T he world is just a little bit a lesser placethis week. This comes as news that oneof the stalwarts of team roping in

New Mexico lost his battle against cancer.Crespin Padilla left us this week, and NONE of us are better for it.

I have particular disdain for those who try to elevate someone after they’ve gone. Theinsincerity of it seems insulting to those whoknow the truth, and I think disrespects thememory of the person who has passed. In short,if you’ve spent your life walking around being adirty, rotten, bastard… dying doesn’t change thefacts. In those cases, I think it’s just best not tosay much at all.

That’s not the case concerning Crespin…Over the past couple of days I’ve spent a

good deal of time thinking about Crespin, andthe one thing that always happens is that I findmyself smiling a lot… even fighting back a littlechuckle. Crespin Padilla was truly one of a kind.No doubt, everyone who knew him has a Crespinstory that makes them laugh. His personality,combined with the simplistic way he approachedeverything in his life was enviable.

Though simplistic he may have been, simplehe was not. Inside that affable, sometimesseemingly confused exterior, was a man that Iknew to be not only deep of thought, butremarkably intelligent. Knowing he could usually

catch me in the predawn hours at my desk, hewould often call me and comment on the latest“Competitorial.” Sometimes he would tell me Iwas full of it, but most of the time he wouldstart the conversation the same way, “RobinDavis…. (long pause)… I just nearly fell out ofmy chair laughing.” …and off he would gofrom there.

Not more than a month ago, I got the last calllike that from him, “You hit it dead on thenose!” his first words screamed through thephone. I’m going to miss those conversations.We would talk on a variety of subjects, somebest not repeated, and you’d better know whatyou were talking about and you better be able tomake a sound argument if it was contrary to his.I doubt he had much formal education, but hewas not only intelligent, he was articulate andinformed as well.

I have no idea how many years Crespin andhis “Oasis Productions” produced team ropingevents around the state of New Mexico.Certainly as long as I can remember, maybe 30years or more… and I’ll venture a bet that in allthat time he never had more than about five setsof steers. No question about it, Crespin had away of making steers last. Though I didn’t makea lot of his ropings, I’m pretty damned sure Ihad the pleasure of roping the same steer four

Sparky has a new inexpensive way to train yourhorses and practice tie down roping. The new Sparky calf sled can be pulled behind

a 4 wheeler or any type of pulling unit. You get the same practice as with live calves but not thelivestock up-keep and cost. The Sparky calf tie down will give your horse a jerk when it is ropedand releases from the sled. You can run your rope, pick up the calf and tie it. The legs are springloaded for gathering them. The front left leg has a loose hock joint to press straight for tying.The calf body is 75 Ibs. and it comes with a bladder for more body weight. Body and legs aremade from a plastic rubber material that is flexible and very durable.

Shane Erickson showed up at the RamNational Circuit Finals Rodeo as a bit

of an unknown quantity. That’s no longerthe case.

The Columbia River Circuit cowboystood tall when the spotlight shinedbrightest and walked off with all-aroundhonors, the team roping title (with JadeCorkill) and a prize money total of $25,502that broke both the RNCFR all-around andoverall records.

It was nearly a $3,000 improvement onthe overall record of $22,598, set by J.W.Harris in the 2009 bull riding competition.

“It’s been a great week, kind of a dreamcome true, especially to win as much as Idid,” said the soft-spoken, 32-year-oldErickson. “A lot of people don’t really knowme, so I wanted to do well here this week.”

Erickson also earned third-place money in the tie-down roping whileimpressing fans and announcers with hisskill and professionalism in both events.That didn’t change Erickson’s humbledemeanor, though.

“I had the best heeler in the world,” hesaid, “so I just had to do my job.”

Corkill, the reigning world championheeler, was competing at the RNCFR forthe first time. It was also the first time he’d


roped with Erickson, who was making hissixth RNCFR appearance.

“Shane ropes really good, so I didn’thave to change anything,” Corkill said. “Weimproved each round – we had our besttime in the semifinals (5.0 seconds) – andgot to go last in the final round, which is abig advantage, especially when two guysmissed in front of us.”

