Teamwork

One thing I miss about a team sport is the feeling of togetherness. I mean, I work in a team in my professional life but its not quite the same.
For example, in football, if a teammate was knocked out by a dirty tackle, then we would make sure that the guy was brought down too and in a pretty nasty manner.
Or in cricket, if a batsman hit a four of the other bowler, and I got him out in the next over, my bowling partner would rejoice as much as I did. And I used to feel great .. as in "bastard! take this"! If the opposition bowler did hit a tailender, then we used to make sure that they got plenty of rough stuff too! And the feeling was not personal satisfaction, but of a complete teamwork! The happiness was complete with all the teammates feeling the same and sharing and enjoying others success! I miss that feeling of doing it together or doing it for the my friend, my team!
