@cursethesemetalhands: Jeff didn't make that argument he actually made the opposite where he talked to Brad about possibly pushing it to number 1 (calling it a "dark deed") and seemed totally at ease with it being in the top 10 and also most disappointing. IIRC it was Alex who argued against adding Destiny to the Top 10 on the basis that it got an award for being disappointing.
Isn't there the possibility that the Tag Teams division ends up with the same problem the Cruiserweight division has? Give it a whole show that no one keeps up with and you only compound how little they matter on the main shows. (If you have a fix for the cruisers that'd be worth hearing too, no doubt.)
@toug:Yeah, this was always my read of Mordin. A scientist who made an awful choice because the believed alternative was worse and that he lived with it by looking at the numbers. I'm not sure I ever got the impression that he was really proud of genophage, so much as viewing it as a grim necessity. It has been a while though, so I may be remembering him incorrectly.
What a fantastic article. I hope we see more incredibly thoughtful pieces from Gita in the future.
In this Podcast we learn that not everyone likes the same guys you do. Guys, it is okay to not like Owens. It doesn't make Jeff insane. Different strokes and all.
