(sure, the announcers can tell you a couple minutes later, garbage). For the past 5 years a computer simulation can tell me a 135MPH serve in tennis is 13mm off the line, and it's law, but we don't have something telling us on-screen how far an upper-deck shot is? not only do i want that information as the ball is traveling, i want to know how fast it's going and how many revolutions it's making.
