Cricket in America

Vuvuzela drone killing World Cup atmosphere - World Cup News - FOX Sports on MSN

Another reason why cricket wont be popular in the US. Those craps are always at the cricket ground. Sri Lankans and Indians are always playing that! And of course the SAers

People are going nuts about this. How come cricket fans never complained?

 

[sohum]

Haha, I barely notice them but when I went out with a few friends to watch the England-USA game people were complaining about them.

It ruins EVERYTHING. One single MONOTONOUS note is not atmosphere, it is noise pollution. It also has a dangerously high decibel level so damages your hearing, although those who choose to blow on them probably don't realise that as they are brain damaged

Don Lockerbie ousted as USA Cricket Association chief executive | USA Cricket News | ESPN Cricinfo

Back to dumping ████ and down to Div 7.

With Lock, US cricket had improved so much over the last year. Now the jokers will be back. I guess that's why he gone.

 

[pcfan123]

It's a bit of a complicated situation. The NZ SL series turned out to actually harm USACA and Lockerbie more than help.

But you are right, it's all going down the shitter now

I hope NZ continue to tour, even though they suck.

The pitch was absolutely horrible though. Wtf was up with that, total drag.

Probably nothing special, but did anyone notice the cricket reference in an episode of Modern Family ?

We're getting there.

IPL is on Youtube's most watched vids worldwide in 2010 thing. With a little summary and everything.

Plus Sachin's 200 was on Time's Top 10 Sports Moments of 2010.

1 in 6 people are Indians

 

[Cricketman]

95% of the IPL wasn't even shown live in America, on YT at least. I was watching it on Willow during class and all my friends around me were too, and the Americans were attracted to the whole franchise concept. Much more relatable.

Plus Uthappa was absolutely smoking them one day... our whole row was like ecstatic haha

I swear if someone came over and try to convince me that cricket is stupid, I might just give in. Sometimes I wonder, how did I end up with this, and why do I love it!
