With Helena about to wallop the East Coast with snow, I thought we could all use a little something to brighten our day....Radar Grandpa!

Grandpa's radaring mechanics are sloppy. He could easily pick up some more mph by improving his radar gun launch sequence, creating stretch/tension in his body for an explosive movement. With a little focused practice, he could get those pitchers up to 60mph pretty easily.

EricF, maybe some extra core work?

I'm thinking this video belongs in the Stupid Parent's thread? Presumably that's bucket parent who's not questioning RG's coaching.

Thanks to DFP Radar Grandpa has over 26,000 views on YouTube! I would also like to point out that this video is from 2009, so the pitcher in the video should be college age by now. I wonder which Top-25 program she plays for?

I'll bet she's throwing in the upper 80's by now.
