Re: National Finals Rodeo
Didn't know it was on. I like watching rodeo, and going to a rodeo is fun, but I'm not such a big fan that I know any of the competitors' names or their standing in the rankings. But I'll watch it when I'm channel surfing and come across a rodeo.

Re: National Finals Rodeo
I don't watch it on tv because I don't get that channel.
I used to go to the NFR when it was in Oklahoma City.
My dad was RCA in the 40's to the mid 60's.

I won't be wronged, I won't be insulted, and I won't be laid a hand on.
I don't do those things to other people and I require the same of them.
Don’t pick a fight with an old man. If he is too old to fight, he’ll just kill you.

I never miss a round of it. I do some team roping and both of my girls barrel raced prior to going to college. My older daughter actually won the Lane Frost scholarship.

Re: National Finals Rodeo
Me too, I don't miss a single run or ride. That's awesome! Mostly bullriding for me, a little calf roping, and I do love to throw a few steers every now and then.TXBO wrote:I never miss a round of it.

Re: National Finals Rodeo
LOL! I'm too smart to get on the back of a bull and too small for bulldogging. I did try bulldogging one time after a few beers (maybe more than a few) and it was mighty painful.

Re: National Finals Rodeo
Haha then you're smarter than me! I wish I was still at it. This is me when I "thought" I was riding good lol

Re: National Finals Rodeo
I "retired" from bull riding in 1989. Rode for 15 years. I loved it but funny thing is, I haven't been to a rodeo since I rode my last one.

It's just not the same now with the vests, helmets, and all of the padding they wear. Takes out some of the excitementjb2012 wrote:The one on the left was in denton, I actually won that one!

It also helps young men to keep from being permanently injured.
I'm all for it.
We don't see anyone complaining about the gear the NFL guys wear...
