    I think it needs to be noted that the 100.9 was the fastest speed ever officially recorded in a game. So its not to say that someone hasn't surpassed that in practice, or even in a game. It just hasn't been officially recorded.

    Right on.

    And the reasons why the Sidd Finch story wasn't all over the news are in the article.

    Sure they were. The main reason why word didn't get out is because Finch insisted on keeping his tryouts private.

    I haven't read that yet. Shall I go ahead and retract to save myself from further embarassment?

    I do think I remember hearing that Ryan did throw 104 or 105 in a game before. I think the problem is that it was on the home teams gun, so maybe a little home cooking for not. I would guess somebody from the league would have to have their own gun and run the gun for it to count.
