This week on Black Cowboys:

meet Jesse Stahl and Bill Pickett –– kings of the bull riders, broncbusters and bulldoggers

Much like with Michael Jordan, it was pretty much just Jesse Stahl versus gravity

And Bill Pickett, he flipped bulls with his teeth
iheart.com/podcast/1119-b… At rodeos, Jesse Stahl always *somehow* came in 2nd or 3rd. One judge bucked this trend:

“Regardless of nationality or color, the man who makes the most points deserves the most money! If there is anybody looking for an argument...I’ll be glad to meet him right after the show"
