the past shows us the story of the present.
Let's take a trip down memory lane, shall we? For people who are new on the scene, or don't know what Rick Dyer, AKA Freezer Boy is all about, we'll start in 2008. This was the year Rick Dyer and Matt Whitton made headlines by saying they had a dead Bigfoot in a freezer.
Back then Rick didn't believe Bigfoot was real and he had no regard for those who believe Bigfoot exists. Dyer didn't care who he hurt, or how much he hurt them. All Rick cares about is himself and money.
There are many,many photos from this hoax, but these are just a few so you can see how the boys just love being the center of attention. Thankfully Steve Kulls busted this hoax wide open before Ricky had a chance to carry on with his plan to make an autopsy video. If you have not read Hall of Shame, you really should. Steve covers the 2008 hoax in depth on his page. We all know Dyer has bragged endlessly about how much money he made from the 2008 hoax. He's a conman, a liar and a thief, nothing more. You would think Dyer would take his lumps and leave for good but that wasn't the case. How unfortunate for us.
The very next year, in 2009, Rick tries the same thing. He makes wild claims of having a Bigfoot body (yes,another one) and press conferences. I guess Rick is under the impression that people have forgotten the 2008 Georgia freak show. I thought he would have at least changed his playbook a bit to "throw people off". Maybe Ricky Chuck thinks he's smarter than most "peoples". Here is an old radio show of Freezer Boy's from 2009. Have a listen. Rick keeps accusing me of lying, twisting his words or telling half truths. These are things Rick usually comes back with when he knows he's been caught lying. This show is in his own words from 2009. he didn't say these things to "piss people off". He said these things to make more money.
For some reason, Rick appears to like the month of August for such hoaxes. It's just an observation on my part. This guy has an obsession with trying to hoax people. It's not something you'd expect from a person in their 30's, that's for sure. Only two months prior to this radio show, Rick and Matt struck it rich again.
There they go again, frivolously using the word "expedition". They just happened to capture video of a live Bigfoot in the same general area they "found" a dead Bigfoot not even a year earlier. Okay, I'm going to stop laughing long enough to finish this, but it's tough. These guys reference the 2008 hoax as if it was a real event. Who are they trying to fool? I see they still have a news fetish, it's all about being super stars I suppose. Perhaps bright studio lights warm up their craniums enough to sustain them for another year until they can come up with another hoax. The guys claimed there would be clear footage of a real Bigfoot. Does that sound familiar to anybody? It reminds me of 2012-13 a wee bit. Same old story with no results. These two suck at hoaxing.
Things seem to settle down for awhile, and just when we thought he was gone for good, he pops back up in the Bigfoot community making another claim of sighting a real to goodness Bigfoot. Rick was in Florida in 2012 when he made this claim and he posted two photos of an alleged 60 that he had in his possession. There is a short article here at The Crypto Crew showing the two photos. Back then nobody believed Rick either but he pushed it for a short time until he realized nobody was buying the story. Later on Rick claimed he was hoaxed by some people he trusted. That's typical Rick Dyer style, blame other people for everything and accept no responsibility. He only takes credit for the 2008 hoax because it works to his advantage and he milks that one as often as he can. He still makes himself look like the victim though.
This brings us to the current dead Bigfoot hoax. Yes, I call it a hoax because Dyer's past history tells me it's a hoax. That's my opinion and it's not going to change. I think most, if not all of us are painfully aware of this story that should have wrapped up a long time ago. Ricky filmed what he says was a Bigfoot on Sept. 6/12 and he posts it under a false name. Before anyone knew it was Dyer, people were saying it was a hoax, but after Rick was identified as Dan Morgan, everybody agreed this was a hoax. Not much was said after that until Freezer Boy said he shot one and killed it. When he can't get the attention he seeks, Rick will just make the story more interesting to see who bites.
To date, this is the only evidence Rick has provided, a short grainy video. No other evidence has been provided. The documentary really can't be considered evidence because....well...there is none. The general consensus is the documentary was made to make fun of a bunch of hayseeds falling down in the woods. All we really have is the story of Rick Dyer. We do have the account of Musky Allen, but the veracity of his story has also been called in to question because of his past history, or his sanitized statements.
