In case you have been living under a rock for the last six years, I will first briefly explain what the television show Ghost Hunters is. Ghost Hunters is a paranormal reality television series that follows Jason Hawes, Grant Wilson, and their TAPS crew as they investigate claims of the paranormal. They have produced some very compelling visual and audio evidence in support of the paranormal. Highlights of which can be seen here:

The crew also makes a habit out of trying to debunk paranormal activity by looking for alternate explanations. The TAPS crew has changed several times over the years, and as when anyone is fired from a job the end result usually leaves a bad taste in the mouth of the now former employee.

On November of 2009 former Ghost Hunter cast member Donna LaCroix appeared on a radio program entitled Ghost Divas where she made claims that the Ghost Hunters organization (TAPS) was comparable to a cult. She also suspected that the producers may have staged evidence and that she was often “directed to act” during the filming of the investigation. Highlights from that interview can be viewed here:

What I will be doing is examining LaCroix claims and other claims that legitimately call into question the integrity of this beloved show. I will evaluate claims on both sides of this issue. I will often speak in defense of the Ghost Hunters’ crew, not because I am biased, but to simply be fair as they are the ones under attack. My defense, though, may not hold up till the end. We shall see.

It is first important to note that Donna LaCroix is a disgruntled former employee of TAPS. In the same interview that she claims that the crew fakes evidence she complains of her low pay rate, being mistreated, being depressed, and being almost bankrupt. She blames all of this on her former employer. No one can blame her for being bitter. Getting fired from TAPS is the paranormal community equivalent to being in Metallica and then being kicked out right before they hit it big.

    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre. 
    • Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.
