IMO there is no versus the Beatles they outdid them all
I agree that the Stones are the greatest, but it isn't a runaway. The Beatles were a tough nut to crack. Mick may not realize it, but when he walked off the stage at Glastonbury (and raised his index finger to the heavens) he was actually signaling the end of the Beatles reign! Reminded me of Joe Namath as he ran off the field after Super Bowl III. Long live the new kings of rock 'n roll!
Ironically joe Namath is one of the most overrated players ever. In fact he did not deserve the mvp of that game.he did nothing in that game.notice a trend? "Overrated"

Great post Stonehearted.
She Loves You with a fuzz box !! Shame that's one of the sessions where the tapes were wiped/lost and i was joking about George Martin's reaction to the fuzzbox but apparently i was spot on.
Some engineer apparently once said over the talk back at an early Jimi Hendrix session "we seem to be getting a lot of distortion in here Jimi" to which Chas Chandler said "that's his style".
Oh and the comment about Still I'm Sad being Eastern, isn't it more of a gregorian chant type thing ...Yardbirds were brilliant till Page and Most got hold of them. If only they'd manage to keep Page and Beck together on twin lead...one of my timetravel concert choices would be the Stones/Yardbirds 1966...bet that was awesome.
Namath had 3 very good years. That's It. and that's a fact. You can look it up.He completed 50% of his asses and his QB rating sucksQuote

Overrated? Only by new generation revisionists. Ask John Madden or Bill Walsh (when he was alive) if they thought Joe Namath was overrated. It was a different game back then. Today, the playing field is tilted heavily in favor of the passing game. Just about every Tom, Drew, and Harry, are throwing well above 60% these days. Namath had the most beautiful set up and one of the quickest releases ever. He was the first to throw for 4000 yards. He was as gutsy as they come and had to play on gimpy knees throughout his professional career. Because of that he had a very narrow window of excellence. If Namath was playing today (under today's rules, and with two healthy knees) he would be one of the best.

You obviously have no knowledge about how the game has changed over the decades.
I am an expert on the NFL. Which is how I have so much knowledge about Namath. SO how many great seasons DID he have?

you clearly have no clue what you are talking about. namath was throwing the ball more than most QBs back then when it was primarily a running league. terry bradshaws numbers are not that much better than namaths. bradshaws numbers are only better because the last 4-5 years he played the league had turned into more of a passing league

How many "snaps" (behind center) have you taken in your life? I have taken thousands.
You obviously didn't read the part where I said Namath had a very narrow window of excellence due to injuries. However, I believe he was all pro as late as 1972. That was the year he threw for over 400 yards twice. One of those games was a 496 yard six touchdown performance in a defeat of the great Johnny Unitas and the Baltimore Colts.
If Namath came into the league today with two sound knees and had the benefit of playing in a good system with a good supporting cast of receivers he could easily complete upwards of 65% of his passes. It's just a different game today with different rules all geared to increase scoring and pass efficiency.

Who cares? I say good riddance to those that are so insecure that they have to label the opinions of others they disagree with as insane and annoying ramblings. I suggest you pack up your toys and go home. Either that, or grow up and accept the fact that this is a message board where all opinions are welcome.
Gumboot, I have told you (and others like you that also lack vision) repeatedly to just ignore my comments if they bother you so much. Why continue to torture yourself? Are you masochistic?

You both realize that I didn't start this thread, right? And, long after I am gone (and I will be gone very soon) this subject will rise again and again. You guys really need to accept the fact that if you are going to hang around here for years this subject is going to come up on a regular basis.
You both think I am full of BS but I tell you exactly like I see it. Do you want me to tell you that I am kidding about the Sons of the Beatles? I would be lying if I told you that. I firmly believe it can happen. It should happen! And, I will do everything in my power to make it happen! It would bring joy to millions. Why would any decent person be opposed to something that would bring joy to millions? Just because you can't see something doesn't mean that others can't see it. So stop with your petty attacks.

OK I agree that Skippy & Stompin' Tom need to settle down (Gumboot, where is your trademark Canadian tolerance?), but for the love of all that is sweet and good will you please stop it with the sons of beatles nonsense?
I enjoy a lot of your posts but when you keep going there you do yourself a disservice. I can even handle your idolization of James McCartney (although I don't get it...a put on perhaps?) and the 'Stones have finally surpassed the Beatles at Glastonbury' but leave those poor sons ofbitchesbeatles alone!
