from Lindsay Berra of ESPN The Magazine,
Q: What do the San Jose Sharks and the Titanic have in common?
A: They both look good until they hit the ice. [Harsh? Try this one.]
Q: What do you call 30 millionaires watching the Stanley Cup Finals on TV?
A: The Sharks!
Hold the applause—these comedic gems aren’t ours. They are but a sampling of the wit posted on message boards by Sharks fans who are tired of San Jose’s beast-in-the-regular-season, belly-up-in-the-postseason play.
Too harsh again? Hardly. In November 2005, GM Doug Wilson traded for Bruins center Joe Thornton, who notched 125 points and won the Hart. In the playoffs? The Sharks lost in the second round to the eighth-seeded Oilers. In 2006-07, they posted a franchise-best 51– 26– 5 record … and lost again (to Detroit) in the second round. Last season, they picked up coveted blueliner Brian Campbell in late February, won the Pacific—then lost to the Stars in you-know-what round.
