Introduction

In this engaging episode of The Dan Patrick Show, hosts Rich Davis and Danny G dive into a lively discussion centered around team photo etiquette, using a recent incident involving LeBron James as a pivotal example. The episode seamlessly blends humor, personal anecdotes, and insightful commentary, making it both entertaining and relatable for listeners.

Meeting LaVar Arrington

The conversation begins with Rich Davis recounting an encounter with former NFL star LaVar Arrington at the Super Bowl in New Orleans. This meeting sets the stage for the episode's main theme.

• Rich Davis ([03:49]): "We were having cocktails with a bunch of the sponsors and just a good time in New Orleans. And I roll up with my college hall of famer, LaVar Arrington."

The LeBron James Photo Incident

The core of the discussion revolves around LeBron James' decision to appear in street clothes during the NBA All-Star Game team photo, rather than donning his uniform like his teammates. This act sparked debate among fans and commentators alike.

• Danny G ([03:42]): "LeBron is waking up hearing you bozos right now."
• Rich Davis ([05:38]): "LeBron James. He was in his street clothes for the NBA All Star photo and Covino said he couldn't have thrown on a warm up shirt or something."

Key Points Discussed:

1. Respect and Team Unity:

   • Danny G ([05:37]): "I think this is a misstep for LeBron, and it's kind of funny."
   • The hosts argue that LeBron's choice disrespects his teammates by not participating fully in the team photo process.

2. Public Scrutiny and Expectations:

   • Rich Davis ([06:02]): "LeBron has been under the microscope since he was a teenager. And to think there's very few bad things anyone could say about LeBron James."
   • They discuss the immense public scrutiny athletes like LeBron face and how it influences their actions.

3. Personal Accountability:

   • Danny G ([05:17]): "Why you kissing LeBron's ass? I don't know, dad. I'm just trying to be diplomatic here."
   • Danny shares personal stories reflecting on past behaviors that may parallel LeBron's current actions, emphasizing growth and accountability.

Personal Anecdotes on Ruining Photos

The hosts share humorous and relatable stories about moments when photos were unintentionally "ruined" by unexpected elements.

• Rich Davis ([16:31]): "I had two kids wear jeans to the Little League team photo. It bothered me a little bit."
• Danny G ([34:39]): "I showed up to a pink-themed party in a blue shirt. Ruined the photo."

These anecdotes highlight the universal struggle of maintaining group photo etiquette and the feelings of frustration or awkwardness that can arise from deviations.

Caller Interactions

Listeners call in to share their own experiences and opinions on the topic, adding depth and diversity to the conversation.

• Katherine Legge ([36:57]): "LeBron always wants to be the center of attention, and he's all about team."
• Martin Luther King III ([53:00]): Provides additional commentary on LeBron's public persona and responsibilities.

Lessons and Takeaways

The episode culminates in a series of lessons derived from the discussions:

1. Photo Etiquette Rules:

   • New members or guests in group photos should position themselves in a way that maintains the photo's integrity, such as standing at the ends to allow for easy cropping if necessary.

2. Balancing Personal Expression and Team Unity:

   • While personal style is important, maintaining team solidarity, especially in formal settings like All-Star photos, is equally crucial.

3. Growth and Self-Reflection:

   • Reflecting on past mistakes can lead to personal growth, as seen through the hosts' own anecdotes about evolving from less considerate behaviors.

Notable Quotes

• Danny G ([34:09]): "That's how I feel. I'm the only guy posing with a bunch of dudes in pink shirts. And I'm wearing a blue shirt. Like, I'm cooler than all of you."
• Rich Davis ([16:25]): "There was one kid who wore jeans. Little League picture day."

Conclusion

This episode of The Dan Patrick Show offers a blend of humor, personal storytelling, and critical analysis of celebrity actions, all centered around the theme of maintaining etiquette in group photos. By using LeBron James' recent photo choice as a springboard, Rich Davis and Danny G explore deeper issues of respect, public perception, and personal growth, providing listeners with both entertainment and thoughtful takeaways.

[Rich Davis]

That's.

