It's no wonder he can't ride bulls. But he can sling the bull just like ol' Largo, anyday. Sho' nuff.
I came across RW's article and then decided to go ahead and git some. Don't laugh, you might encourage him.

hilarious. I always thought that climber types -- not Largo-sized bodies, but emaciated, "small-boned" sport-climbing bodies -- would rock the PBR circuit. Combine POW-emaciated bodies with savage grip, and, well, you should have a champion.

But what are these "Friday blahs?" We need the facts, sir, just the facts, please. Is that a one-horned, white-hat-wearin' bully named Walling, or is it the NFL's finest? He don't look that stringy to me.

This post came with great timing. Below is the new, never see before video of Russ' latest rides just a few days ago in the Alabama Hills.
What the piece missed was tye report of costume change. It wasn't until his second ride that he out on a FISH shirt.

Whew, I'm going to go through the rest of the day not feeling like everyone
is looking at me like I'm some kind of world-class kook! Cause I'm clearly
second-rate.
So how come at the end of the above video the YouTube screen comes up with
some suggested videos the most a propos of which was "Moby Dick?"

. . . the old woman hiked up her dress to the navel and pulled a wad of bills from her control-top panties - a spot safer than Brinks.
It was only humorous until I got to that gem, I am still f*#king laughing. Thanks for posting, I missed this story the first time around, I was never a big R&I fan.
