I love watching bull riding, but it seems to me that the guys have gotten so good at it - it ain't like it was in my daddy's day
- that they're trying to make it harder. Like in gymnastics when the competitors got so much better than the judging, they started scoring perfect 10s one after the other, so they had to push back the goalposts.
Now, not only does the bullrider have to hangon for the 8 seconds, his style while he's riding is being judged AND how the bull bucks also counts. If the bull doesn't buck worth a darn, doesn't show some variety, they take off points!!
That seems like a pie-in-the-sky kind of judging criteria. How can the bullriders ever possibly control how the bull bucks?
