Quote: dboy "The ball went forward about 3 metres.
Was he running FORWARD at 3m/s?
No, he wasn't.'"
But wait, you said he had no forward momentum at all before.
So now he does have forward momentum but you've measured it at less than 3m/s. A very slow speed for a half. Or anyone for that matter.
You've also, I notice, measured the point at which the ball left Sutcliffe's hands and the point it hits the ground as 3 metres.
Interesting. Bullsh|t, but interesting nonetheless.
