Brady had a laser pointer in his face on at least a few plays last night

But yes, the Pat's history of cheating has many non-Pats fans wishing them the worst, but that has nothing to do with this not being a laser just because you want it to be.

And how do you know, for sure, it wasn't a Pats fan? You're assuming a lot...

If it's a cheap laser pointer, the divergence spread on those things is significant. Something like five feet at 1,000 feet.

So is an autofocus beam on a camera. I think the ball is in their court to prove what the actual source was (and not speculate), and who the fan was. Without that, their case is silly.

Are auto focus "beams" on cameras green? Aren't they IR?

Depends on the manufacturer. Either way, nobody's proven that it was a laser either.

Which manufacturer uses visible, green light to auto focus?

Thanks. I'm not a camera buff, so I didn't know.

Yeah if it did happen, I'm sure it was someone screwing around, it was basically a toy. It isn't like someone got busy with a Wicked Lasers S3 krypton.

Using Google maps (since some are scared of Bing 'round these parts ), given where Tom was at the time, the 6 yard line I think, the farthest point would be the Northeast and Southeast corners of the upper deck and they're at ~325 feet from the center of the field. You'd have to search Alibaba for a long time to fins laser that crappy with that kind of dispersion.

But alas, it was almost certainly a Pats fan, and they have shitty stuff. We're hunters with NRA memberships, our lasers are awesome!
