There are only four sports references I can think of that relate to sharks.

1) The Miami Sharks, headed by fictional Steamin’ Willie Beamin in Oliver Stone's "Any Given Sunday". It showed the range of acting of Cameron Diaz and nearly reignited Bill Bellamy’s career. Nothing says "I can be a leading man" more than acting as a diva-WR, and at one point, blowing lines of coke off of boobs. What no awards for Bill? Well there’s always Rock-n-Jock. What? That was cancelled?

2) Greg Norman, or Chris Everett’s husband. Then again that nickname is unfair. Norman had a rare reprisal with an almost-win at the 2008 British Open.

3) The hockey team in San Jose. Ironcially, the shark that is depticted by the hockey team is non-specific, but I can tell you speaking from my soap box, albeit pedantically, that the depiction is inaccurate. There is but one shark that can survive in water that is hovering around or below freezing – the Salmon Shark. And it is clearly not black, in fact it is two-toned to blend in with the dark, cold depths of the Bering Sea, as well as the light on its' bottom so prey mistake it for the lighter water and sky.

4) The Dolphins just renamed Dolphin Stadium Land Shark Stadium.
