Location: Bastrop, Texas | I have to say that I thought Fallon did a real good job. It was nice to hear someone who knows what they are talking about, and had a delivery that was full of energy and excitement. Just wanted to give credit where credit is due. |

| I agree 100%! I love Fallon, always have! She isn't afraid to be "out there" and herself. I love it. She should definitely do more commentating for barrel races and rodeos. With her background in acting and modeling it's no surprise she's comfy with the camera. |

| I thought she did a great job too, but in the pre game show Stran looked really uncomfortable when she was speaking, he kept glancing sideways at Jennifer with a weird look. I just thought it was strange............

Location: lone star state | I like this post! Fallon does a great job commentating. She is unbiased, educated and speaks in a way that is clear to non barrelracers. I watched the slack and Sunday semifinals and thought WOW what a great speaker she is :) glad she got to speak at the American ...great job promoting our sport Fallon! |

Location: Bastrop, Texas | You have to also hand it to RFDTV. They took a risk, and I think it was an enormous success.
I think maybe they saw opportunity for Pro Rodeo, as a national spectator sport, to grow and expand it's audience. This is the sort of thing that was needed. I was every bit as excited to watch every minute of those 5 hours as I've ever been to watch any Super Bowl or World Series, and that is saying a lot. They filled up that HUGE stadium pretty well, from what I saw, and I can't think of a better venue to kickoff a new and improved sport that will now grow and expand hopefully beyond everyone's wildest dreams. I just might fly my kids and their families down to Dallas next year to watch this. None of them is into rodeo very much, but they are all eager to watch. I'll bet anything they will become fans. I love all the fanfare, from the C&W bands, to the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders, to the fireworks, to the commentators, including Fallon. They really paid attention to detail, and it's only going to get better.
I can't wait to get my horses legged up, and I'm an old man. I can't imagine how a 15 year old must feel! This is "Americana" and it's good for all of us, and let's not forget Canada, Mexico, and Brazil. I think the sky is the limit. We will see cowboys and cowgirls come from places we never before could have imagined. I wouldn't be surprised to see a new cliche': "Baseball, hot dogs, apple pie.....and Rodeo!   |

Location: Kansas | I agree 100% HotbearLVR. Now if this frozen tundra would leave I could go out and ride. I'm not as driven to ride anymore when it's 30 and below. |

Location: lone star state | I couldn't agree more hotbear. The American has just taken rodeo to a new level. I look forward to what the future holds for this great sport. Randy Bernard did a wonderful job putting an idea into reality and rfdtv is only going to grow and become stronger as is rodeo.
When you have guys like Trevor Brazile saying they are so excited they can't sleep the nite before that speaks volumes to me. The Trevors and Fred Whitfields of the sport knew the American was a new day for rodeo! Iknow it too. Thanks to all those involved in this great event for making the rodeo dream a reality for so many! |

Take 5 min and go give them some kudos. They REALLY NEED to know how awesome we all thought this was.
Fallon did a great job commentating!!! It was pretty cool they had someone there who has proven to be competitive at that level calling the race. |

Location: SE KS | TyE - 2014-03-04 12:40 PM I thought she did a great job too, but in the pre game show Stran looked really uncomfortable when she was speaking, he kept glancing sideways at Jennifer with a weird look. I just thought it was strange............ I can tell you why - Jennifer kept interrupting her. Jennifer I was not so impressed with.
The more I listened to Fallon - I really like her.
