Icon41 Sharks Twitter Feed Takes Awesome Shot at ESPN
Sorry not sure if this deserved it's own thread but couldn't figure out where to put it. Feel free to move it mods. I just wanted to share as I'm sure others will get a kick out of this exchange that took place this morning:

We should probably get some sort of [Media] thread for things like this. Or it could just go in the Funny Pictures thread.

Why don't we have one big gigantic catch-all thread. Just one thread. For the entire site. Then people will stop complaining about new threads.

It was a made for TV movie that aired last night on the SyFy channel. It stars Tara Reid and some other washed up actors. I didn't see it but apparently its one of those over the top intentionally cheesy movies. Twitter was abuzz with tweets about it all last night.

I watched about half of it, it was everything you'd expect it to be. I had to tap out when the plan shifted to a teenage pilot flying a helicopter loaded with bombs into the middle of the sharknado. Just not believable.

ESPN ‏@espn 6h

Hey @SanJoseSharks, thoughts on changing your name to the San Jose #Sharknados?


San Jose Sharks ‏@SanJoseSharks 4h

Hey @espn, thoughts on showing more hockey highlights?


Jay Onrait ‏@JayOnrait 4h

@SanJoseSharks @mirtle We will have a #SharkNado of hockey highlights beginning August 17 on @FoxSports1. Thrilled I could use that hashtag.

That's where it became not believable for you?

Did it come off as a complaint? I honestly meant it as an idea/half response to OP's 'I couldn't figure where to put it'.

Hard to tell with yours, but I see a lot of people complaining about a new thread that should have been put into a mega thread.
