There are some riders I dont care for personally but I wont mention any names just cause I dont want to offend their fans.

Well, don't like is a little to strong, I do have riders that I don't really care for that much. So my don't care that much for list would be:
Justin McBride
Chris Shivers
Greg Potter
Yeah I know, most of you are going to think I'm crazy. *Waits for the angy McBride and Shivers fans to attack.* lol.

Well, like mlm18 said, it's not that I don't like some of them, it's just that I definitely don't want certain riders to ride their bulls. I don't have anything against them, I just don't really care to watch them.
Here is my list:
Adriano Moraes (heh, not many agree there)
Adam and Gilbert Carrillo
Luke Snyder (I liked him at first, but he was soon passed by about 45 other riders on my list)
I'm sure if I met some of these guys, I would feel different. But I haven't, so this is my opinion as of now. I can't think of anymore off the top of my head, but I probably will.

Thanks Kari I totally agree!
I would actually take it one step further though and say that I would not want to offend the riders or those that know them either. Many of the riders speak so highly of their fans I can not imagine what it would be like to find their name listed. Or be a family member/friend of one of the riders and see it as well. There are riders that I don't care for personally, but I still respect them because they have all worked so hard to get where they are at. For that should be given respect.

Respect is different. There is no doubt I respect every single one of them. But that don't mean I have to cheer them on.
And I'm not one to go through life by keeping my opinions inside. I'm sure every single PBR rider knows that some people don't like them and some people do like them. That's just the way it is. That's just the way every sport is.
I'm sure if a guy can take a horn from a bull, they will probably be ok even if they do see that some people aren't fans of them.
So in my opinion, if you don't cheer for some people, speak up about it. Who cares who sees it? That's what message boards are obviously for. I'm not one to shy away from stating opinions.

There are riders that I don't care for personally, but I still respect them because they have all worked so hard to get where they are at. For that should be given respect. Well its not that I dont want to offend some of the riders (since I have been around a number of them) I really dont care, the guys I dont care for, I have told to their faces, and it doesnt have to do for how well they ride but merely their attitudes in and out of the arena. It's for these reasons, those guys who have the I am holy then thou attitude. There are alot of kids who look up to us as role models, they copy our every move so when you act like your are better then others those kids act like that. Sorry the mother in me is coming out but one day soon my son is going to be old enough to understand and is going to look up to some of these guys as a role model and I do not want to act like some pompass jerk and think he is better then someone else because he wont be. We are all human, we have our good days and our bad days, and we all make mistakes. Dont get me wrong I dont be little anyone for working hard. Work hard and have a good attitude to go with it. I guess that is why I hope my son will be like Lee (Akin) and Mike Lee (just to throw out some names). Okay I will get off of my soap box now. ~Kari |

Something about him.. Carrillos - They run their hand way over to the right, its no mystery why they buck off often. "Get him off my legs guys", I dont like that either. |

I agree with you on Adriano. It's not that I don't like him or respect him I just don't like his style. At least IMO. God Bless Well, like mlm18 said, it's not that I don't like some of them, it's just that I definitely don't want certain riders to ride their bulls. I don't have anything against them, I just don't really care to watch them.
