Even though McGruff always struck me as sort of hollow puppet figure for the man, even he could take on the artist formerly-known-as Hotfoot Teddy.

Smokey is nothing more than a tree-hugging hermit who can't even afford a shirt and has to hide behind a federal statute for protection.

This could largely be decided by forum (i.e., on the mean streets or in the sometimes harsh bosom of mother nature). But setting that aside I'm going to have to say that McGruff has it. He's probably packing heat and all Smokey has is a ranger hat and shovel. What's more, the street smarts are probably going to catch the nature loving innocence of Smokey off guard. I'm pretty sure that Raymond Chandler would agree with me.

Kirk, you're right to point out that this battle would only be decided in Mother Nature's own special way - survival of the fittest.

Let's evaluate. Smokey is a BEAR. McGruff is a dog. Smokey has a shovel. Unknown what McGruff's got. Smokey "extinguishes" his enemies (fire or otherwise). McGruff takes a bite out of his enemies.

Bear with shovel will extinguish dog with bite.

Match over.

The whole idea of Smokey the Bear is nothing more than Uncle-Sam-derived environmentalist propaganda. He's a liar too, because I can't prevent wildfires started by lightning and neither can you. McGruff will take a bite out of crime and your face. He saves kids from taking hot lead to the chest and encourages them to get off the streets and into the schools. I don't even think Smokey can talk. I'm with Kirk, no doubt the Crime Dog is packin' and Smokey's shovel isn't going to do much in a dark alley. Regardless, if a brawl were to ensue between these two, au natural, McGruff would effortlessly maul his way to the top.

Smokey CAN afford a shirt. Its just that he works out all day and there are no shirts big enough for his gunns.

I do know that Smokey the Bear was powerful enough to get Bart Simpson to leave the building, and that is saying something!

I dont care i think McGruff could because he's part police so he might have a firearm.