Champions in the seven events eachearned $5,484 in the final round, except forbareback rider Bobby Mote of the ColumbiaRiver Circuit, who split first- and second-place money with Jared Keylon of thePrairie Circuit. Mote was the first championcrowned after a sensational re-ride thatscored 87 points to tie Keylon. Mote wasdeclared the winner because he had a higher score in the semifinals, which is thefirst tiebreaker.

It was the second time in three years thatMote had won the RNCFR in that fashion.He tied with Kaycee Feild in the 2011 final,but claimed the title bywinning the semifinalround, just as he didthis time around.

Every eventchampion also receiveda $20,000 voucher touse toward the purchaseof a new Ram truck.

Bull ridingchampion John Young –who pocketed $17,962for the week – was theonly cowboy to ridethree bulls during thecompetition. The GreatLakes Circuit’s rising

star watched his three competitors in thefinals get bucked off before he climbed inthe chute. Young, a 19-year-old sophomoreat Iowa Central Community College in FortDodge, stayed aboard to claim the victory.

“This is, for sure, the most excited I’veever been,” Young said. “I can’t even tellyou how excited I am.”

Young, who is rodeoing on his PRCApermit, has aspirations of qualifying for theWrangler National Finals Rodeo in 2014,and someday earning the title of worldchampion. But first, he has a different taskimmediately on the horizon. “I’ve got to goto school all week,” he said.

No such problem for steer wrestlingchampion Ethen Thouvenell of theCalifornia Circuit, although he probablyneeded to win at the RNCFR more thananybody. “I was going home to get a job,because I was dead broke,” he said with abig smile. “This is a big relief. I can pay mybills now.”

Bobby Mote shares the win in the Barebackriding event, but earned the Ram NationalCircuit Finals title with a higher marked score in the semifinals

Ram National Circuit Finals Rodeo All-Around champion, Shane Erickson also claimed the teamroping title with Jade Corkill and earned money in the Tie-Down roping.

The first three-time winner of the Ram National Circuit Finals, MattShiozawa claimed the Tie-Down roping title


Thouvenell had a lightning-quick run of3.5 seconds in the finals to earn thechampionship. He had earlier broken theRNCFR record with a 3.2-second run in thesecond round; it was a tenth of a secondquicker than Stockton Graves managed inthe first round of the 2011 event.

Matt Shiozawa of the Wilderness Circuitclaimed the tie-down roping championshipin 9.0 seconds. He’s now the first three-timewinner of the RNCFR in that event and thefirst tie-down roper to win back-to-backtitles at the RNCFR since D.R. Daniel ofthe Southeastern Circuit (1987-88). “I lovethis rodeo, this tournament style,” he said.

Curtis Garton of the SoutheasternCircuit – by way of Kaitaia, New Zealand –took the saddle bronc riding honors with 86points in the finals. “I am stoked,” he said.“This is one of the biggest rodeos in thenation, right after the (Wrangler) NFR.”

Defending barrel racing championBrittany Pozzi of the Texas Circuit was arepeat winner with a 15.35-second run, afteralso recording the fastest semifinaltime of 15.48. She’s also a two-time world champion.

The Texas Circuit topped theRNCFR team standings ($81,545)– its 11th win in the event’s 27years – followed by the ColumbiaRiver Circuit ($73,696),Wilderness Circuit ($66,132),Turquoise Circuit ($65,446) andPrairie Circuit ($52,992).

The top stock awards went toCarr Pro Rodeo’s Dirty Jacket(bareback riding), Powder RiverRodeo’s Miss Chestnut (saddlebronc riding) and Southwick’sRocky Mountain Rodeo’s Leon(bull riding).

