It's Kirk for me. The others have average to good rosters. Except Picard's crew is a joke imo because his first mate is Riker and he also had Wesley Crusher on his team at one point iirc. Also I'm convinced that Chekov is a commie and Data is a bot. Not hard to be recognized as the best captain if the crew around you is hamstrung by losers in key positions.

Personally, I think Picard has the best overall crew. he has a damn good 1st officer in Riker, a damn good Lt. Commander in Data, a damn good Chief of engineer in Geordi, etc. Data most of all. It REALLY helps to have a android who does not need to sleep and is very smart. Even Wesley Crusher has proven useful in missions.

Emphasis mine.

Chekov is one of Kirk's guys, but your phrasing and the combination with Data suggests you're still talking about Picard's crew. Are you possibly thinking of someone else?

I got my crews confused there. I was just caught up in the slander and got carried away. :oops:

I'm convinced that Uhura is a black woman. Prove me wrong.

That's false. Everybody knows that Uhura is a purple Super Saiyan Wizard from the land of Narnia who duels people in a children's card game for the fate of the world.
