<p>UCBCEG, if by “lawyer goggles” you mean that when I see a recreational facility which is designed in such a way as to increase the likelihood that people will get injured when it is used in the exact manner in which it is intended to be used I’m inclined to suggest that simple changes to the design to increase safety are a good idea, I plead guilty. Little League fences should be at least 4 feet tall, not lower. There’s no reason not to do that. The yellow plastic corrugated fence cap product should be installed on top of cyclone fences with jagged tops. There should be warning tracks for fields played on by teenagers or older players. I honestly don’t see the argument against doing those things, unless you see a positive virtue in kids getting injured while playing sports in ways that are easily prevented. Admittedly, my years as a baseball coach probably have more to do with this than my profession (I don’t practice injury law) but I’ll cop to having the mindset anyway.</p>
<p>Exactly what is the world view you are in favor of, as opposed to viewing the world through “lawyer goggles?”</p>
