Teton Ridge Acquires The Cowboy Channel to Drive Future of Western Sports - The Cowboy Channel

Thoughts? 

Not sure how I feel about this...

I'm not the biggest fan of who owns teton ridge, but they do make the big events more accessible to viewers. So maybe those of us that have Xfinity will have cheaper access to view the NFR at home 

I kind of feel the oppostie, it seemed like they made the American harder to watch. 

We have the cowboy channel plus app and watch it with an amazon firestick, it works well for us, maybe that will be an option for you for this years NFR. 

Not a fan of Thomas Tull ??? The guy is the epitome of the American Dream. I believe he has big plans in store for The Cowboy Channel---everything this guy touches turns to gold---give it time.

I'm not buying extra things, the american was free to watch on their website and the final 4 round was on basic cable to watch. I wish they'd do something to parter with a channel available to Xfinity customers again so we don't have to buy extra apps or devices. Maybe I just got spoiled having it when it was Comcast 

At first I didn't mind him, but its just gotten to be more about the $$$ than the sport. They made that obvious with the very untasteful cutting demo in New York 

Who is Thomas Tull ? I may be wrong but he isnt part of Teton Ridge. 

I was afraid when Patrich passed cowboy channel might turn bad. I'm not a fan of Teton Ridge and the owners but I don't rodeo and am not a big rodeo person so I guess I won't be involve 

d in their world. 

thomas is one of the owners of teton ridge 

Wonder if they can get Directv to present the Cowboy Channel in HD.  Major drawback.

You want to make a sport bigger, you make it accessible. RFDTV's 100 rodeo's in 100 days accessible.  NCAA screwed themselves last year with all their streaming BS for NCAA women's gymnastics trying to make $$$ on a sport leading into the summer Olympics and their viewership for the sport took a bit of a  dip because of it,not all of us live in an area where we get internet.

Yes---Thomas Tull is the main owner, he has now brought on several partners. I know several people that work for him, he lives close to us in Pittsburgh and has a farm just south, and they rave about him. He is some crazy kinda genius with numbers but he also has a Blues Rock Band that plays the bar scene around the Burgh called The Ghost Hounds and they even toured with the Stones this year. OH YEAH---he is the second largest shareholder of the Steelers, behind the Rooney family AND Steelers stadium used to be Heinz Field---it is now Acrisure Stadium. GUESS WHO owns Acrisure---Thomas Tull. Dude is like 52-53 years old and was raised by a single mom and risen to this---how can't you admire the guy.
