Favourite Sisko Moment
Picard's poll is up... time to come up with Sisko's greatest moment folks.
Give a man a fire, and you keep him warm for a day. SET a man on fire, and you will keep him warm for the rest of his life...

'In the Pale Moonlight'. Sacrificing his integrity to get the Romulans into the War... and finding out he's all right with it.
Either that, or punching out Q.

Re: Favourite Sisko Moment
Hmmm, there was also "The Ship," or "Waltz." His speech to the Prophets in "Sacrifice of Angels" was notable. The Evil Sisko act in "For the Uniform" was certainly a standout moment in the career of Benjamin Lafayette Sisko...

I'll second his getting the Romulans into the war.

Tackling Gul Dukat into the fire cave was pretty damn spectacular, IMO.

Re: Favourite Sisko Moment
Honestly, "In the Pale Moonlight" was the first thing that came to mind. I just scrubbed my mind for a few more options to throw in the running

Re: Favourite Sisko Moment
Watching him commit warcrimes in For the Uniform was my favorite. Not because it was awesome but because it finally showed a Captain that wasn't sqeaky clean (VOY hadn't descended that far yet nor was ENT on the horizon).

Re: Favourite Sisko Moment
In a more milquetoast version of that, I'd say his monomania about the baseball game vs. the Vulcan crew. Not important to anything, really, but showed how skewed and human a Starfleet captain could be.

Him diving into the Wormhole to face a fleet of ships.
What does defeat mean to you?
Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.

That was also in "Sacrifice of Angels," though I only mentioned the bit with the Prophets. Thanks for filling in the other piece.Teaos wrote:Him diving into the Wormhole to face a fleet of ships.