On October 30, 1936, sixty-onemen signed a simple piece of

paper which turned out to be a historicdocument and a cornerstone in thefoundation of professional rodeo. Thedocument simply states: “For the BostonShow, we the undersigned demand thatthe Purses be doubled and the EntranceFees added in each and every event. AnyContestant failing to sign the Petitionwill not be permitted to contest, byorder of the undersigned.”After presenting the signed petition

to Col. William T. Johnson(producer/stock contractor for theBoston Garden Show), he told them,“Strike and be damned.” Those men didindeed strike and refused to compete atthat night’s performance—hoping theirdemands were met. While it was a littleshaky at times, the cowboys andJohnson finally got together on anagreement. Shortly thereafter, thecowboys gathered around and formedthe Cowboy Turtles Association(predecessor to the Professional RodeoCowboy Association or PRCA). Therest, as they say, is history.The cowboys originally called

themselves “Turtles” because they hadbeen slow to stick their necks out andget started. Someone had to be firsteven to “stick their neck out” and sign

Story and PhotosCompliments ofJim Olson

Everett ShawFirst on the List

of his first world title, the 1945 singlesteer roping title. He won six world steer roping world titles over aseventeen-year period thereafter (1945,‘46, ‘48, ‘51, ‘59 and ‘62) and during aperiod from 1945 to ’65 he finished inthe top five in the world fifteen out oftwenty-one seasons. From the time he entered his first

rodeo to the last world title was awhopping thirty-six years! He remainedcompetitive at the professional level forover forty years! Shaw even competedactively until eventually winning his lastroping event in 1977 at the age of sixty-nine! He then retired to his ranch nearStonewall, Oklahoma.In an old newspaper interview, when

asked about his longevity in rodeo,Everett said, “...once saw a rodeo andgot the bug. Thirty years later—I stillgot the bug.”Shaw won most of his

championships on a bay horse namedPeanuts who was Hancock bred. Well-known for his horse training abilities,Everett had been hired by Fred Lowry to train the horse. However, he was so

the petition, that fateful October day inBoston, before others would follow. Theman whose name appears very first onthat list is none other than Everett Shaw.Born June 7, 1908, in Hogshooter

Creek, Oklahoma, Shaw was known asone of the best single steer ropingcompetitors in rodeo history. He startedout however, as primarily a calf roper in1926 at Nowata, Oklahoma at his firstrodeo. His first major win at theprofessional level came in the calfroping event at Tulsa, Oklahoma in1932. He won Madison Square Garden,considered the World Championshiprodeo of the day, in ’34, ‘36 and ’39 as acalf roper. Throughout the late 1920s till the

early 1940s, he competed in both calfroping and steer roping. Sometime inthe early ‘40s, however, Shaw decided tofocus mainly on single steer roping. Atan age when many professional ropersare winding downtheir careers, Shawwho was in his latethirties hit full stride.It began with the win



impressed with Peanuts that he boughtthe horse instead. He paid $2,000 for the horse, an amazing sum of moneyback then. It was not money ill-spenthowever as Peanuts and Shaw ropedtogether for about sixteen years and theduo won most of Shaw’s steer ropingtitles together. Peanuts is now honoredat the National Cowboy and WesternHeritage Museum on the Trail of GreatCow Ponies.

So, how did Everett’s name happenfirst on that historic strike documentfrom 1936? Was he the first to stand up,the most vocal and passionate aboutwhat it represented? Probably not. Washe arbitrarily picked by accident becausehe was close at hand once it was typedup? Maybe. There is only one man leftalive at the time of this writing who wasactually there when it all happened.When asked what he remembered aboutEverett signing the document, hecouldn’t recall the exact details, butLouis Bowman did say, “Everett wasone hell of a roper and horse trainer. He

was quiet and unassuming in hisleadership role. He led by example andwas a great representative of rodeo.”

While we may never know for surehow he became first on the list, what wedo know is that Everett Shaw was asolid supporter of rodeo and itsfledgling organization. He signed upwith the “Turtles” and was given cardnumber seven, indicating he was theseventh member of what is now thePRCA. He also was the very first calfroping director for the organization andwas on the executive committee. In all,Shaw spent twenty years on the board ofthe Turtles and its successor, the RodeoCowboys Association (RCA), whichlater became the PRCA. In fact, whenthe Turtles reorganized in 1945 tobecome the RCA, it is said that Shawplayed a major part in the event. Later inlife, he was in high demand as a rodeojudge because of his honest ways. Heeven judged the National Finals Rodeo(NFR) while it was in Oklahoma City.

