The things I love about listening to things from the 80s is how "politically incorrect" things being said are compared to what the country today thinks it should be. For instance, I don't think anyone can call another person an "oreo" today on TV and not get some flack about it.
Today, everyone is so touchy. But I like how well spoken Byron was even during his playing days.
