The Sharks board agree red cards and dirty play cannot be condoned, and it is unacceptable that this behaviour be associated with the Sharks brand.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
There's a cardinal rule that you don't talk about sharks. If you don't see it, it's not there.
Sharks are as tough as those football fans who take their shirts off during games in Chicago in January, only more intelligent.
I still think there's a big part of the population that has a lot of misinformation about sharks. But I think it's beginning to change a little bit. As good information about sharks permeates popular culture, things may start to change.
But as they say about sharks, it's not the ones you see that you have to worry about, it's the ones you don't see.
Twenty-five years ago nobody knew much about white sharks.
I don't think there's such a thing as an unprovoked shark attack.
I didn't invent the fear of sharks; it's as old as mankind, and that - to take that responsibility would mean that Mario Puzo should take the blame for the Mafia.
We cannot change the cards we are dealt, just how we play the game.
The cardinal sin in sports, what could really wreck it, is not cheating to win, which has gone on forever, but cheating to lose. That threatens a fundamental aspect of sports' appeal, which is their spontaneity. If games are fixed, they're no different from movies; they're scripted.
If they play dirty, then you play dirty.
