Sounds like you need to get your tanks +2% better tanking O.o I've never heard of someone gimping themselfs to reduce threat (I mean there are better cape enchants). Really like to see your main tanks talent/gear set ups.
If there's a Hunter in the group, use MisDirect, every time it's ready.
On that note... you might want to get Omen threat meter, and slow down on your abilites until he gets a better lead on threat. If you're dying at the end of the fight (Execute time)... well that's understandable. If you're dying right off the bat, you might be doing too much too soon. It's the DPS job to watch their threat, as well is it's the tank's job to watch his threat.
The object of raiding is getting better gear O.o Better gear = Better attack = killing bosses faster.
I'm sure you're in Berserker stance also, that's -threat right there too.
All and all, I'd really really perfer not to... but if the GM insists, I guess you'll have too... but it's wasting a enchant.
*edit* Yay 4k posts.. that's 4,000 useless posts I've babbled out
