Could you guys jump out of a plane?
I have. It's awesome. But I will admit the very first one is quite terrifying for the first few seconds.

I've never jumped out of a civilian plane, and got to free fall. I would like to try that some day. Jumping out of a C-17 where your rip is tied off doesn't take very long to deploy.

What if he showed up in Dallas? I will take your response off the air thanks!
Sure. Then I get the added enjoyment of watching him burn, and you guys right along with him.

And you will take my answer right here, Mr.

For those not seeing Fox pregame... Gronk did a skydive (tandem of course) and it looked like they almost had to push him out. :lol
No. I’ve flown twice. Once to my destination, argued with my wife to let me rent a car and drive back, then flew back home.

Not good with flying, definitely not okay with falling out of the sky from one of those death traps.

I think generally if he has a QB he'll do well enough but if he goes somewhere that doesn't have at least a decent QB it'll be just as ugly as this year.

I don't want him in Dallas but I think he'd do ok here.

Good QB and not picking the talent would do him a ton of good. Guy can't pick players for shit.

Twenty or so years ago, I occasionally played golf in this little town an hour or so south of Oklahoma City, and someone ran a skydiving business there. You'd see this little prop plane go way up, almost directly above us, and drop the people out.

A year or two later, I saw in the news where someone had died there doing that because his chute hadn't opened.

That probably didn't help my feelings on the matter. /CSB

Back on topic, these early games are actually decent for once. I'd say Jax has a fair chance of beating the Niners, and Cincy/Houston isn't too bad.

You don't need a parachute to jump out of a plane.

You only need one if you want to do it twice. :unsure




Sorry. I'll see myself out.
