They're required to give that rating before any program that has a chance of bloodshed occurring. They give the warning before an all bull riding event, or they're supposed to. Yet when they aired an all team roping not too long ago there was no parental guidance warning. So it has nothing to do with the animals, and everything to do with the riders. This is part of the rating system that started with Tipper Gore, for music , video games & TV. There was no real definable rating for before mentioned media, before that. On the same sort of note, if there is cussing or just hinting at sex they're also required to give a parental guidance warning. -- RODEO RAMBLINGS

I guess the reason I found it to be a surprise is the fact thats its the very first time I have ever seen it put up before a rodeo was broadcast. They got plenty of time to edit out any bloodshed, I looked at it more of like something an animal rights activist would like to see before each airing. But then maybe I am looking at it wrong or interpreting it wrong. Or maybe it was the fact my wife heard me say, What kind of crap is this?... when they put it up.
