Road walks… Baseball, cricket, signed walls and the value of sport 'Normality'

It was quite a ten day trip from Normandy to London and then back here for the Cricket World Cup on Wednesday. While many cultural, emotional, family, and business lessons have been learned, here are four standout examples of best practices to share.

Sports unites on the darkest days. Amid the emotions that coursed through the exhibitions and beaches, the day before the eightieth anniversary of D-Day, I saw this framed exhibition of a glove and a club. The story talked about how baseball served as a salve for the troops once they got past the horrors of that day and awaited the next steps toward reconquering Europe. The most popular GIs were the ones who could have brought some baseball gear and let's not forget they had Yogi Berra and some others among the troops that landed because as it said in the Captain. They all longed for some sense of normalcy among the horror they faced. Witness and baseball, a simple game of catch calmed many nerves and passed the time.

Give a coat While traversing to Trafalgar Square to see some of the MLB Experience, I saw this at a construction site. It was there by the workers to subtly help those who needed a little extra, but perhaps were too proud to enter a shelter. One of our guides told us that these hangouts, as well as honor system refrigerators along sidewalks, were some of the welcome additions of outreach during the pandemic, and they are still continuing. Perhaps there is a connection with certain stadiums, which could also make sense here.

Signing the wall. While a visit to Wimbledon in early June may seem counterintuitive, going behind the scenes before the chase of the Fourteen days begin. You get to see all the little things The All-England Club does to make it special. Perhaps the coolest thing is the signing wall. Every player signs it every year… literally a rite of passage. I've always felt that every building should have a signage wall, a way to mark time in a tangible format.

Finally, special meaning for the US and India for me. On Wednesday I was lucky enough to score a ticket and all the valuable parking spots for India and the upstart USA in the final match in New York of the ICC World Cup. IIt was a beautiful morning with 35 km in a stadium built in the Long Islands Eisenhower Parka stadium coming from Las Vegas where it was the central part of the F1 race there and will soon be brought back with little trace that it was ever there used to be. Besides the cricket experience on Wednesday, there was also a reminder of the last time India and the US met in a team sport here in the United States. October 2OO1 at Joel Coliseum in Winston Salem, North Carolina. It was the once-postponed Davis Cup match between the two countries and the first international team sporting event on American soil after September 11. I may be the only person who was at both, and given my stop in Normandy last week, the significance of that Wake Forrest event was not lost on me. Both the Davis Cup and Cricket were joyful celebrations of sport, which healed many rough edges for everyone, just as a game of catch on the beaches of Normandy did for some GIs.

Quite a few days, so happy I went at all.
