Injury Report

One of the scary parts of the injury report is that steer wrestler Jacob Talley may have a fractured shoulder. He hasn’t gone to Justin Sports Medicine because he’s worried they’ll medically disqualify him for the remainder of the NFR. Bull riders Trevor Kastner and Parker McCowan are both sitting the next two rounds of the National Finals Rodeo in order to get themselves a little bit healthier.

Pre-Show National Anthem

Typically during the grand entry, the cowboys all ride in and then tip the Resistol to the crowd before racing each other out of the arena. Tonight, they came in on foot and stood in salute to the National Anthem and they said that they did that as a way to give the attention to our country and our flag that isn’t getting that recognition in other mainstream sports.

While they didn’t make it clear as it was happening, we are thankful for the Cowboy Channel coverage that brought all of those stories out in the after show. They literally “took a stand” for what they believe in so major props to that.