“Buy, Sell, Trade”

February 13, 1936. That act made him abrother in-law to none other than DickTruitt, the 1939 World Champion SteerRoper who was a mentor to Shaw on therodeo circuit in his early days.Eventually, the Shaws had a daughter,Mary Sue Shaw, who married anotherrodeo cowboy, Sonny Worrell of Kansasin 1957. All three men are now in theRodeo Hall of Fame at Oklahoma City.Shaw and his extended family representquite a family of rodeo cowboys!

In May 1979 the Oklahoma StateSenate passed a special resolutioncommending Everett as one ofOklahoma’s greatest cowboys. He hadbecome a living legend. Shaw wasinducted into the ProRodeo Hall ofFame in 1979, and the National Cowboy & Western Heritage MuseumRodeo Hall of Fame in 1980. OnNovember 11, 1979, the great EverettShaw passed away due to complicationsfrom heart surgery.

ACTRA National News


Pasture roping is certainly not for thefaint of heart. Rather than the

tightly controlled conditions of an arena,the Mike White Pasture Roping is held ina 35-acre pasture with a 100' head startfor the steer. It can, and usually does, geta little “Western.”“I always wanted to have a pasture

roping,” explains retired PBR bull rider,Mike White. “It levels the playing fieldand gives guys a chance to becompetitive against open ropers. Youreally have to be able to ride your horseand handle a cow in the field. In thepasture a steer can really duck and dive.It’s very entertaining to watch.”Each year, on Easter weekend, Mike

and Hannah White have friends andfamily who come from as far as NorthCarolina and Lake Charles, Louisiana, tohelp out with this growing event. Everydollar of the proceeds is donated tobenefit children in need. This yearproceeds were donated to Ropin' Dreams, a non-profit organization thathelps make dreams come true forseriously ill children.The inspiration for this event occurred

in 2004. There was a child in St. JudesHospital in Memphis, Tennessee, whowanted to meet the famous bull rider,Mike White. The PBR asked Mike if hewould go visit, so Mike and Hannahplanned the trip and envisioned visitingfor less than an hour.“I didn’t really plan on staying long,

it’s hard to spend a lot of time withsomeone you don’t know,” says White. “I left after three and a half hours. Weplayed bucking bulls on his bed allafternoon. I left there a changed person.It totally changed the way I looked at life. I’ve always said ‘If you think you’re a man who won’t cry, visit achildren’s hospital’.“I’ve been very blessed. My kids are

healthy and I’ve had a great career. Thisbenefit is something that needs to bedone. We raise money for the kids whodon’t have our opportunities in life.”The Mike White Pasture Roping is a

family event where folks camp out, swapstories and enjoy the many food vendors.There’s goat roping for the kids, and anEaster egg hunt with prizes that includetwo four-wheelers and two batteryoperated cars for the little tykes.

Friday morning started with the All-Girl pasture roping where the steers havea fifty-foot head start. Forty-three teamscompeted with Amy Fathruckner andJayme Marcrum emerging the winnerswith a time of 43.42-seconds on two-head, earning $761 each, Roper Bucklesand Fast Back jackets. Second place wasHannah White and Whitney Desalvo witha time of 19.12 on one head and earning$456 each. Third place was RobinBenson and Jayme Marcrum, 21.49 onone head, earning $304 each.Friday evening the action moved to

Texarkana for the Mike WhiteInvitational PBR Bull Riding followed bya concert by Bart Crow.On Saturday morning, the Open to the

World Pasture Roping, was postponed forclose to an hour due to rain. 290 teamscompeted in the three-head progressive

roping for $150 per team entry fees. Halfway through the first round, ropers andspectators took cover due to a severeweather alert. Soon after, rain, straight-line winds, and hail prevailed for overfifteen minutes. As soon as the skycleared the roping resumed. The cowboys thought it was awesome and the soupy conditions made for some good watching.Todd Trammell and Dustin Morgan

were the 2013 champions with a time of43.26 on three head. The pair eachearned $5,041 and a Coats saddle. Theremaining average winners were asfollows: 2. Kipp Harrell/SpencerMitchell, 44.11, $3,361 ea; 3. JeffHilton/Tommy Zuniga 44.18, $2,598; 4.Joel Bach/Tommy Zuniga 44.19, $1,833;5. Waylon Davis/Dakota Kirchenschlager44.44, $1,375; 6. Tee Luttrell/JodyPadilla 45.86, $1,069.Tyler Wade earned the top “hard luck”