[Danny G]

Yeah, it is. Are you still driving that trusty old ride? Keep it looking sharp with Mako. From dense to faded paint, we've got you covered. Get a free estimate today. Oh, better get Mako.

[Rich Davis]

You ever thought you'd say that?

[Danny G]

No.

[Rich Davis]

Oh, better get Mako. We met the Mako people in New Orleans at the Super Bowl.

[Danny G]

But if you asked me as a pumpkin pie haircutted kid watching SportsCenter if I thought I'd ever be filling in for Dan Patrick, I would have probably said no. Probably not.

[Rich Davis]

Oh, I knew it.

[Danny G]

How cool is that?

[Rich Davis]

One day, that guy, I'll be his number one fill in.

[Danny G]

So I'm Steve Covino. That is Rich Davis. Danny G is super producing 87799 on Fox. The most buttery voice in radio, the smooth Danny G. Mark is here. Thank you guys, Fox Sports Radio Nation for hanging with us again. We're on from 2 to 4 on the west, 5 to 7 on the east. Monday through Friday, Covino and Rich, as.

[Rich Davis]

We shout out the Mako people that we met at the Super Bowl.

[Danny G]

Yeah, good people.

[Rich Davis]

That's where I had the conversation with Lavar.

[Steve Covino]

Oh, you were doing your two man show.

[Rich Davis]

Well, here's what happened. We were having cocktails with a bunch of the sponsors and just a good time in New Orleans. And I roll up with my college.

[Steve Covino]

Hall of famer, by the way, Lavar Erington.

[Rich Davis]

I mean, what a guy, right? I mean, one of the funniest dudes. I love Lavar. I'm having my Tito's and soda. He strolls up, he pulls the straw out of my drink and throws away. He's like, what are you doing? Having a straw. And that started a whole two man show where Lavar's telling me that I can't have a straw in my cocktail. I thought that was standard, the little bar straw.

[Danny G]

He said, hold on. He said it was also the way you were sipping it, like. And he had his pinky. Rich had his pinky out and he.

[Steve Covino]

Said you bent the straw down to fit into your mouth like a little wuss.

[Danny G]

Rich originally asked for a silly straw. You know, the little circle Loops. But, yeah, he was saying it was the way you were doing it, too. So straw with a cocktail is a no, no, depending on how. Yeah, And Rich also asked for an umbrella and a sword for his little pineapple fruit.

[Rich Davis]

I mean, who doesn't? So shout out to the Mako people. Shout out to our buddy Levar from Two Pros and a Cup of Joe. All right. Why did LeBron ruin everything?

[Danny G]

Well, hold on. I need to preface this. I don't want the LeBron smoke. I saw how he ruined Doug Gottlieb's day yesterday.

[Steve Covino]

And best believe we are on live on AM570, the blowtorch in Southern California.

[Danny G]

Better believe it. What up?

[Steve Covino]

So LeBron is waking up hearing you bozos right now.

[Danny G]

Hey, LeBron, let it be known that me, Cavino here, I'm a fan, and I will say this respectfully.

[Steve Covino]

Kissing ass.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah, kissing the King's ass.

[Danny G]

My dad's gonna hit me up.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah.

[Danny G]

Why you kissing LeBron's ass? Why you kissing his ass? I don't know, dad. I'm just trying to be diplomatic here. I don't hate LeBron. Sounds like you're kissing his ass.

[Rich Davis]

Sounds like it.

[Danny G]

No, I will say, when you live under a microscope, guy's been famous since he's, you know, been out of high school, before high school. You gotta give props first before you bring these things up, because he rarely missteps, and he's done so many things right. Imagine if you were under that microscope, cameras on you all the time, how many times you would have misstepped, Right?

[Rich Davis]

So probably be in prison.

[Danny G]

I think this is a misstep for LeBron, and it's kind of funny, so you gotta hear. What's that?

[Rich Davis]

You're right. He has been under the microscope since he was a teenager. And to think there's very few bad things anyone could say about LeBron James. So if that's kissing his ass, then so be it.

[Danny G]

And I'll also say this. I am not guilt free here. I've also made this mistake before, and. And I'll tell you my story. So again, I don't want the LeBron James smoke.

