I like how his tweet was that it makes you think and wonder. Yeah, it makes you wonder how people can be so stupid.

Is it possible that that's what he meant, that it makes you wonder how people can be so stupid?  Since he didn't elaborate (as far as I can see) you can't really rule out that that's what he meant.

Yes (not that I would bet on it, but he could have meant any number of things.)

I watched part of the video and I don't believe it's a conspiracy or anything, but it is one of those things that makes you think. Coincedence? Sure, weird? Yup. True? Not so much. But hey, who knows. Wonder if that guy has considered searching for squatchs?

Does no one check stuff out on Snopes. com before they post??

Nah, just a dinosaur decifering a book of magic spells.

Snopes knocks down the chain emails and conspiracy theories that often get spread around.

Chief had his tongue firmly planted in cheek, as evidenced by his "shark attacking a helicopter" question.

Whoops! Didn't catch it haha. Never really looked into that shark photo either.

Is there a suggestion that anyone would actually consult Snopes to determine if that photo was real or fake?

backstory says it included something along the lines of 'photo of the year'.

Sure it wasn't "photoshop of the year"?

The Chief recognizes the language to be Ancient Doomlish, an obscure language spoken by only the darkest of the dark mages many years ago. Upon further reading, he concludes that it is a pretty basic spell book containing low and moderate level spells that are still common today, however, a few pages are missing...

Nice profile, but where's the fact checker on the claim that Alex Meyer was our "top prospect"? Don't most top prospect lists agree that Rendon and Goodwin are BOTH above him? Maybe they meant top pitching prospect?

Since determining the potential of prospects is subjective (at best) who needs a "fact" check?

He was  our  top pitching prospect, not top overall.

He was clearly "a top prospect" - so, I wouldn't get too would up over fact checking. It's not like he was Cutter Dykstra...
