Yea... they use CC for mob control due to threat issues. We use CC for survivability and item durability.. because I'll be damned if I'm going to let 7 heroic mobs beat on me and contribute to breaking my shield.
Well, SOME of us use CC. I'm too tough and stubborn for that personally :P BRING ON THE PAIN!
And I'm in the same boat as you Fife. Actually, when I first started tanking as Prot (TBC) it was, "Well, if you think you can handle it, we'll give it a try (only cause we can't find a Warrior ...)." Now it's always, "WE LOVE PALY TANKS!!! When they are good :)"
I did a PUG Kara last night (I know, glutton for punishment) and just about everyone in there kept sending me tells throughout the run, "Holy damn, you're the !@#$," or, "Best damn tank I've seen!" I don't mean to tute my own horn, but to show that if played right, you can be a damn good tank.
I love it too when a Mage asks, "What's my Sheep target?" (or any CC class asking their target) and I reply, "You don't have one." They get so excited, lol. You'd think they won the lottery or something.

Maybe the reason we don't get the credit we deserve is because the Big Bad Boss isn't falling on top of us at the end. But the mass of dead corpses in our wake is what got that Warrior/Druid his fame.
Drink to that!
to add that :)
