Not Mitchell, who leads the NBA in total shot attempts and threes and made threes, going nine innings through every loss. But the rest of the guys, the ones nearing retirement: De'Andre Hunter, Lonzo Ball, Dean Wade, Larry Nance Jr., plus Thomas Bryant's please Thomas not right now-appearances in 22 games.

KEEP EYES ON SKIES
I don't have a lead suspect – nobody even ahead of the others, really. Many are capable, especially when figuring in local Boeing layoffs and/or ex-Air America jumpers. Motive and means are there, surely, but then they gotta go to Portland the day before Thanksgiving and jump out of a 727. There is slim physical evidence, no DNA, only metal particles on Cooper's clip-on (J.C. Penney) tie which could have been purchased used at a thrift store on his way toward the airport. I think the case will be solved someday, but it will take another major breakthrough. Why am I into this – I got a bad cold in August and caught up on everything. Then I helped my mother-in-law move out in September and pulled up some podcasts and caught up on more than I should. Everything could mean nothing, or everything – the tie's particles could be a fluke, or direct evidence. The name Cooper gave the ticket counter, "Dan Cooper," is the lead character in a Benelux comic book. This could mean the hijacker spent time in France and read the book and enjoyed Dan's exploits, or "Dan Cooper" could just be some random name the hijacker chose. Cooper could have exquisite knowledge of jumbo jets and parachuting, or he coulda perused a periodical and lifted the idea from a hijacker from 12 days before. Again, copycat hijackers with zero parachuting experience survived the same jump amid far more adverse conditions, one at nearly twice the speed and from a greater height. The $200,000 he demanded was readily available from a local bank, in cash, nearing closing hours on the Wednesday before Thanksgiving. Could mean everything, nothing.

IGNORE MCCOY, COLBERT
He isn't Richard McCoy – McCoy used a gun and took over his plane in a completely different fashion, with wigs and disguises and the passengers aware of the ongoing hijacking, whereas Cooper's passengers did not know they were hijacked until leaving the plane. The Cooper witnesses shooed photos of McCoy away, he was 20-years too young and his ears were 20-times the size of D.B. Cooper's. There are witnesses pinning McCoy to positions on the 24th and 25th, impossible to make it to the landing zone and back in time. The parachute recently "unearthed" as McCoy/Cooper's is a completely different one from the two types provided to Cooper. McCoy had a lisp which was not hidden from the hijackers, who thought he was affecting an accent. I could go on, but I'm running out of time to point out that D.B. Cooper also isn't Robert Rackstraw, no matter what Stephen Colbert's brother tells you. D.B. Cooper is not cool – he is the only uncaught skyjacker in American lore, but what kind a jerk hijacks an airplane? The passengers were not aware of their danger, but two flight attendants had to act as Cooper's mouthpiece throughout the ordeal. No, the employees were not in on it – the money was never found, a bunch of flight attendants and pilots and parachuting accomplice Dan Cooper did not secretly launder $200,000 worth of $20 bills. The pilots and (especially) flight attendants were the only victims in this case and should be treated with the sensitivity they've earned.

TODAY IS DB COOPER DAY
TODAY IS D.B. COOPER DAY There will be a lot of bad information out there on social media but you'll have to look past it, dig into what you know. Cooper survived the jump – each of the copycat skyjackers, including those using a parachute for the first time, survived their jumps. Cooper launched into drizzly autumn weather in clothes that, while somewhat inappropriate, were far from a hindrance, let alone a danger. Cooper also came and left with a bag (contents unknown) beside the briefcase which carried the bomb, a satchel to contain gloves, compass, survival rations. The cash was strapped to his body by a parachute he tore apart before jumping. The jump point is certain, cleared of water and dense forest, idling down Vector 23 around 8:15 PM Pacific, and they found no body or chute or money. The likely landing point was not wooded, but mostly pastured and nearly suburban. The idea that Cooper jumped into a heavily-forested mountain range is a myth propagated by that book with the small chapter on D.B. Cooper that we all checked out of the library in fourth grade about a guy who hijacked an airplane with a bomb the night before Thanksgiving. Investigators didn't make the area until several days later, long after Cooper got away. He could have napped through Thanksgiving and Black Friday with enough time on Saturday and Sunday to walk his way toward a stashed getaway car or even rowboat, unseen.

Gaylord Perry driving a Datsun 310 and yes I know we get it how did he grab the wheel without it slipping off. Anyway my parents had a late-70s 310 wagon in the late-80s, a gift from my uncle because he'd graduated law school and didn't have to drive a Datsun anymore. It was a Datsun so of course it was brown, I hated it, hated every bit of that wagon. The brown helped hide the rust.
