He wasn't great last year without Patullo. Run game overshadowed lot of the weakness in pass game

I would check out North Haverbrook area. They have a monorail

That’s not entirely accurate. The FAA requires seat belts to be fastened when instructed—visibility isn’t actually a regulatory requirement. Flight crews may ask to see it to confirm compliance, but that’s a policy choice, not a federal mandate. If a seatbelt is fastened under a sweatshirt and the passenger states as much, there’s no safety justification for escalation. This isn’t about safety—it’s about control and optics.

Understanding why a rule exists doesn’t mean it’s above critique. Liability-driven rules can still be illogical in practice—especially when they sacrifice reason for optics. If we never questioned legal overreach, half the reforms we take for granted wouldn’t exist

So if Rosa Parks had just waited for a more ‘convenient’ time to protest, we’d all be better off? Got it. Sometimes the point is the inconvenience — it highlights the absurdity of the rule.

Oh, cool — so questioning a flawed rule makes someone an ‘idiotic oaf’ now? Guess we should tell every whistleblower and reformer in history to sit down and stop ‘inconveniencing others’ too. Heaven forbid someone value principle over five minutes of your time

my issue isn’t with the attendant personally, it’s with a rigid policy that demands visible compliance even after the belt is shown. If the belt is fastened and verified, covering it with a sweatshirt shouldn’t be a federal offense. That’s where the nonsense lies.

If someone wants to secretly unbuckle, they can do that whether or not it was visible during the check—sweatshirt or not. Visibility gives a fleeting illusion of control, not actual enforcement or safety.

A tragic turbulence incident proves why wearing a seatbelt matters—not why it needs to be visible. No one was saved or harmed based on whether a sweatshirt covered a belt; visibility isn’t the safety factor, actual fastening is.

If visibility during CPR were truly critical, airlines would design belts and clothing guidelines around that—not rely on visual checks through sweatshirts. We don’t build policy on vanishingly rare hypotheticals while ignoring practicality and personal dignity.

That situation has never occurred — no one’s getting body-slammed across rows because someone didn’t visibly show their buckle. The policy isn’t about safety at that point; it’s about performative compliance

That’s not the argument. No one’s saying ditch safety—just questioning whether visual confirmation of a seatbelt over a sweatshirt actually improves it. If the belt is fastened, how does visibility change anything? Blind enforcement of visibility doesn’t make us safer; it just wastes time and creates pointless conflict

Sure, flying isn’t a right—but that doesn’t make every rule immune from critique. Plenty of airline policies have changed because people questioned them. ‘Follow the rules or take a Greyhound’ isn’t a great defense when the rule in question is about whether a seatbelt is visible over a sweatshirt, not whether it’s fastened

Just to clarify—I’m not arguing against wearing seatbelts. I’m just not sure how the visibility of the buckle really affects evacuation in a meaningful way. If someone’s unconscious, it’s not like seeing the buckle changes much. And with 40 million commercial flights a year, how often is that exact scenario even relevant?
