Come on, son! Blow the whistle! You can end this charade the BFTS has become. We all know that loop wasn't intentional, you're a tall guy, that was a stout bull....so where does that put that loop when you tie your rope? It was a bad call and a dishonest call. But then I guess we can't expect Randy Bernard to be stuck with all those "Justin McBride World Champion" T-shirts, can we? Come on Jody, it's not whining, just say what happened to you, tell everyone what they're doing, take the first step in making things right again. This "NEW" PBR ain't worth watchin' no more. Best regards.

At this point, all the cowboys have been giving it their everything, beat up, need to be commended. I agree that Jody was short changed. Meanwhile some of the riders have been given full rides, when it is obvious they have been on the ground at 7.4 - 7.8 seconds. Some of the Brazilians have been scored a little lower than others (wow... never thought I would say that). Maybe with all the monies PBR has raked in they can load up the wagon with judges and have them treated at Tony Mendes Lasic surgeon. cowboy4443

I can't believe how terrible the judging has been. I remember last year on every questionable ride they would show the stop watch i have only seen it twice this year yet there have been i bet 15 questionable rides. It needs to change.
I have a comment on the Jody Newberry incident none of us know the truth but Jody. I believe that any leg up that someone can get at this time will be explored, however his credibility will be forever tarnished rather it is true or not or until he gets caught again. Lets give him Oliveira and Shivers the benefit of the doubt and hope it doesn't happen again.

Its just another night of Politcal Bull Riding. Hopefully Guilherme takes it from Justin, but maybe tonight they will finally start policing the soakers? ?

Political Bull Riding. That is exactly what CThrash said last night...
All I can say about Jody is that from what I know he would never cheat!!
I thought the finals last night were awesome though!!!

I have to disagree. The Jody thing pissed me off a little b/c at the event they made it sound like it was intentional which seems ridiculous to me. BUT if they are going to call some guys for it they have to call ALL of them. I know some do it intentional but you know what a lot of times the bulls are not cooperating in the chute and the guys get the spur caught in the rope without knowing it (since they are trying to get a fair shot and get out of the chute) but it is still an advantage whether it was done intentionally or not. They called 3 people on it while i was at finals. My other complaint is, why haven't they done it the whole year? and not just at the finals? (yes, I know they have caught Edgard but he isn't the only guy to do it)... Oh well, I am sure Jody isn't sweating it... besides I don't think anyone was taking the World Title away from Justin this year!

All this political crap and favoritism has to go. This ain't bullridin'! The Challenger Tour and the other lower ranked tours are still great to watch because none of the bigwigs have mucked with them. STOP MUCKING WITH THE BFTS!!! I don't know of any fan who likes to see one guy promoted over the rest and scored higher than the rest just because of his name or his smile or how his ass looks in Wranglers, or whatever it was about Justin that made them decide he would be this year's champ. There was a time when you could really cheer a guy and be happy that he was the new champ. I would love to have those days back!

that is completely wrong to say that they just GAVE the buckle to justin because he earned it! he faught all year for the title and worked his butt off and the judges arn't just going to give it to him because he's the favorite. i think the call was right for jody they called out other guys too for it, not just because jody was beating justin in the standings. they were suspecting him of doing it in other rounds and they finally caught him and so he was disqualified, u should be happy they didn't go and review other rounds and disqualify him from the others. yes the clocking has been wrong and i've noticed that they have been give the rider points when he never made it or they would give it to one that only made 7.4 but didn't to one that made 7.8. the riders should all check to see if there spur is caught before they nod there head. Never say never jody had motive and was suspected of doing it before. u don't think he would do anything just to get that title? i mean they all want it and he was on top for the finals and had a chance to take it. i think the call was fair and you should be lucky more wasn't taken with it!

Mike Lee Fan...you obviously don't know my husband like I do...and some of the other fans do. Jody might have been "suspected" or he might not have been. Were you there? The commentators don't always give the correct information and are known to pad the truth a little too. I.E. calling Jody a cheater. Jody wouldn't do "anything" to win the title. He wasn't really even in the runnings for the title b/c Justin was so far ahead of him. I agree that Justin worked his butt off and deserved the world title this year. However, I do not appreciate your uninformed assumptions and negative insinuations about my husband. He is a good man with good motives. Think what you will, but please be careful of what you say and how you say it.
God bless, Amanda Newberry

First off we are all fans of the riders and some more for the bulls but anyway we look at it we have to go on what we see and or told. When we see footage of a rider with his spur looped we assume he knew. Amanda you are closer to it than all of us but let me tell you something we as an average fan have to go on what we see. I saw a Spur Looped and he should have been dq'd. We cannot sit here trying to justify what he did or what anyone else did. The bottom line is he was dq'd for cheating if you dont call it cheating you need a reality check. He has a tremendous amount of support and people saying we dont believe you did anything wrong, now if that was the case and we were all wrong for assuming it why was he dq'd. There is unfourtunately no explanition that will correct what has happened. i have pasted the defintion of cheater i believe this is the correct meaning. Now we all know it was an accident but the problem i have is you are trying to cover up that he was dq'd for cheating.
1 a : to practice fraud or trickery b : to violate rules dishonestly (as at cards or on an examination)
He is great and i wish him luck but please stop the charades.

You certainly arent speaking for the members of this forum.

I second that Cody. First your definition of cheating does not support your case based on Jody's explination. Secondly what you saw was a knot caught several jumps outside the chute. You do not know if the knot was caught before he left the chute or on the first move out of the chute as you are judging it based only on what you saw there. I would argue that you need a reality check! Finally you can not say what he did was intentional. Only Jody knows that for sure. You can say he was disqualified because according to the judge a foul was commited. It could have been a judging error or a rider error only the rider knows for sure and he has said his piece.

Yeah...what Terri said lol. I agree with Terri and Cody. I respect Jody. He is a great man of God and I seriously doubt he would be cheatin. At least 5 other guys got dq'd for the same thing so if you're gonna point out what happened to Jody you gotta mention the other ones too cause he ain't the only guy who it happened to. I respect what Amanda said too. She knows a whole lot more about Jody, her husband, than most people do so say crap like that to her.I'm done for right now. I hope this don't turn out like the Snyder thread did.
