Do you mind if I quote you next time I am in traffic court for a speeding ticket?

Why do we trust the gun when it is pointed at Jenny Finch, or Cat Osterman, but when a phenom hits the street, we change our tune?

Not saying that I haven't laughed my a$$ off at the top dogs in the world of daddy-ball, but come on...
Sorry, but the radar guns that a dad or youth league coach use are of very low quality. Speeds can vary widely and the guns may be picking up something other than the ball because the operator is not really trained and I doubt that these folks now how to properly tune and maintain the equipment. Please do not compare these guns to what your local PD uses to issue you a citation.