The video Rick posted to YouTube really isn't very good evidence either. This could easily have been hoaxed. We only see the alleged Bigfoot from the shoulders to the top of the head. This would cut down on the cost of costuming without a doubt. Dyer believes the PG film is a hoax, yet he expects everyone to accept his video as fact because he said so. Every time Rick is asked for more evidence, he finds a reason for not being able to produce any. Once again poor Rick Dyer is the victim. It's out of his control or it's the fault of those other people. Rick won't say who these anonymous, or possibly fictitious people are. Dyer has a problem with anonymous people but it's fine and dandy for Rick to have anonymous people doing this or that. There is always a double standard when it involves Rick Dyer. Freezer Boy also has an issue with people who use aliases. Here's a prime example of the Dyer Double Standard:
For anyone who is too young to know who Michael Knight is, he was the main character on a popular T.V. show, Knight Rider.
Ricky used the Knight Rider theme music in many, many of his videos.
What are the chances of a big Knight Rider fan rooming up with a guy named "Michael Knight"? The chances of this being a coincidence is very likely zero. This brings up another question. If Ricky has investors and doesn't need to work, why did he do roofing in Florida under a false name. Why is he constantly selling cars on eBay? The old " I love cars" doesn't fly with me. I'm starting to wonder if Dyer has any legitimate investors because his story on that has changed as well.
Dyer's past personal history isn't lollipops and rainbows either. Rick has admitted to run ins with the law before, so it's no secret. But.....it wasn't his fault, there was a misunderstanding...in every single case. Of course Rick has not provided one piece of evidence to clear his name with anyone who actually cares.
I know a few people will be upset I brought up Ricky's past. They will tell me Rick's past is not relevant. Well, I say bullshit, it's completely relevant. Every employer, every law enforcement agency and every court takes a person's past in to consideration before hiring, firing, sentencing, etc. A person's past history shows exactly how that person conducts them self. If it walk like a duck and talks like a duck, it's a damned duck. This really isn't a duck, it's more like a chicken.
A few people, including Rick says he's a changed man. Bullshit! He has not changed, not one tiny bit. He is the same manipulating, conniving liar and hoaxer he was back in 2008. Rick talks the talk, but he has yet to walk the walk.
Rick finally released some new information tonight. Freezer Boy says the "body" will be released before August 15,2013. He went as far as saying it might be in the next few days. I wonder what happened within the last week or so that would cause Rick to change his mind. He was a bit quiet during that time, so it's anyone's guess what's going on. I thought, according to Rick, things were so complex and things take time. All of a sudden "things" got fast forwarded by 2 1/2 months. Simply amazing. Maybe a meeting that took place was the reason people haven't been saying much.
This last one is a bit odd. Last night on Rick's show, Musky said he ran in to "Jack" at the airport. In this text message Musky said he was going on a road trip.
Evidently Musky didn't like his text messages being posted to various Bigfoot pages on Facebook, and he made no bones about it.
Musky has Misty's number....is that a veiled threat or intimidation tactic? One could certainly interpret it that way, especially if a person has received threats in the past. Threatening a woman isn't a very gentlemanly thing to do. In fact, threatening anyone is childish, and it's against the law. I guess some people have never heard of cyber bullying.
I don't have the exact details of the meeting between Musky and "Jack" and I didn't know Musky was still in the picture. I might get the impression we have one big happy group here. They all seem very cozy with each other.
Dyer also said the new trailer for "Hank" is complete and a new truck has been purchased to tow the trailer. He said there was little need for refrigeration because the people did something to the body. I keep asking what that something is, but I can't get a straight answer. Apparently there is a new way of keeping a corpse from rotting that most of us are not aware of.
Not only is the body being released early, Gold membership has been opened up for just a few days.
What does a person get for their hard earned dollar?
From what I can see, a person doesn't get much, if anything for their money. If Rick is releasing the "body" early, does that mean the Gold and Platinum members get to see the Bigfoot Video #2 early? The only thing of possible value is a 41 minute interview with someone. I'm hesitant to use the word 'reporter' because it doesn't sound like a professional interview to me.
A few of Dyer's new supporters suspect people will change sides and jump on the Ricky-has-a-Bigfoot bus. I can't speak for everyone, but I will not change my opinion. I think this is a long drawn out boring hoax. I do not think Rick shot a Bigfoot. If by some unfortunate twist of Karma Dyer did kill a real unknown primate, and it's verified by known and respected scientists, then I will do what I have always said I will do.
Hopefully this charade ends quickly, but I don't see it ending painlessly. Reputations are at stake and real people have spent real money.
