I don't think she's a douche--and I completely support the decision to not cast this guy who walked across the country. His tape sucked, and even his youtube videos were boring. If you find him boring in 20 second clips, there's no way he could make for an exciting contestant. Not to mention this would start a chain reaction of more desperate super-fans pulling stunts to get on the show. In most cases it's not her who makes the lousy recruit decisions, but rather her casting associates--most of them are 22-30 years old and would rather walk the streets/bars of LA all day and night to find contestants than sit in their office and do their job the conventional way. The queen of these decisions: Erika Shay. Responsible for recruiting the most players they've seen. She's best friends with Parvati and Jessica from Fiji---no wonder those two got cast. Her decisions have given us the gold that is Jessica DeBen and Carolina Eastwood. UNFORGIVABLE.