[Steve Covino]

That time you dissed a kid at the Olympics.

[Danny G]

Yeah. No, no, no. You'll hear about it. And I'll tell you what, if you guys don't know the story, LeBron James did call out Doug Gottlieb yesterday, and Doug was like, yeah, I really don't care. I don't care. There was a. It was a lot of drama here at Fox Sports Radio. Though, yesterday.

[Rich Davis]

Come on. Doug loves it. He has to.

[Danny G]

I would love it. Hey, LeBron, feel free to call me. I really don't care.

[Rich Davis]

LeBron made fun of Doug for having a 3 and 24 record as a coach.

[Danny G]

Don't you have anything better to do on your day off?

[Rich Davis]

I'm Doug Gottlieb, everybody.

[Danny G]

So here's what happens, by the way.

[Rich Davis]

In a few weeks, I might have more coaching wins in Little League.

[Steve Covino]

That is a low blow.

[Rich Davis]

What? I'm just saying, I'm a coach.

[Danny G]

Oh. You know, now you're coach.

[Rich Davis]

Coach Davis, I'm Coach Rich. Give me. Give me a couple weeks.

[Danny G]

So, again, give me a second.

[Rich Davis]

Coming for you, Gottlieb.

[Danny G]

What I say about LeBron, I say.

[Rich Davis]

Respectfully, my team's one and oh, but.

[Danny G]

I do mean what I say. Covino and Rich on Fox Sports Radio in for Dan Patrick. Danny G. I need you on standby in case I say anything out of line or wrong because you're the resident Lakers fan. But this is the story as I know it. All right. 87799 on Fox. It's All Star Weekend. Most of us weren't tuning in, right. There's a lot of criticism. We talked about it yesterday, man, it sucked. Even Draymond Green said it sucked. Trey Young said it sucked. Everybody said it sucked.

[Rich Davis]

What did Trayvon say on a scale of 1 to 10? 0.

[Danny G]

Yeah. Yeah. I mean, people did not hold back on their thoughts and feelings about the All Star Game. I mean, David, Kevin Love was chirping yesterday. Did you see that Danny G. About, hey, if you want people to participate? He was calling out Mac McClung winning three, three years in a row.

[Steve Covino]

I think we should call him out for some of his jokes during those 20 minute breaks.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah, well, I think. Didn't Kevin Durant even say, hey, if you're going to criticize it so much, hey, let's just not have an All Star Weekend, and we could just chill.

[Danny G]

He did. I got it right here. He tweeted out last night. I think it's more fun to complain about the NBA than to actually watch it. Crazy. Cancel All Star Weekend. And let's just give everybody a break since we're so miserable around this time. It's true. But you're just calling it as you see it.

[Rich Davis]

I mean, people don't think about it.

[Danny G]

Not like it. People want to like it.

[Rich Davis]

But think about it this way, guys. We brought this up, like, a month ago, and we focused on how Charles Barkley and Shaq and all the you would say the face of the NBA, as far as broadcasters and pregame and post game, they're roasting the league.

[Danny G]

Kevin Hart's terrible.

[Rich Davis]

Kevin Hart's essentially doing stand up about how bad it is. The players are saying it. No other sport poops on itself like. Like the NBA. Imagine if, you know a Rod and Jeter and Big Papa. Big Papa, Big Papi, Big Papa.

[Steve Covino]

You brought Biggie back to life.

[Rich Davis]

Imagine if they were like, yeah, baseball stinks. Imagine if, you know, Kevin Burkhardt and Joe Buck and Collinsworth, they were all like, yeah, you know, the NFL stinks.

[Danny G]

Yeah. They're trying to lift the sport. They're trying to polish a turd.

[Rich Davis]

So the NBA is doing nothing to help itself.

[Danny G]

Right. And that's the same as we see it. Right. So at least they're being genuine about it, because we also feel the same thing. And they're just calling it as you see it. And I'm calling it as I see it now. So it's All Star Weekend. Everybody had their criticisms, to my understanding. LeBron's there and he's an All Star. And last minute, he's like, yeah, I'm not going to play. And you got to put yourself in his size 16 shoes. Probably wanted to see how he felt. That's what I'm imagining. And then realized, like, you know what? It's not worth it. Not playing.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah. Now, first time in 20 years that he wasn't active in the game. And Giannis, to be fair, did the same thing.

[Danny G]

But it adds to the disappointment. In all fairness, Giannis isn't LeBron. Right. LeBron has done a lot to lift the league. I don't say that to kiss his ass, but last minute, you know what you're doing now? You're taking the roster spot of someone else. Someone else could have been there had he made this decision sooner. But maybe he was really waiting it out, giving the benefit of the doubt, waiting it out to the last minute to see if he felt good enough. But his tootsies hurt, his ankle hurt, whatever sore needed. The rest wasn't good enough to play. Now, criticism number one again. Roster spot taken.

[Rich Davis]

Now, I'm not worried about that.

[Danny G]

Well, you're not in the NBA, bozo. What if you wanted to be on an All Star team? That would have been kind of cool.

[Rich Davis]

In a league that complains about the weekend. Who's LeBron? Who's he taking a spot for?

[Danny G]

Anybody.

[Rich Davis]

Someone that doesn't deserve to be there anyway.

[Danny G]

Well, I mean, that's not necessarily true. Because Trey Young deserved to be there and he wasn't there. Unless. Yeah. Because of injury. Right. Because spots were open. So LeBron James missteps there, takes a spot. Could have gave it to somebody else, could have nominated someone else. That would have been cool. Right? But they're taking teen pictures, which is always, I guess, an honor. Right? You're there with all the greats of the year or should be an honor. That's the thing.

[Rich Davis]

My favorite group photo every year is all the NFL head coaches.

[Danny G]

Oh, that is pretty good.

[Rich Davis]

When does that come out?

[Danny G]

That is pretty good.

[Rich Davis]

That's always my favorite group.

[Danny G]

They're taking their all Star team photos and LeBron James jumps in with some big names. They're All Stars guys. Kevin Durant, Steph Curry, James Harden. Kyrie's there. They're all there posing in their all star uniforms. And LeBron James jumps in with street clothes. This is the team photo. Street clothes, dude. Like, not like a warm up outfit. Like the. This is what he was rocking. And they're like, all right, we're taking a team photo. Now, I understand he was hurt. I understand he wasn't playing. But you gotta tell me his ankle hurt so much that he couldn't throw on a pair of shorts, the tank top, the shirt, and just pose with the rest of the team like a guy who's honored to be on the All Star team. I thought that was odd. In my opinion. Ruin the photo. I get it. He's LeBron James. Any photo with LeBron James is a great photo. I'd be thrilled to have a photo with LeBron James. But these are his contemporaries. These are other big stars. If I was Steph Curry, if I was Kevin Durant, I'd be like, yo, man, put your uniform on. What are you doing? You're ruining the photo. Ruined the photo. Now what did I say? I said, I've been there and I've done that. I am not guilt free here. I have my own stories. But we also want to open it up to you and your thoughts. 87799 on Fox. To me, it just adds to the feeling of how little do you care about this? Because when you, the player, the superstar, the team doesn't care about the product, how do you expect the fans to care about the product? How do you expect us to care about the game? You don't even care enough to put the uniform on for a photo. And that's just one little side story here. But that feeling translates to us, and that's why we are left here. Like, that was boring.

[Rich Davis]

The question here is ruining the topic really is ruining the photo.

[Danny G]

Yeah.

[Rich Davis]

And some people care. How do you not some people, dude, that's the problem.

[Danny G]

It's supposed to be an honor. How you're supposed to care if you don't. Why should I?

[Rich Davis]

All right. I have so many examples of.

[Danny G]

I'll give you a really bad example. To start it off, it's still early. Nobody's listening. Right.

[Rich Davis]

I mean, it's probably the most listened to. Dan Patrick, however. Come on.

[Danny G]

Well, then I got to say this with a little. I got to preface this by saying, you know, when you're a little kid, you have no perspective. Especially when you're a little 80s kid. And you're a little sexist 80s kid. That was me. Little sexist 80s kid.

[Rich Davis]

You know what the story goes, Danny G. Covino didn't believe the Go Gos played instruments.

