Does anyone know if Fran is flying commercial or private jet. Is he required to fly commercial. Just curious I was going to track his flight on radar.

7 minute delay. On the ground. They were hauling A** 55 minute flight. 10 minutes to altitude and then pilot punched it for over 10-15 at over 500 knots before descending. Wow.
Thanks eveningnewsteam.

This is not correct. He actually flys by drone.

Fran had two goals for today, for his son to have a successful surgery, and for his team to win. One down... one to go!

I have never been on a private plane without at least 3 Crown and cokes

 

[chadfrey]

One of these was earmarked to celebrate a successful surgery. The second for a win tonight. The third, well, I'm thinking a good diagnosis for P-Mac

Just curious, but does anyone know how far in advance of tip off time do the players and coaching staff have their pre-game meal?

But I really have no clue.
