...and hates Euro Cycling. I wanted to watch the Tour De Flanders on OLN. Lance was in the race (important for the Only Lance Network) and actually had an impact on the race, but they only showed it once, right in the middle of the day when I was out for a ride.

On the other hand, there is 5 hours of rodeo tonight, including 1 replay. Yeah for horses. Bad for bicyclists.

OLN network is lame, except when it doesn't show hunting shows and rodeos.



So it's pretty much lame all the time

I have known a few people to go. Always a good time, even for those who hate stampedes.

The funniest storey I heard was from a gay guy who went...to shorten the storey have you seen the king of the hill episode where dad was gay at a stampede..I never thought that a gay stampede would exist.

At least it doesn't show poker, pool, darts, curling, lawn bowling and golf. Only real sports stations show those ;)...(making serious fun of tsn in canada)

His eyes are cold and restless
His wounds have almost healed
And she'd give half of Texas
Just to change the way he feels
She knows his love's in Tulsa
And she knows he's gonna go
Well it ain't no woman flesh and blood
It's that damned old rodeo

Well it's bulls and blood
It's dust and mud
It's the roar of a Sunday crowd
It's the white in his knuckles
The gold in the buckle
He'll win the next go 'round
It's boots and chaps
It's cowboy hats
It's spurs and latigo
It's the ropes and the reins
And the joy and the pain
And they call the thing rodeo

She does her best to hold him
When his love comes to call
But his need for it controls him
And her back's against the wall
And it's So long girl I'll see you
When it's time for him to go
You know the woman wants her cowboy
Like he wants his rodeo

Well it's bulls and blood
It's dust and mud
It's the roar of a Sunday crowd
It's the white in his knuckles
The gold in the buckle
He'll win the next go 'round
It's boots and chaps
It's cowboy hats
It's spurs and latigo
It's the ropes and the reins
And the joy and the pain
And they call the thing rodeo
It'll drive a cowboy crazy
It'll drive the man insane
And he'll sell off everything he owns
Just to pay to play her game
And a broken home and some broken bones
Is all he'll have to show
For all the years that he spent chasin'
This dream they call rodeo

Well it's bulls and blood
It's dust and mud
It's the roar of a Sunday crowd
It's the white in his knuckles
The gold in the buckle
He'll win the next go 'round
It's boots and chaps
It's cowboy hats
It's spurs and latigo
It's the ropes and the reins
And the joy and the pain
And they call the thing rodeo

It's the broncs and the blood
It's the steers and the mud
And they call the thing rodeo--waaattt-wowwwaaaaa!!!!
:cool:
