Well you learn something new every day. I didn't know they changed the name from Calf Roping to Tie Down Roping so I don't have an answer to your question. Seems kind of odd to remove the cow from coverage of the event and even the name of the event.
These animals apparently couldn't be treated better though, so why minimize what is actually happening?