prize of a rifle from Rocky Mountain ElkFoundation. Dakota Kirchenschlager wassecond in the hard luck division and wona pair of spurs.“Our whole family, plus many friends,

help out. Without such a giving familyand great friends this event would not bewhat it is today. We have come a longway in the last four years,” says WendyLaVergne, Mike’s sister and Director ofthe event. “Giving back is what God hascalled each and every one of us to do. Weare very blessed to be a part of all thesechildren’s lives.”The Mike White Roping team would

like to thank the following sponsors: FastBack Ropes, Wrangler, Bloomer Trailers,Johnny On the Spot, State Bank ofDeKalb, USTRC, Reliance Ranches,Lone Star Ag Credit, DeKalb Chamber ofCommerce, Priefert Ranch, Bates FuneralHome, Tucker Feed, Golden Oil, FrontStreet Junction, Southwest ArkansasEquipment, United Country, LivestockNutrition Center, Wilcox Water, ElliottDodge Ford, Texar FCU, Double K FarmEquipment, Backus – B Ranch, DeKalbPhysicians Clinic, Rocky Mountain ElkFoundation, DeKalb IndustrialFoundation, Bowie County Equipment,FlatCreek Timberland Logging.For more information visit

Five of the 10 men who entered theBuilt Ford Tough Championship

Round on Sunday afternoon had gone 3-for-3 on the weekend, but only oneman was perfect throughout the entireevent. Rookie Joao Ricardo Vieira wasthe only man to cover all four of his bullsfor 353.25 points to win the 17th AnnualTy Murray Invitational presented bySandia Resort & Casino. It was the firstBFTS win of Vieira’s PBR career.Vieira selected Smackdown (Dakota

Rodeo/Chad Berger/Clay Struve) for hischampionship round ride and turned inthe high-marked ride of the weekend at92.25 points. He entered the round inthird place behind fellow countrymanEmilio Resende and defending eventchampion J.B. Mauney.“I knew I had a good ride, at least 90

points or more,” Vieira said. “That bull isvery hard to ride, he’s strong. He madeone big jump and turned into my handand I had to work very hard to stay onthat bull.“Of course I’m very happy to win. I

came here feeling strong. I’m ready tocome back at the next event and do itagain,” said 2013 Ty Murray InvitationalPRB Event Champion.This event win significantly

decreased the gap between EduardoAparecido, the leader in the 2013 Rookieof the Year race, and Vieira. Entering theevent, Vieira was 777.78 points behindand now trails Aparecido by less than300 points in the race for the Rookie ofthe Year title.Of the five men who had covered

three bulls, four were Brazilians,Resende, the reigning rookie of the year,Vieira, Aparecido and Fabiano Vieira.Mauney was the fifth man. Mauneylooked sharp on the weekend. When hecovered Hell Pony (JD Nix RodeoCo./Shawn Davis) in Round 3 for 88points to take the event lead, a repeatfrom the 2012 event seemed like a goodpossibility. He entered the championshipround in second, 1.25 points behindResende. Mauney drew Meat Hook (Jeff

Robinson/Bar 3D Bucking Bulls), whohe had covered earlier this year, but thisafternoon the matchup yielded a differentresult. He was bucked to the ground andended the event third overall behindVieira and Resende.The race for the PBR World

Championship title took a turn during theTy Murray Invitational, seeing ShaneProctor slip from the top position andMarco Eguchi take the top rung. Proctorwent 0-for-3 for the event; Eguchi was 1-for-3, opting not to compete Sundayafter suffering an injury to his ridinghand in earlier rounds. His 85 points atop Hart/Switchhouse/Plummer’s MiseryBusiness on Friday was enough, however, to overcome the 21 points hetrailed Proctor entering the weekend andmove him into first place in the overallworld standings.Silvano Alves, who also went 1-for-3

this weekend, remains in third withMauney closing the gap in fourth andJordan Hupp in fifth.In bovine action the streak is still

alive. Bushwacker tossed his 40thcowboy and captured the Pabst BlueRibbon High-Marked Bull Award for thefifth time this season, scoring 47.25points. Billy Robinson selectedBushwacker as his final round bull, butcould only handle him for 2.58 seconds.After the ride Robinson said, “I was

so far down in the points in the round, I needed a bull I could be a bunch ofpoints on to win. He’s the best bull in theworld, so I figured what better bull topick to try to come out on top. He’s a great bull. He stands in the buckingchutes just as calm as any bull could. But when they open the gate he lets youknow he’s all there.”

