Location: Bastrop, Texas | I cringed when I saw that bull come down on the back of his head. Just because he was moving all 4 extremities doesn't mean he's out of the woods. Has anyone heard the latest? |

| That was scary, wish the bull riders would wear helmets. Shout out to the bull fighters, great job getting the bull away from him.

| Im surprised it's not been made mandatory for them to be wearing helmets! To each their own, and I wish all the luck and hope that God keeps them safe the remaining rounds! |

Location: Where the pavement ends and the West begins Utah | Those clowns were spot on... I'm really proud of how fast they removed that bull from the arena. I didn't see the bull hit until slow replay and someone yell he's out cold. Wish he would wear a helmet he is so accident prone. I don't think he'll ride tonight but I bet he will tomorrow. I know how that rung his bell. |

Location: WYOMING | Ive sat on one of those bulls IN THE CHUTE and that alone is terrifying!!! I can NOT imagine tying myself to one and turning it loose... but those boys are tough and thats "what they do".
Had a good friend that was a bull fighter when we were rodeoing.. he was a different breed all together. Very superstitious about how he prepared for the job. That there could be a reality show alone!!! |

Location: Bastrop, Texas | It sure looked to me like he lost consciousness. If he did, then I wouldn't let him ride for at least a week, regardless of MRI or CT findings. That's just me, though, and I am sure Dr Tandy is way more experienced than I am. In the NFL, he would be sidelined for a minimum of a week, I believe. |

Health wise yes he should probably be out but, the cowboys have no coaches or contracts. This is the biggest rodeo of the year for them and a way to finally get them in the black after hauling all year. |
