On TV they do a comparison (I don't know what ratio) to pitchers speed in baseball. I saw Brett Favre hit 97 mph (adjusted), which is pretty damn fast. I can't remember what the actual speed was, I think it was around 72mph.

fuck how can people actually believe those videos, like the one of lebron james just casually flicking his wrist, and hitting shots from the other free throw line.

this is bullshit...... the fastest is like 45 because Brett Favre threw 40 in a gmae in 2003 and the announcer said that it was evivalent to a 95 mph baseball pitch. a 65 mph throw woul be like 125 mph which is impossible. 600 Rpm isnt accurate either because the ball would have to be rotating like 10 times a second which isnt possible not even professional baseball curveballs spin that fast.

^Catching a 65 mph football would break your hand. That would be like catching a baseball with no glove, not fun
