YES! I found it! Why Picard sucks!!!
Kirk always "Talks like THIS about his STARship and makING lOVE to WOMen in the GAlAXY!"

Picard always "Talks like... we have 48 hours to stop a war... or perhaps... start one."

And Picard isn't alone. While none of Kirk's crew talked in the same stilted voice, Picard's crew (save for Data, amazingly) always used that melodramatic tone.

So, yeah, Kirk forever! :party:

10. You realize of course that Picard
was a Frenchman with a very very British accent. I always found that highly ironic.
However I'll take Picard over Kirk every day..He has that sexy bald is beautiful look..;-)

31. he's not Scottish - he's from Yorkshire!
He's also the chancellor of my university - when and if I finish up my PhD, I'll get to shake his hand, and there will be a picture :) ..... ok, so it will just be Patrick Stewart, and not the character of Captain Picard, but I'm not really smart enough to make that distinction.

3. You want to know why I think Picard sucks?
he never once made a move on either the Doctor (Beverly Crusher) or the Couselor, Troi.

DAMN, put me anywhere near those two hotties on some ship in the middle of space and we will have to lock the door to my quarters... :P

My spaceship would have a bumper sticker that says: If this ship is a rocking, dont come a knocking...

Troi was too busy juggling Worf and Number One (among others)

their morning workout (stretching exercises in spandex) and Troi kisses and tells about last night! Hubba.

20. absolutely right

There is no contest here.

That steely-eyed gaze, the clench of his jaw, yet his words measured and said with quiet force. never so sexy a starship captain as Jean Luc. How I miss his handsome baldness, his cute shirt-tug when he stood up.

*sigh*

Kirk was a twit.

29. What. The. Fuck. Ever.
Don't be dissing Janeway, she kicks ass! She was so awesome that she travelled back in time to help herself to get her crew get home faster. She kicked the asses of any alien race experienced by Piccard or Kirk...and...she whipped the Borg (and formed a temporary alliance with them), Species 8472, the Kazons, and countless other alien species not experienced by any captain before her. She even had nerves of steel when facing the Borg Queen and had the smarts to outwit her, and she handled Q's son without breaking a sweat. And if she had been stationed on DS9 instead of that lame ass Commander Sisko, she would have kicked some Jem'Hadar and Vorta ass too! She did all of this...and always had sex appeal doing it!

Bottom line, Janeway would have stomped Kirk and Piccard in the dust with one had tied behind her back. That woman rocked my socks off! Don't you dare talk bad about her, or you will have to deal with ME!!!

she got in trouble at Star Fleet Academy for constantly leaving the seat in the upright position.

BSG is a little more real in that regard. You actually see the bathrooms on the Galactica, and they're unisex bathrooms at that! :)

35. Don't let the haters get you down.
I respect Janeway--she put herself out there and hept a diverse group of Maquis and alien and Federation guys together through the toughest thing imaginable--unending hopeless homesickness. She did what had to be done, and she sacrificed. She couldn't always be an asskicker: she had her ship, and no back-up. So her thing was making whatever choice got her people through--and she did good. She did deal with the same caliber enemies as the other Captains, but had to do her own thing for survival. But when she needed to be tough--she was.

Janeway wasn't lame. She cared about her crew. And yeah, she does have some sex appeal--there's an ep where she does kick butt in a tank-top where she was really representing her uh...non-Star- Fleet qualifications. Or I do recall such an ep. But anyway--she was prepared to kick ass if the situation called for it.

39. Man, Kirk is the melodramatic one.
Picard is just plain dramatic.

As much as I loved TOS (and Shatner's unapologetic hamminess), it's hard to watch these days, with its overblown acting, writing and incidental music. These are sins shared by TNG, certainly, but IMO to a much lesser degree.
