Thanks but I can't download, takes 30 to 60 mins for a short clip of a few min. Someday, if I live long enough ,Verizon will put lines in so I can have DSL.
I'm not real fawn of wrecks. I was watching last year when(of course I can't remember his name)got his foot wraped and it took forever to get him loose. Even the riders were in there with a knife trying to cut the rope. I just like little wrecks and little bumps.

[enters cellar, with beer]. Thats what PBR is about, little wrecks and bumps. I cant imagine being in that situation, getting my foot caught and thinking to myself "there is no way they are going to get away from this monster" while experiencing the worst pain of my life . You know thats what has to be goingh through a guys mind when that happens.

I guess thats why they call it the roughest sport on dirt. 8 seconds seems like forever sometimes. I don't think the rider feels the pain while its happening, to much adrenalin. You probably, along with my husband don't understand a fascination of watching a man master a rank Bull. He just says they are trying to kill themself. I love animals and Bulls are among my favorites, I have rasied several and never had a mean one, of course I never tried to ride one of them. So I don't know if they would of bucked or not. I sometimes root for the Bull. Once you see the beauty in the ride, you realize he is the last true gladiator. There is nothing more beautiful then a man riding the bull with perfect balance. If you get a chance watch Justin McBride ride.

Ross Coleman Wins $100,000!


COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (July 16, 2006) - The Professional Bull Riders Inc. (PBR) extends congratulations to Ross Coleman (Molalla, Ore.) for claiming the $100,000 championship title at the 2006 Calgary Stampede held during the past week in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. Coleman entered the final round on Sunday afternoon tied for first place and was able to hold on for the event title. "It was a great experience," said Coleman. "I defended my title for the richest ride in history. This was the second time someone was able to ride for $100,000 in one ride and I wanted to keep the title."
Coleman rode eight bulls during the week-long event in Canada. In the championship round he rode Kesler Rodeo Company's three-time Canadian Bull of the Year, Shiver & Shake to 92.5 points. Coleman returns to the United States with $112,000 Canadian Dollars in his pocket.
"I would like to thank the Calgary Stampede committee for inviting the PBR riders to compete this year," Coleman added. "I had an awesome time and hope I get to come back next year."
The 2006 Calgary Stampede featured a new tournament format this year. Cowboys from the United States and Canada were invited to compete for the $1.6 million dollar purse. The champion in each event was awarded $100,000. Other PBR bull riders competing at the Calgary Stampede were Cody Whitney (Asher, Okla.), Adriano Moraes (Sao Paulo, Brazil), Greg Potter (Queensland, Australia), Mike Lee (Decatur, Texas), J.W. Hart (Overbrook, Okla.), and Wiley Petersen (Fort Hall, Idaho).
Coleman is the first PBR cowboy to win the $100,000 grand prize at the Calgary Stampede. He joins a long list of previous Calgary Stampede champions including PBR bull riders, 1994 champion, Adriano Moraes; 1997 champion, J.W. Hart; 1998 champion and current PBR President, Ty Murray (Stephenville, Texas); 2001 champion, Scott Schiffner (Stettler, AB, Canada); 2002 and 2003 champion Justin Volz (Charlie Lake, BC, Canada); and 2004 champion, Robert Bowers (Brooks, AB, Canada).
This win marks the second time in bull riding history for Coleman to collect a $100,000 paycheck. His first was in 2001 when he covered Jerry Nelson's bull Copenhagen Tuff-E-Nuff in the Mossy Oak Shoot Out Bonus round at the Columbus, Ohio PBR event. Coleman passed the $1 million mark this year moving into ninth in the all time money earning standings with $1,049,686.18. He's currently number ten in the race for the PBR Built Ford Tough Million Dollar Championship.

Findly got around to watching the tape from texas (ESPN) Extreme Bulls from Sat. The long round stunk, I kept thinking re-ride and they would get scores in the 80+ range. Now the short round was great. They even had M.O.Mudslinger & a Raindeer that looked like a young verison of Raindeer Dippin'. Course I don't remember the riders names, just the bulls There were a few good one, I think I'm just spoiled from watching the PBR.

I was just watching Xtreme Bulls from Reno. JW Harris was riding a bull named Werewolf and man, thats one of the most amazing bulls Ive ever seen. It wasnt just the kick or the spin with this bull, he was just completely flailing all over the place and spinning like a twister. I love the ones that get all 4 in the air like this one did. His buck off % was 87.76, but even more impressive is that JW scored a 96! Ive been following bull riding for over a year now and I am more amazed every time. I actually wish I would have tried bull riding when I was younger. Even with all the risk involved, it seems like something I would have tried.