years apart… and I have to say, that steerwas just as good the last time as he wasthe first time… and the same size, too.

One time, he ended up owing me somemoney on a deal and fessed up that hedidn’t have any way to pay me back. Hetold me he’d like to trade it out in a steerlease. He said he had a nice little set ofsteers he could bring me for a few monthsand we could square up that way.

I wasn’t there when he dropped themoff at my arena…

Let’s just say that I figured out that by“nice little set of steers” he meant “little”as in the size of the set, not the steers. Ilaugh thinking about it… they were thedefinition of “hogs”… would barely fitthrough the chute. I think I roped themabout twice in three months when I calledhim up and told him we were square andhe could “come get em’.” In a day or twohe was there to load them up, and after achastising for getting them too fat, heinvited me over to rope at his housesometime and off he went in that one-of-a-kind, green and white truck that heseemed to have forever. That was Crespin.

Though he never looked to have much,he was happy as a lark and thankful for

everything he had. His outfit and thefamous Oasis Arena looked like it wasstraight out of an Ace Reed cartoon. Still,it always seemed like he was helping outothers. Tough and weathered on theoutside, his was a gentle soul. Seemedlike he was always toting around someorphaned puppy, or finding a way to puttogether a benefit roping for someone in need.

But most treasured to him was his littlegirl. Though I have not seen her in years,and not sure how she survived him, healways told me how proud he was of her.When last we talked, he told me how wellshe was doing in college and I wasn’tsurprised. Raising a little girl by yourselfwithin the confines of his lifestyle,couldn’t have been easy. I’ve seen himsternly set her straight more than once,but in the next moment dote on her likeonly a father can. He loved her… andmade sure everyone around knew it.

For me, the measure of someone’s lifeis pretty simple. Everything aside, it’s thenet affect you leave on the people aroundyou. So… as I said… the world is a littlebit of a lesser place without CrespinPadilla, and NONE of us are betterwithout him.

… God speed, my friend.

Team Roping Justin Davis, of Madisonville, Texas,

and Clay Cooper, of Gardnerville, Nev.,just started roping together this winter,but their success does not show it. In 5.6 seconds, they tied with TrevorBrazile and Patrick Smith in the Shoot-Out Round.

RodeoHouston three times prior, butmanaged a score of 91 in the ShootoutRound to clench the Championship titleand $62,000. After coming off a recentinjury, he impressed with a first placeride in each night of the Super Series he rode.

“I knew the horse I drew and I knewthat if you were going to win the $50,000

that was the one you needed,” he said. Itworked out well for Sundell.

Steer Wrestling K.C. Jones, of Decatur, Texas,

bulldogged his way to another saddle and buckle for his collection with a 5.4-second run in steer wrestling. As thechampion, he earned an accumulated$53,950 from the 2013 RodeoHoustonBP Super Series.

her competition by one, one hundredth of asecond, with a final time of 14.40 seconds.Hunter has been at RodeoHouston before,but never made it past the first round.Now, she has the title and $53,000.

Bull Riding J.W. Harris grew up around rodeo,

watching his dad ride bulls. He found his own passion for the sport and rode it all the way to the bank when he won the BP Super Series Bull RidingChampionship and a $56,300 paycheckwith an 89-point ride.

