Why is he just now suing? I thought this was over and done with several months ago. I was surprised to see that he is suing at this point.

smak - 2016-02-25 8:21 AM There were actually 2 "pros" and 2 guys who could go for the million. One of the guys who could go for the million declined the "pros" offer and told the one he needed to take Jesus off his shirt. It was not a good deal at all!
Wow, that is interesting.  I wonder how you could prove it though unless money exchanged hands.  And if it did exchange hands, how in the world could you think you could get away with it.
Lots of people heard the conversation. But that is still here say. Although nothing surprises me with the one. He's a squid. No matter how good of a roper he is and no matter how God fearing he appears to the general public.

I guess from reading that you must have been down there.

That is way cool, and had to be pretty intense. 

Congrats

What was "over and done with"? And what decision was made?
Did the steer wrestler have to sue to get his money?

NJJ - 2016-02-25 10:30 AM It has being reported that the money is frozen by a federal investigation regarding RICCO laws?  
^^This was what I heard. RFD-TV turned it over to the authorities to sort out. I'd think a year would be enough time to either charge them or pay them.....but you can't blame the delay all on RFD-TV, after they turned it over it was out of their hands.

We are talking about the federal government and the FBI so maybe his grandchildren will see some of the money.

I'm hot, about 2 things. A. You present your statement as fact, when I really doubt you could know, unless you were standing there and somehow INVOLVED, and B. You are in fact SAYING that Tuff Cooper was one of the pros. That's a pretty strong allegation, sir, or maam...I hope you know what you are talking about.

Did you watch the final round? Roy almost freaked out when Tuff didn't win the final round. The commentators asked Roy why Tuff used a double wrap when so much money was up and Roy said he didn't know, he said Tuff must have a reason, but he couldn't see it. He said it was uncharacteristic for Tuff to use 2 wraps when he was roping for so much money. While that is not proof, it is pretty ****ing and I must admit I immediately told my husband he just threw the roping. But I really don't think this something worth getting mad about.

Enough information is out there that it is not a tightly guarded secret about who was involved.

Fact: the Feds felt there was enough evidence that they are investigating the allegations.

Fact: Tuf was not invited back to The American this year.

Fact: while Tuf is a nice enough guy, a choir boy he is not.

just.... whoa....
Whoa at all the accusations and what could possibly be truth just blows my mind.... 

Why throw the roping to a non pro? Shouldn't the "Pro" be better than the non pro in theory? Why be so scared to lose that you throw the roping???

Dont think he was "not invited back"
They auctioned him off at the patch auction, and he is listed on the FB page as a qualifier from the NFR...

Guess I'll have to check my resources. I thought they drew him out. We will find out in a few days if he is or isn't there. I know in a 2015 interview with Randy Bernard, he said if the investigation found the allegations to be real, they would draw people out.

Guess this will be the drama/climax for the 2016 American.

It's all about marketing for The American and the ERA.  He has too many fans and most people don't have a clue what is going on so it's in their best interest to have him there.

Here you go..

Our #ERAAthletes were lucky to spend some time with young cowboy, Colton Workman! Many of our ERA Athletes, along with Colton were auctioned off for RFD-TV's #TheAmerican. Athletes such as Tuf Cooper, Trevor Brazile and Jade Corkill either matched his bid or donated their money to Colton's Anti Bullying Foundation, Saddle Up and together let's Reign in Bullying!

Wow I can't believe the attacks on someone's character is being allowed to go on. None of the allegations are proven, all just here say up to now. I thought this was against the BHW rules. I have had my hand slapped just on an opinion about who was chosen to ride a high dollar horse. I didn't attack anyone's character either.
