They never do when Fox (or NBC for that matter) airs the PBR. At least OLN (oops VS) tends to show a few more riders in their telecasts. Well it is better than nothing I guess.

I agree. I always hate it when they don't show most of the riders. I would rather watch it on VS, but it is better than nothing.

I'm just glad I got to see PBR. Cause i only get to watch it so much. I had to fight with my dad to watch it on the big screen cause he wanted to watch football.

If y'all noticed there was only a 1 1/2 hour time slot for round 2&3 on fox, no wonder we don't get to see all the rides, plus they have to do their bull craping too. When the event is on VS(OLN) they will let the time period run over the two hours. #comp2611#

They did pretty good with the time they were allowed. And we saw every ride in the short-go, with the exception of Wiley's re-ride on Red Jacket (I wanted to see that one by the way).
I think it's good to have an event or two on FOX every once in awhile, but I'm partial to the VS. channel coverage myself. They give it the full respect.
It wasn't near as bad as some of you are saying though. They only had an hour and a half to show 60 rides plus rerides.

I agree with Cody. I think FOX did a good job. I can remember when OLN/VS only had 1.5hour broadcasts and we didn't see the majority of the 2nd round (it wasn't that long ago). Like Cody said, we did get to see the short go which is the most important round.
I think it's great that the PBR is on FOX and they did a great job with the opening (comparing it to football) to get the attention of new audiences. Major companies (FOX, NBC, CBS) are vital to the growth of the PBR which should lead to increases in money and/or events. For those reasons, I am TOTALLY for it, esp. if it is as infrequent as it has been this year.
My only complaint is.... I would like to know how Cody Whitney, JB Mauney and Cody Hart got hurt. They didn't show those rides or even tell us that they were hurt and we are talking a broken hand, possible arm facture and strained/pulled groin. The first two don't usually happed in a "normal" buck off.

I have to agree with Cody. We saw a lot more rides on FOX than we would've seen on NBC. I definately prefer VS, but I'll take what I can get.