Cloud, Olney Share XtremeBulls CrownWhen Howdy Cloud left Fort Mohave,

Arizona for some R&R in Las VegasSaturday night, he figured there was“absolutely zero chance” that the lead heshared with Cheyne Olney at the FortMohave Classic PRCA Xtreme Bulls eventwould hold up to get them the win.“I mean, I thought we had a decent

shot at winning the first round (they eachhad 89-point rides),” Cloud said, “but wewere bucked off in the short go and Ifigured that someone was sure to get oneridden in the finals on Sunday.”Or not.The bulls went 20-0 in the short round

of this $54,050 event on March 23-24 andall of a sudden those 89-pointers onopening night turned out to have a silverlining for Cloud and Olney. They eachearned checks for $11,450, with $7,162 ofthat coming from the wholly unexpectedaverage wins.It was the first Xtreme Bulls Tour event

without a qualified ride in the finals sinceJordan Hooton won in Bremerton, Wash.,in August 2009 – coincidentally with an89-point ride in the first round.This was also the first tie in an Xtreme

Bulls Tour event since Stormy Wing andClayton Williams tied in Bremerton in


2010 and just the second in the 11-yearhistory of the series.“It’s not very usual,” Cloud said in a

fine bit of understatement. “It didn’t seem like any of us had much luck in theshort go.”Cloud got his share of the win by

riding Bar T Rodeo’s Big Shoes for 89points and Olney equaled that score onBurns Rodeo Company’s Kid Twist, a bullthat helped Seth Glause win a check inRound 10 of the 2011 Wrangler NationalFinals Rodeo.“I’d never seen (Big Shoes) before,”

Cloud said. “The stock contractor (JeffFlitton) said he was a nice little black bull

that would probably get me around 82points and qualify me for the short go. Heturned out to be a bit better than that. Hehad a good day.”In retrospect, you’d have to say he had a

great day, a nice surprise leading to an evenbetter surprise a day later.

Dear NMRA Members —One of my primary responsibilities as president is to serve as the

enforcement person for our rule book. Enforcement and collection offines for rule infractions is necessary to preserve fairness to all, I getthat… but having to do it still stinks sometimes, especially when it isa young person who simply made a mistake. But, there are thosefolks who somehow believe that the rules don’t apply to them andthat they can disrespect our rules at will… it doesn’t bother me somuch to enforce the rules then.

I attended a team roping in Bernalillo this last weekend and itwas nice to be able to compete without having to deal with amultitude of NMRA issues. The first day not one word was saidabout the NMRA, the second day, however, was different. I had aconversation with a member about the fact that I allowed a late entryin the team roping at the Membership Drive Rodeo. The individualwho I had allowed to enter late was in attendance at the roping thatday and interestingly enough when he was pointed out to me Iimmediately noticed he was the only person in the barn wearing a T-shirt. I wondered to myself if there was a dress code with thisassociation or if Pop culture had invaded yet another Western event.

Well, karma must have really been working that day because Iwas sitting there on my horse minding my own business when the T-shirt guy rolled up next to me. A third young man was just aboutto ride into the box when T-shirt man told him, “Take your ball capoff or they will flag you out.” Well, me being who I am, I could notresist, so I commented to T-shirt man, “So, you can’t wear a ball capbut you can wear a T-shirt at these deals?” T-shirt man said, “What’swrong with my shirt,” to which I commented, “It’s not Westernattire.” What he said next was possibly one of the dumbeststatements I have ever heard uttered out of a human’s mouth. “This isnot a Western event. I snowboard, play golf, smoke weed and team

rope. This is not a Western event.” I cracked up… the sheerignorance and arrogance of such a comment was entertaining to besure, but also the more I thought about it, troubling as well.

I read Robin Davis’s last article and I happen to agree with him. Iunderstand that I may be in the minority these days but I haverefused to tweet or Facebook and texting, although I do it, really isannoying to me. So, when pop culture and our Western heritagecollide… as far as I am concerned, it becomes a respect issue.Respect our Western heritage or leave… there is no gray area in mybook and I will not apologize for my position on that.

I began looking around at all the other contestants at this ropingand you will be happy to hear that our Western heritage is alive andwell. Hats, boots, long-sleeved collared shirts and several guys ridingaround with tie strings on their saddles were the majority inattendance. Apparently this is a choice at these events because noneof them were wearing T-shirts… electing instead to respect those thatcame before us and paved the way. In sharp contrast and ultimatelyto my amusement, later in the day I looked up to see T-shirt manriding in close proximity to Walter Arnold (world champion WalterArnold for those of you who don’t know him.) Mr. Arnold wasdressed appropriately. So, I stopped and thanked God for legendslike him and the sacrifices people like him have made so that wemay live the lives we do now.

