The Worldwide Leader in Cowboys!



The 2009 Wrangler National Finals Rodeo is underway at UNLV's Thomas & Mack Arena in Las Vegas. You can watch it nightly on ESPN Classic at 9pm with replays on ESPN2.

Our little slice of North Texas produces more than it's share of outstanding cowboys. Decatur's own Trevor Brazile is on his way to a 7th All Around Cowboy Championship. That would tie him with Hall of Fame member Ty Murray (you know that guy in Stephenville married to the hot singer babe). Trevor didn't help himself finishing 13th in tie-down roping with a time of 23.80 seconds. Meanwhile, Tuf Cooper of Decatur turned in an 8 & 3. That's 8.30 seconds for you non-rodeo linguists. Don't make me tell you what a hooey is...

Weatherford's Bradley Harter is competing for his first Saddle Broc title. Also from Weatherford, Todd Suhn is back for his 13th NFR in Bulldogging. He's currently in 13th (go figure) with a time of 9 & 5. Somebody call Tom Hanks.

Complete round by round results can be found at prorodeo.com.
