"You go in the cage, cage goes in the water, you go in the water. Shark's in the water, our shark." -Quint
Fisherman on Martha's Vineyard, Mass. display a massive 1,100-pound tiger shark Sunday, July 17, 2005. Unfortunately, the fisherman failed to capture first place in the monster shark derby because their boat was six minutes too late in returning to Oak Bluffs harbor with its catch.

Now maybe it's just me. Maybe I'm just too nice, but if a team of fishermen catch a 1,100 pound tiger shark and bring it back to shore, I'm going to give them the prize. I'd make up some excuse about my watch being fast or something equally as lame. 6 minutes. Seriously? Give the brotha a trophy. Lord knows he's ging to be eating shark steaks for the next year. For the record that is one big ass shark. "Fellows, let's be reasonable, huh? This is not the time or the place to perform some kind of a half-assed autopsy on a fish... And I'm not going to stand here and see that thing cut open and see that little Kintner boy spill out all over the dock."
