Basically the same as the last thread. Just trying to see who you think the coolest nigga on the show was. Not cool as in "Man, Omar's cool" or some shit like that; I'm talking smooth, calm nigga.

Nominees are:

Bunk
Vondas
Norman, the campaign director
Slim Charles
Lester

Feel free to nominate others and list why.
 
What was the guy's name over the police dept again? Didn't he keep his power or position in the end?

Can Kill you...but don't have to...Positive yet dangerous. All He gotta do is make a couple calls, And he run's a boxing gym.:cool:
 
You talking about the Polack? Valchek? Or you talking about Burrell? Burrell wasn't cool.

I forgot about Cutty. Cutty was a cool ass nigga. Remember when he confronted high ass Sherrod beating up Ramond? Or when he broke down Monk on some "I ain't talking to YOUR ass" type shit.

I know y'all don't remember much of Norman, but he's my pick. I should make some quotes of his when I get home.

I remember when Rawls told him and Carcetti that the nigga in the wheelchair wasn't supporting the mayor anymore. Than nigga was like "Wait for it, wait for it" then he ran to the car talking bout "Gun it to Councilman 'whatever'....AND FUCK THEM REDLIGHTS MENG"
 
My second choice..

He had mofos begging to talk to him or meet him...and he was sitting right In the same room the whole time...Thats some cool shit.:yes:

I almost forgot about him (Norman)....He's a cool mofo too. :lol:

Carcetti wouldn't have won shit If It weren't for him.
 
Slim - he could relate to everybody from the youngins to the oldheads and had respect from everybody but never flexed on anybody. Plus he kept his dc swagger ever though the show was based on bmore. Local folks had love for that.

...but I'm outta here before a ninja comes in here w/ 20 reasons why Avon was...

I'm talking cool like that Uncle at ya family BBQ cool. The Greek ain't had enough screen time, plus he wasn't cool. Michael damn sure wasn't cool. Mike was a lil punk. Mouzone wasn't "cool" either. Or Snoop. At least to me.
 
I picked Lester, but I wanted to pick

"Your homophobia is so visceral."

NOTHING ever unsettled him. Not even getting shot in the stomach by Omar out of nowhere and having a hot barrel in his grill.

Dude shrugged and started making his peace with Allah! :eek:

Method Man tried to thug him off the block, dude put a handcrafted bullet in his shoulder without flinching, and then lectured him on the next round coming his way.

The Old West standoff in the alley with Omar? "You'll jump TOO with one in your elbow." CLASSIC.

String tried to give him a "help me" look before he got blasted, dude didnt even BLINK. Just grilled him before merking him.

And then there was his carrot-stick offer to Avon when he caught his ass slippin' in the barber's chair--which led to String's death.

"The inner workings of your organization do not concern me." :hmm:

Also, Norm was a pretty smooth ass brother too. "At least they get to see a beggin' ass white man on his knees. Always a good moment for the folks."

yeah, him and Vondas. i like the "greeks" business model. they knew when to walk away to live another day. no matter how many millions got flushed. its not worth your freedom. and money can be made again.

:yes:...
Vondas was like an upgraded version of Stringer Bell. Only difference was , I believe Vondas would actually kill you, Were as Stringer would try to get somebody else to do It. Plus Vondas would never snitch...Even If his life was In danger from his organization... A take matter into his own hands kinda cat. He might be my third choice over this guy..

He was a true soilder.
 
Yea Flawless :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

one of the alltime great moments in the show.

he kept it regular in court let them know if he don't look out who gonna look out.

show was greatly written.

too many quality characters on both sides to count.

Only poorly wrotten character was McNulty.

The Old adviser maybe it was Norman to the white mayor Carcetti,he talked about helping him get elected but not voting for his ass. lol that shit was classic.
 
That's what I mean by cool. Like I could chill with Lester, Norman, Slim, Vondas, and Bunk drinkin a beer, eating some BBQ, playing spades. They all seemed like cool, funny ass niggas.

Oh, I take back Mouzone then. Probably Lester then Bunk's crazy ass.

Norman is smooth as silk but he has that gay man syrupy drawl in his voice, so maybe I'd pass on that one.

Vondas would be interesting but he's the kind of dude I dont wanna know shit about, for my own protection.

Big G aka Slim Charles would be cool to blaze with, but then he's the kind of dude to get in some random-ass shootout while yall chillin
