Im suprised lambert would even put up with the thought of bringing them in here like that. sure it may work for the rare and lucky bulls such as upset stomach, but when we're talkin about ratings that go as low as twenties and good lord 13!
For the ABBI round Cody does not really get to select the bulls that come. It is a pay to play type deal. The contractors pay to have the bulls bucked and judged. I agree that on any night a few bulls might have an off night and when you are bucking 45 bulls you should expect at least a few rerides. However, the ABBI rounds that have occurred this year have produced a significantly higher number of rerides then other events where the bulls are selected by Cody and asked to come.
I was suprised to see how poorly Bells Blue bucked as well. I can tell you though that he did not look real great in the back pens that night both before or after the event. It was a little warm there and I am wondering if the heat and the trip combined with the event lights and fireworks etc just got to him. I was actually looking forward to the match-up.
As far as the rider discussion that is a totally different system and therefore topic. I would like to see a discussion of the bull system here not the rider system which we have already discussed. So I will not get into that here. Feel free though to start a separate thread on that if you would like to discuss it further.
well now that i know it wasnt all cody then it makes a lil more sense. he is so great at his job. I just have total respect for him.
oh and i will try to stay more on topic or start a new thread where it is on topic. #ezpi_blush# thanks for keepin me in line! lol hope i didnt start too much drama elsewhere
