The Million Dollar Arm: Baseball meets India

It's interesting that I read about this on an American sports blog. And for a moment I forgot I was in India and thought to myself, "Man, I wish I was in India right now so I could follow this program." And Boom! Wake up call.

Anyway, turns out there is a program to find the next big arm for baseball. They're going to try out kids aged 16-21 in various cities and the winner gets $100,000 and a chance to win a million dollars if selected to a baseball team. I think. The first season was on TV last year and the next one starts in November 2008.

Last year's winners are currently in CA in training camp. They even have a blog -
