4. His XO doesn't wears a cool earing.
5. He has never, ever been split into a good and evil half.
6. After being crtically wounded he still has a sense of humor.
7. Janeway worshiped a god. Kirk fought a god. Picard became a god. Sisko has done all three withstyle.
8. Makes Southern Baptists Preachers jealous.
9. Can lay out a guilt trip like no other.
10. Hasn't been beaten in hand to hand combat.
11. Drinks Klingon Coffee (raktajino) instead Earl Grey or wimpy human coffee.
12. First Officer has never betrayed the Federation.

17. He can out Ferengi the Ferengi.
18. His science officer has found anomalies boring.
19. He lost his true love to the Borg not some wimpy Klingons or Q.
20. After fighting the Dominion he went and got a new ship. After five years Kirk got the same ship with a software upgrade.
21. When he say, "fire a spread of torpedoes" Worf fires more than one.
22. He managed to SAVE his son from the Klingons.
23. He actually realizes that there is no up and down in space.
24. Worf wouldn't live much longer if threatened to kill Sisko where he stood.

26. Two words: Quantum Torpedeos.
27. Sisko makes a better Klingon than Worf.
