Yes, in the '80s Paul was considered the 'lame' one, I guess, because of John's canonization. But, except by diehard '70s Lennon fans and people who don't like the Beatles generally and don't even listen to Paul's music while hating it, people nowadays don't consider Paul 'lame.' (Sadly, now people have gone to the opposite extreme about John - they act as though he was this horrible, violent, nasty person. Why can't he just be a human being, with flaws?)

So I guess what I'm saying is that the blind item says more about the person who wrote it than the subjects of her post.
