.... it is fair to assume that we will learn some new things about ourselves, just as we did in India.

It's such a rare commodity to have time where you don't have much to do except watch a game in front of you.
Certainly it is different because I have someone from my family playing. It is also different because no one is marketing a single item to me - there's no commercials, no advertisements behind the batting box..... just kids playing baseball.
Then, you have kids playing who you start to get to know - this one is not so solid as a thrower, another one is a great pitcher, a third is always trying to steal bases..... and on and on. Great stuff.
