Default Clutch won't disengage

I am not sure I like the idea of taking off in gear as what if it doesn't release then I have to cut the engine to stop and find a way to push it back home. Not to mention will anything get missed up? Sure don't need to have any damage occur.

Another thought came to mind on my situation as I plan to try something this weekend to get this corrected. Could the throwout bearing be frozen to the transmission driveshaft? As I remember this bearing slides on the shaft by means of the throwout fork which is attached back to the clutch pedal and pushes on the pressure plate. If this is the case, I bet I need to pull the tranny to resolve this matter.[/size]
