yeah, I think this would make his eleventeenth comback, but he's never really been away. Haven't a lot of guys been training in nashville for a couple years( can't remember names)

the thing that i noticed is he looks really soft right now. I can remember seeing him jump a few years ago and he looked like he was made of iron. Now, not so much. he also looks slow on the runway (although his strides are so long it may be deceptive) compared to past years. But if hes still jumping 18'6, and he can get his body back the way it should be, it could get scary!!
