I don’t like not knowing the rules, I didn’t like there was only on exemption, although I was really glad Cody Wright did so well. I hated some of the angles they showed on TV, and I am done with the Brazilians soaking their bulls and getting rerides without ever leaving the chute. The bull riding took too long and I quit watching it. I am not too far from just not watching at all.
The money is great for rodeo, I love that and the qualifiers are awesome and adding the Breakaway was awesome! Those ladies were so appreciative and classy! I hope they are included next year and get to compete for the million like the other events.
The Brazilians have ruined a lot of good bulls over the years doing that crap. Didn’t the PBR put a stop to that? I’d be a total Hell B!tch if I owned bulls. |

So the soaking bulls thing is still going on? I thought that they put a stop to this a while back. I dont watch much any more so I thought the soaking thing had ended. |

They waived the mark out rule in the broncs so I doubt they care a lot about soaking those bulls.

I didnt watch any of the American, did they waived the mark out rules for all the riders ? Why would they do that anyway. |

| Question about the payout. So I know the winners won 100,000 with $50,000 going towards WPRA standings. I see they are paying the top 4 money this year does that money count towards the standings? So would the money Kylie & Amberleigh won count for them too? |

I see they are paying the top 4 money this year does that money count towards the standings? So would the money Kylie & Amberleigh won count for them too? Money doesn’t count for WPRA standings. It only counts for the PRCA standings. WPRA doesn’t allow men to compete. If they count the earnings in the WPRA standings, they will open themselves up to a HUGE lawsuit since the American is run under BBR rules that allow anyone to compete.

Ah gotcha! Wondered about how that was all working out. Thanks for the answer. |

Lol, if we still had bulls, there would be a lot of Brazilians running around with hotshot marks on them. My dad had a way of doing that to anyone abusing the stock. The Brazilians would have been run off. |

We watch PBR every weekend, and I just nearly have a fit sometimes watching how some of the Brazilians do. Silvano Alves being the worst in my opinion . They do put them on the clock eventually, but sometimes they give them WAY too much leeway in just sitting there playing with their bull rope, rocking back and forth on the bull, moving their legs, etc. It's almost like, if you don't want to ride, why are you there? I hope that's not offensive, just my opinion. . . . |

Not offensive at all! I was thinking the same thing during the 8 man round . Then he came off his re ride bull in 2 jumps. The guy In the arena Russ, was really put out with the Brazilians, too. I wonder if he’ll be back next year. |

After Charmayne was raked over the coals for her observations at the NFR, I think I he ladies are a little reluctant to say anything interesting at first. I loved Charmayne’s commentary, but a lot didn’t. |

You may not like her, but, IMO, Fallon Taylor has done the best job of commentary at these events. |

The Brazillions have a long history of soaking bulls.
It's sort of their thing, annoying as all get out, but their thing. Need to put them on the clock for sure |

Didn't mean to ruffle your feathers...it was an observation. And actually for me it was bad enough I muted the TV . Not becasue she said anything bad, she just didnt' say much at all. The other commentator seemed to try to lead her into a commentary and she typicall responded with a simple "yes" which is much better than a "yah". And again, like I said I thought she was much better on Sunday. I realize that especially in barrel racing that there seems to be a group that if the commentator says anything like "horse got on its front end" or "she maybe needed to pick up the inside rein coming into the barrel" or anything the vaguely can be construed as a negative it gets nasty on social media. |
