  1. "I shouted out who killed the Kennedys, when after all, it was you and me." Is the only line in the song that has anything to do with the 60s that I can see. Ballsy, sensational for sure, but I don't think it defines anything.
  2. Let's not get carried away now.
  3. When they were truly at their greatest, it was Lennon's band. Also, after the split, Lennon at least put out POB & Imagine. OTOH, Macca completely jumped the shark.... nothing but trash outside of a handful of songs, despite recent revisionist history. What a monumental waste of talent. Still, he did make a ton of money since then, and he'll always be a Beatle.
  4. Lennon > Macca
  5. I would have to say NO. Good, not great.... + the year the Niners made the Super Bowl, he wasn't even the best LB on the team.
  6. Hmmm, I guess they actually saw EJ play last year.
  7. FWIW, here in Baltimore, there aren't any Ravens fans that care if he leaves or not, even the Flacco-bashers. In (granted) limited playing time, he never showed any signs that he could get the job done.
  8. In the 70's as a kid, I remember watching the weekly show on Channel 4, "Let's Talk Sports", with Van Miller, Stan Barron, Healy, & Rifenburg on the panel. Never really cared for any of them though, to us, they were 2nd-rate to Channel 7's Rick Azar & of course the late great Clip Smith. When Ed Kilgore came to town, he was a scrub at the bottom of the barrel, very very green.... he replaced Mike Nolan I think.
  9. Maybe as a whole, though I wouldn't agree. Mick Taylor in his prime was a far more talented musician than anyone in the Beatles. And Charlie Watts crushes Ringo.
  10. ^^^ I'd say both Piper and WYWH are also better than DSOTM.
  11. He was one of my heroes too until about 25 years ago. Yeah, I read it... I'm against the whole idea of him having to write a book, but I'll admit it was an interesting read.
  12. Yeah, back before he cleaned up, lost the glare, and started smiling all the time.
  13. Rolling Stones thru 1982 > Beatles thru 1970 but Beatles thru 1970 > Rolling Stones thru 1982 + Vegas Stones 1989 to present.
  14. If true, thanks & good luck Fred. Better now for him then in the pre-season I guess.
  15. No doubt. Rex is golden, while Whaley has only bought himself another year for now.
  16. Outstanding! I'll trade an above-average high-motor lunch-pail linebacker for a proven big-time impact playmaker every time! Philly fans can NOT be pleased.
  17. To me, there's nothing worse than false hope. If indeed the current braintrust has determined that he can't cut it, there's no need to waste any more time.
  18. Wouldn't surprise me at all, just look at the track record of his biggest fanboys, they are almost always wrong. And speaking of accuracy, I don't think any other GM that has watched him play would be too interested in trading for him either. No big deal though IMO, always better to cut your losses early & move on.
  19. I noticed that too... I guess it's not easy being an insider.
