In reply to: Hap 's message, "I doubt he's quitting because he's afraid of getting hurt. Getting out of the hospital with a deflated lung and going to the finals and winning the first round proves that, not to mention the badly broken ankle the next year or so after that. He's as tough as i've seen and I've also heard he won't take even asprins. The guys you mention are the exception to the rule and more power to them. I've got a guy coming over every week and helping BB riders and he's 50 and still riding ammies. He's good with the kids and even tho he never became world famous, he can dang sure ride BB horses. I've been asked why he hangs around the ammies and the only answer I can give is because he wants to. Cody L. thinks guys are nuts to not come over to the PBR, but it's the same story, everybody needs to be comfortable in his own choices." on 11:14:34 10/22/08 Wed

I just found this quote in his retirement article...... ""Now I am in a position to go out while I'm healthy and still riding well. I mean you can get hurt crossing the street but there are more risks involved with bull riding. Now that I have a family and a child to think about, I want to be able to retire and enjoy my life with them and not be a crippled bull rider." (NT) -- Varmit, 15:51:02 10/22/08 Wed
