This comment is a good example of that. Maybe he was out feeding the cows when his cell phone rang and he just started talking when he should have been thinking.Stockyard Queenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03036587088523124787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4866947503973668447.post-35454506936513146552008-06-11T12:25:00.000-07:002008-06-11T12:25:00.000-07:00"I got a tad growly over Ty Murray saying that a c...<I>"I got a tad growly over Ty Murray saying that a comeback depends upon how much Paulo wants it.

I'm happy for Sean. He's the only rider who isn't a real "cowboy." He may be a country boy, but he was raised riding a bike and roller blades, not horses and bulls. I liked that his dad was with him for this win! He came home from school one day and told his dad he wanted to ride bulls, so his dad made him a bucking barrel! Last year Sean wore #4 on his vest and this year he wears #10. Cord wears something like #39 and we know that his performance hasn't been up to par. Second is fantastic for Cord and we should applaud it! Maybe it will inspire him to ride like we all know he can! I'm hoping for a World Title for Sean in the next few years. I don't think Cord will come close--and I really like the guy. Cord just doesn't seem to put out the effort.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4866947503973668447.post-42271902558232901222008-06-11T07:16:00.000-07:002008-06-11T07:16:00.000-07:00I wasn't going to comment on Ty's remarks, because...I wasn't going to comment on Ty's remarks, because sometimes I feel like all I do is wait for one of the boys to say something stupid and then pounce on it, but really! Paulo and his family need to concentrate on his getting well right now, not worrying about whether he'll be riding bulls again this time next year.<BR/><BR/>I like your observation about Sean Willingham. Is it possible we're seeing the "fairy tale ending" school of judging here lately?Stockyard Queenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03036587088523124787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4866947503973668447.post-46024076166754613772008-06-10T21:08:00.000-07:002008-06-10T21:08:00.000-07:001.

It's like the spam that used to be confined to my spam email folder has now been vomited onto my TV screen. I can't see one of the commercials without thinking of time spent in motel hell while waiting for our house to be finished. The walls I swear were made of cardboard and we'd have to listen to someone's headboard banging against the wall most nights. One night we could not contain our guffaws when we heard one woman ask "Are you DONE yet???" after a couple of hours of headboard banging. We'd truly been watching the clock and planned to dial 911 if it had gone on for more than 4 hours. Yeah, I'm definitely for smacking the snorer with the champagne bottle, as well as that company's advertising department and CEO.<BR/><BR/>2. We got aggravated a few weeks ago when the commentators were all asked for their opinions on some bull/rider subject or another. When it came to Leah, she had a well thought out and detailed opinion on the subject. All the guys in the booth had to say regarding her opinion was "She sure is purttier than any of us." AAAARGH!!<BR/><BR/>3. I'm sick to death about Paulo's injuries. I'm going to continue to think positively. I left what I hope was a kind and amusing message on that announcement page. I got a tad growly over Ty Murray saying that a comeback depends upon how much Paulo wants it. I'm sure Jerome Robinson WANTED it pretty bad Ty, but sometimes no amount of WANT can fix what's BROKEN. <BR/><BR/>4. Regarding He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named's highly touted return in Dallas, I plan to watch the event with the mute on. On the other forum someone was mentioning all the many ways he is NOT the greatest cowboy that ever lived. I'd like to add one more to the immense list of better riders. Ty Murray, who was 8 TIMES the World's Best ALL Round Cowboy while competing in the rough stock events. <BR/><BR/>5. My husband has a theory regarding the Sean Willingham win. With He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named out, Versus has been desperately trying to paint some cowboy or another as the year's super great. First it was Travis Briscoe, then it was Chris Shivers, then Kody Lohstroh, etc. During round one, the wakeboarding featured Sean heavily and lo and behold the points fairy musta really liked his legs or something because no Brazilian I know would have gotten an 84 for riding a bull's ribs for 3 out of 8 seconds. Cord just isn't the This Years Super Great Rider of All Time type. A reasonable score of 79 would have done the trick but this weekend's superstar wouldn't have looked as fab with a 79. You'd think the OBVIOUS choice for This Year's Super Great Rider would, of course, be Marchi. But, well, he's from "Mexico".Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01293194264796259149noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4866947503973668447.post-32760128959874367342008-06-10T16:06:00.000-07:002008-06-10T16:06:00.000-07:00That is terrible!

For the full story:<BR/><BR/>http://www.pbrnow.com/release/?id=3968<BR/><BR/>I can't believe it. I'm so sorry for Paulo and his family. I'm grateful, though, as I'm sure everyone is, that he is still able to walk and even moreso that he's still alive. <BR/><BR/>My prayers are with them.shannonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06917315124069408543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4866947503973668447.post-42399125499936739172008-06-10T12:57:00.000-07:002008-06-10T12:57:00.000-07:00My dear, I'm always happy to hear I can be sort of...My dear, I'm always happy to hear I can be sort of entertaining.

Normally, while I do think they replay those accidents too many times, I'm immune to them, but I had to turn away from his whenever they replayed it. Once was enough for me.<BR/><BR/>a-c) I don't like Larry the Cable Guy, so I was even less inclined to listen to the commentators this time. I did hear what Justin said about Kasey being "just fine" and knew it was in regards to his girlfriend and that one didn't bother me too much. Sounds like I missed a few, though. Personally, I think she's beautiful and I'm happy that he's happy and doing well. I was glad to see him there.<BR/><BR/>4. Zantrax! I had the same exact reaction you did. Almost word for word. I could not believe they were promoting that drug and wondered how it was that an organization for a bunch of cowboys thought it was a good idea. Doubtful the majority of them have a problem there.<BR/><BR/>5) I was happy for Sean, but then, I didn't know that Cord had never won an event. Now, I'm sad that he didn't win.<BR/><BR/>6) I hated seeing Guilherme bucked off, too.<BR/><BR/>7) I agree. That was really odd. And? He was so out of control at the end that I was surprised that the score was so high. Oh, I knew that if they gave him the 8 seconds, he'd still get enough points to win, but 84+ ? I don't know about that.<BR/><BR/> I don't need to tell you that I laughed through a lot of this. Thanks again for keeping us entertained!shannonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06917315124069408543noreply@blogger.com
