Best Trek Captain?

So. It only proves 41% of the people on /. are idiots, I think most of us already knew that.

The only question I
ever thought was hard
is "Do I like Kirk?
Or do I like Picard?"

If red-shirt ensigns had their choice, they'd choose Picard. At least, he didn't have every unknown ensign killed on an away mission

Since he is responsible for some of the more spectacular scenes in Star Trek.

But at least Picard had the courage to admit he was bald.

Fry: Uh, just so we'll know, who's the enemy?

Brannigan: A valid question! We know nothing about them, their language, their history or what they look like. But we can assume this: they stand for everything we don't stand for. Also they told me you guys look like dorks.

Did you not see Generations? Picard couldn't even handle Soren without Kirk. Wasn't Soren supposed to be some old guy from the same race of "listeners" that Guinin was from? So basically Picard needed a geriatric Kirk to take on one old psychiatrist.

Because Kirk never went toe to toe with a Klingon. Didn't he toss one into molten lava in one of the movies? Additionally, the only Klingon that would serve on Kirk's bridge would be stuffed and mounted on the wall.

Also;

Kirk's Enterprise didn't have a didn't have a daycare. He left his illegitimate kids all over the galaxy

Picard went back in time and brought back Data's head. Kirk brings back two whales and picks up a blonde.

When Picard has a problem he talks with a counselor or Guinin. When Kirk has a problem, he shoots it.

You didn't see crew members teenage kids taking over Kirks Enterprise, did you?

You can't count Picard in the TNG movies. There is a separate Picard in those movies. He has gone insane.

And yet he managed to keep it from blowing up until he decided it was time to do so. Then Starfleet had a brand new one ready for him when he returned.

Picard's Enterprise was destroyed up by two women in an antique warbird. And where was Picard when this happened? Oh yeah, having his ass saved by Kirk.

>Sisko hit Q

He did? Man, that must've been right before Q's shift directing air traffic over ABQ.

Picard was that moody, strong exterior type that women would know is secretly filled with passion and romance.

Kirk was the kind of guy who picks up girls at bars and is nailing them by the time they've reached the alley.

Chicks like Picard, guys wish they could be Kirk.

Voyager was a Red Dwarf knock off.

Complete with the hologram and talking cat.
