Kay, I just wanted to thank you for recommending “8 Seconds.” I’m not a great Luke Perry fan and can only take that Baldwin brother in small doses so I’d never seriously looked into seeing it. Plus Hollywood loves to pull out the violins and tug at heartstrings a bit much for me sometimes. But this movie was really good and I would have missed it except for you. ;)

I’m a big fan of PBR too, actually got to go to the World Finals in Las Vegas a couple of years ago and got a whole load of autographs. My 3 cowboy books for Virgin ‘Cheek’ also feature PBR and National rodeos association guys–yummy.

Yes, it’s a current release this month. I used to find these “Love Insipired” books in the inspirational section of my local Waldenbooks (which just closed – boo!). But they might also be in the categories.

Is this a recent release? My gran gets these books (my uncle used to ride rodeo, broncs & bulls so yes, we understand all too well watching him compete and worrying). I might have to pick this one up. :) Me, I’m far more partial to the steer wrestlers and ropers. But I’ll admit that I love watching the NFR so long as Cimmeron Gerke is riding bareback broncs. I think he’s like 9 years younger than I am. Yeah, that so makes me feel like a cougar. LOL! Rawr!

The answer to your question, Zoe, is NO. I say objectify away, girlfriend. And that is one fine man to watch…mmmm, mmmm.

@Jayne: Is it wrong to objectify those guys? My head says yes, but my eyes say no. Especially when Guillermo Marchi rides....

I’ve been looking at this movie and wondering if it would be too “heartwarming” in that cloying way Hollywood can do with movies. Thanks for the rec. I’ll give it a try.

Jayne:

If you haven’t added “8 Seconds” to your Netflix queue, do so. Great movie.

Oh I don’t see how the wives/mothers of these riders can be able to sit and watch the competition. I saw an interview with Justin McBride’s grandmother about the death of her husband while bullriding. He (McBride) just kind of sat there, a bit stunned, as he watched her get choked up about that past event and how much she worries about him, her grandson. This definitely seems to be a a young man’s sport and one that wears the men out quickly – something that’s mentioned here in the age of the hero, Clint.

I have two little boys, which is all the excuse I need to watch bullriding.

Love me some cowboys! Good heavens but they look good in their jeans.

But I’d never let my boys do it. I live in Texas and I know too many many with horrific injuries and scars from riding bulls.

Oh yes, I enjoy watching the cowboys before, during and after their bull rides! Guess that makes me a cougar too. And despite the awful injuries they sustain (just listen to Adriano Moraes point out all of his career injuries), they do have lovely physiques.

When we’re flipping around on the tv, and my husband settles on PBR, I generally don’t complain because I enjoy watching those tasty cowboys (even though I feel like a bit of a cougar for leering at them). But, have you seen the arms on those boys? Nom.
