That’s one of those tricks that doesn’t work nearly as well in practice as it does in theory.  I wondered if it did and watched pretty closely one year.  It’s easy to spot the guys that are trying it, their ag teacher/parent/jock hold them there waiting to jump in line like they’re merging onto...

2:15 mark - Who's the genius that decided they needed to blur the cow vagina?

Angus, Hereford, and Brahman you darn yankees.

I only say this because you said it twice now….it’s LaTech, not Monroe.  Monroe is the 7-4 team that beat Arkansas.  LaTech is the team that was top 25 most of the season, scored 48+ in 9 of 11 games, leads the nation in scoring, has an O’Brien award semifinalist at QB, and a Biletnikoff award...

I do.  For starters, LaTech has the #1 overall offense in nation by both yardage and scoring, they’re no slouch. However, the real difference between what LaTech and Alabama put up on the scoreboard was matchups.  A&M’s biggest weakness outside of its kicker this year has been man coverage...

The fact that jason just leaked that he reads shaggy has caused me to to lose all respect I have built up for him. I could not be more disappointed.

It's the same letter but as far as I can tell Jason didn't copy the version I posted, he was just sent the same letter.  The black outs are different.

Shaving them does work wonders.

Conception rates reported on message boards are always 10-20 percentage points higher than conception rates reported in scientific studies.

I'd call that bunching more than synchronizing.  You have to heat check with that method but the heat checking is only a few days rather than a few weeks.

He's still the 2nd most represented sire of show steers in online sales this fall.  The big difference has been the insane amount of Monpoly's this fall. The previous peak was about 12% of all steers by Heat Wave last fall.  This year Monopoly accounts for more than 20% of steers.

Because little girls getting their daddy to buy the pretty one is one of the most powerful forces on earth.

I made this class free for the next week.  The #1 vs #4 heifer is an excellent example of market vs breeding... http://www.livestockjudging.com/practice/?id=74

I think you're making a slightly different point.  There's a different between dropping a terminal steer for being a cripple and ignoring a calf because he doesn't move like a cat at 1,300 pounds pumped with fill. There's no shortage of judges today that will drop a steer in a terminal show...

I do think it's funny that market show steers still have that bad rep for movement issues when the show ring is the only place a 1300 lb steer packed with muscle and fat is actually expected to move. 

If you haven't heard market steer judges talk about structure for the sake of heifer mates you haven't listened to very many judges talk classes in the past few years.

The subletting thing changes quite a bit two years ago.  You'd have to ask the NWSS but from what I understand it's not allowed at all any more.

There's a rather large gap between somebody at work that may be a vegan or member of PETA and an activist that is volunteering to go into the heart of a stock show and stand in front of a display attacking the very reason people are there. One is reachable and should be communicated with. The...