What’s the point? We do have a dress code rule in the NMRAand while I was powerless to do anything about the team ropingevent I attended, I am not powerless in the NMRA. Leave your T-shirts and ball caps in the truck… and your weed… when you areheaded toward the NMRA arena floor this year. Because of T-shirtman I have re-dedicated myself to living by the rules.

— Thank You, John Adams

Ihad the reputation of beingsomewhat of a “picky eater” as a

child. I would say that on average mymother uttered to me at least twice aday, “There are children starving inAfrica who would love that food you aretrying to hide from me with yournapkin. Now clean up your plate.”Believe me, if I could have afforded theUPS or FedEx charges I would havegladly shipped those starving kids inAfrica my mother’s creamed corn,lasagna, Lima beans, liver and onions

my large and delicious pretzel?” To which the so called “hungry” man

replied, “No thanks. I’m a vegetarian.” Even that homeless guy doesn’t take

home the prize as being the pickiesteater on the planet. Awhile back I wasvisiting with my friend TonyBranquinho. If the name sounds familiar it might be because his brotherLuke has been the World Championsteer wrestler several times now. Tonywas telling me about John W. Jones, Jr.who was also a World Champion steerwrestler three times, not to be confusedwith his father, John W. Jones, who alsowon the buckle as World ChampionSteer Wrestler.

It just so happens that the Jones’Ranch is only one ranch away from aranch I leased for many years. As aneighbor, let me tell you, the Joneses areWorld Champion people too. The closestI’ve ever been to the flame of fame wasthe night I was given the responsibilityof holding Katie Jones’ sister Shannonwhile Katie sang the National Anthemin front of a packed house at the NFR inVegas. If I recall correctly, Katie wasfive years old at the time. Now she’s allgrown up and engaged to be married to Bear Pascoe, a great ranch kid andteam roper who plays football for the New York Giants.

But enough name dropping and backto my story about picky eaters.According to Tony, John W. Jones, Jr.saw a gap-toothed, poor-looking ladywith a dog by the side of the road andshe was holding a sign that said she washungry. Real hungry! John, being thegreat human that he is, drove up thehighway to the Burger King and boughther a Whopper or two and some fries.When the World Champion Good Guyreturned to the poor lady by the side ofthe road and handed her the free feastTony says she took one look at the bagand said in a condescending manner... “I don’t eat fast food.”

And you thought I was a picky eater!

and corned beef and cabbage. Although I really doubt if they’d have

eaten it either. Eggs are my all-time least-favorite

food and my mom was always trying tosneak them in on me, like in Frenchtoast or cake batter. But an egg is an eggand I could smell one a mile away.Every time she’d serve one I’dinnocently ask, “Do you know wherethat egg has been?” Or, “Do you knowwhat orifice of the chicken that eggcame out of?” Comments like thatruined the dining experience foreveryone and I think by the time I lefthome I’d almost convinced my mom thateggs were the Devil’s doing.

I didn’t even like my mom’s famousapple pie, and believe me, my mother’spies were known far and wide for theirgoodness. It’s just that I subscribe to thatold cowboy adage, “Tromp on my cornsand tell me lies, just don’t pass me noapple pies.”

It wasn’t that my mother was tryingto feed me universally recognized yucky food like rack of raccoon, or filet of Fido fondue. No, my mom wasa fabulous cook. It’s just that I’ve always had a highly sophisticated palatewith a refined sense of good taste.Although, I must admit, she didn’t buythat line of BS either. But recently Idiscovered I’m not near the picky eaterthat some folks are.

My wife’s best friend Vicki told usabout a recent experience in which sheand her beautiful daughter Erin wereeating large pretzels dipped in mustardfor lunch. To which I say, “Yuck!” Vickihad half of a large pretzel left in herdoggy bag when she passed a homelessperson. Vicki, being the sweetheart thatshe is said, “Would you like the rest of
