USA Cricket
A quick history of cricket in America is here. And another one here.
All cricket is on satellite TV - NOTHING is on cable: The home series of England, Pakistan and India are on Dish Network; All the rest are chez Rupert, on DirecTv - this includes the 2006-7 Ashes.
If you really want to get organized, buy a Satellite system with a DVR and a Slingbox linked to the internet. Then you can send your cricket to wherever you are - either on a computer or a pocket pc handheld.
Gossip about the Satellite business is best at SatelliteGuys.us, or dbstalk.com.
No satellite? Willow TV can be a web-based solution - their coverage is pretty good - and the streaming rarely buffers.
Aussie bars in Manhattan sometimes have games on: Eight Mile Creek, Sunburnt Cow.
The BBC has Test Match special for all England home games Radio 4 Long Wave.
The USACA (US Cricket Association) has a website that is way too self absorbed.
USCricket.com used to be pretty good, but has sucked lately (bad links, takes forever to load etc). Try it - you never know!
One of the more remarkable places to visit in the US for cricket is Philadelphia: Superb grounds at Haverford College, Merion, Germantown and Philadelphia CC. There is also the CC Morris Cricket Library which has a great collection of memorabilia.

Mad Dog Stuff
There are apparently duelling Maddog pubs in San Antonio, TX - bizzare... maddogs.net vs maddogspubs.com
Another cricket Maddog here.
Hide (our japanese cricketer) has written this page about MDCC in English, and this one in Japanese. If you search in google it will translate the page for you!
There is another Mad Dogs Cricket team in Brazil here!
