Suddenly I like White better.
Black has his rook locked up. Needs to free it with f5 perhaps.
So you're going to take McMad's place? Well at least you're suggesting a better move.

The game is roughly even, White's pawn structure is slightly better.

Everyone will probably get their wish, a draw. *sigh*
