Considering Mark Cuban’s unparalleled ability to just make an offer and land deals, regardless of competing offers (and many times without even a counter offer from the prospective entrepreneur), I think Mark should be considered more of an Orca than a Shark.
Orcas are becoming somewhat infamous, especially off the coast of South Africa, for killing Great White Sharks, eating their livers, and letting the rest of the carcasses fall to the bottom of the ocean. From watching pretty much every episode of this show, it seems to me that Mark Cuban is the equivalent of an Orca Pod arriving at a feeding location for Great Whites. It’s no longer a Shark Tank, it’s an Orca Tank (which for the record, is the only place an orca has ever been recorded to have killed a human) with sharks in it.
In other words I guess I’m proposing that Mark Cuban be labeled “The Orca” of the Shark Tank, because, in terms of how the show operates, that’s exactly who/what he is.
