Mark, you described the same thing I just went through, though with a broken leg. Being more immobile than usual, I found myself reading a lot of the old discussions here on the forum, catching up on some back issues of Baseball America, as well as some of the baseball books I've been sent/purchased recently. I also went back and re-watched Ken Burns' excellent Baseball series while stuck in the hospital (thank God for laptops and Netflix!)
I can honestly say that the forum, and its members helped me through a difficult period. But I took that time to learn a lot about my hobby.
