Where's Sisko's statue?

I've been thinking about this thread for the past year and I wanted to get in before the year time limit for comments was up.
This was my (joking) idea.

Nice, but could you put a baseball in his hand instead?

I'm going to do another one for one I imagine outside B'Hala that will have a baseball in one hand, a model of the Defiant resting on the other (like a bald eagle), with one leg on the ground and the other bent and resting on the foetal positioned cowering Gul Dukat.

With a bald Avery Brooks and two large guns, people might think you were memorializing Hawk.

I agree....remember how his statue was imagined in "What we left behind" -

How a cooking spoon in his hand tasting something he's making?

Sure, he used phasers when he had to, but they were not his first choice.

That's more of a commentary about the city than the man.

I'd have to agree that this statue does make him seem rather warlike. He had to fight a lot but he was no Klingon.

Except that one time..

At least he will have the high ground

I know you posted it years ago, but... superb!

Actually, I thought I could give it a go.

A baseball in one hand and Gul Dukat's head in the other.

A baseball in one hand and Gul Dukat's head in the other.

In the language of statues that would imply that he killed Dukat... and he never did.

^ I suppose you could argue he did. After all, he thrust himself with Dukat* into those fire caves, leading to, very probably, the destruction of their physical bodies.

(* if there was still really anything of Dukat left in that possessed entity)

Reminds me of the old poll I posted about which "look" they preferred for Sisko. Offered options were hair and clean-shaven, hair and goatee, bald and goatee, and Klingon.

Bald and goatee won, to no one's surprise, but Klingon scraped a few votes.

My interpretation was that Dukat's spirit - both his own and what possessed him - was trapped in the fire caves indefinitely.

I think so as well, but that doesn't negate that in all likelihood, his body was damaged beyond repair by the fall into the firecaves (or consumed by the fire), so that in a very conventional sense, he was killed. We saw what that fire did to Kai Winn, after all.

If he's holding an Orb, he could be the mascot for the New Orleans Saints.

Too bad they don't have a baseball team.

Seriously, I just don't think Sisko would want to be memorialized as a conqueror....think he saw himself more as a diplomat or mediator.

It would really go over well if he was wearing the San Francisco Giants baseball cap he wore during "Take Me Out to the Holosuite" before they replicated their Niners gear...

One will do. I say the transporter room.

Putting it in the transporter room would really make anyone think twice about stepping into that thing...