[Danny G]

I didn't. I thought that was fake. I believed that chipmunks were more real than the Go Gos. I'm like, there's no way girls play the drums and guitar.

[Rich Davis]

This guy's terrible.

[Steve Covino]

Very sexist.

[Danny G]

I was like, I believe Alvin and Simon and Theodore are real musicians. I don't know about these Go Go's.

[Rich Davis]

Do you hear this guy?

[Danny G]

That's how I felt as a kid.

[Rich Davis]

You've come a long way.

[Danny G]

I've evolved that. You know what? It should show you, man, what a great guy Camino turned out to be.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah.

[Danny G]

Because he was like the worst 80s kid that ever was.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah, that's not what we were thinking, bro.

[Danny G]

It was the 80s. Okay, so I evolved a lot. But when I was an 80s kid, there was like one girl on your little league team, Right. Looking back as a girl, dad, as a respectful, evolved man. I say, man, good for them.

[Rich Davis]

How cool.

[Danny G]

How cool is that? But back then when I was a nose picking little sexist brat, I was like, man, this girl ruins the whole photo. She ruins the whole team photo because it made your team look soft, right? You display the photo and your friends come over like, you got a girl on your team. Yeah, I guess looking back, I'm like, wow, she was ahead of her time. Good for her. That was great. She was good. She held her own back. Then when I was a kid, I'm like, look at her holding the sign, ruining the photo. A little Dutch boy girl haircut. That's what I felt. Not gonna lie.

[Rich Davis]

Ruined the photo.

[Danny G]

Ruin the photo.

[Rich Davis]

My examples are not as terrible as Kavino's. I'm a good man, but I Hear what you're saying.

[Danny G]

Or how about the kid that had the. He was, like, a little bit of a husky kid, so he had to get an oversized jersey or something. He had to wear, like, oversized pants, and they didn't match anyone else's team. Like this kid. This kid right here. Husky kid.

[Rich Davis]

I had.

[Danny G]

He ruined the photo.

[Rich Davis]

I had a. I had a. All right, now you're talking. Because I had a. What do you mean, now I'm talking? I had a team photo for one of my Little Leagues. Remember, they would put on a plaque and you put that crap in your room because you were proud of it. Like my Little League team. Right.

[Danny G]

That's what I'm saying.

[Rich Davis]

There was one kid who wore jeans.

[Danny G]

What a pathetic team you played for.

[Rich Davis]

Two kid wore jeans, Little League picture day. So here I am, you know, it's like, probably 1991, you know, the, you know, minor league Red Sox, and I'm with all my buddies. Everyone's got their navy blue Red Sox, you know, T shirts.

[Danny G]

Who was on your team? Kelly Leak of the Bad News Bears. They ride a moped there.

[Rich Davis]

You know, we had the. The navy blue T shirts. My kids, teams now, they have, like, professional uniforms.

[Danny G]

Wear jeans. On the Little League team, besides the coach, and he's like, 1970 slacks.

[Rich Davis]

Has everyone else recognized that as parents? My kids, my dad, sons, and T ball. He has a home and road jersey. They have legitimate uniforms.

[Danny G]

No, we had ones from the 60s, and we got them, like, leftover.

[Rich Davis]

You recycled? No, we did. We had.

[Danny G]

Mine smelled like cigars.

[Rich Davis]

We had T shirts. Like, if I. Let's say I was the brewers that year. We had a blue T shirt that just said Brewers. Like, they just printed T shirts. White baseball pants and T shirts. Now, my kid, my kids on the Rockies, we have home and away jerseys, and we have, like. They have purple baseball socks and matching belts. And they're five.

[Danny G]

But you know what? You could relate, because that kid, for whatever reason, maybe they made a stupid face or they showed up in jeans, ruined the phone.

[Rich Davis]

I remember having a.

[Danny G]

And that's what LeBron James did. This is an honor. It's the All Star team. Hey, let me ask you one quick question, Rich. The guy that backs into his parking spot thinks he's better than you. LeBron James is there with his other contemporaries, other superstars, and he's wearing street clothes. What is he, the coach? Does he think he's better than me?

[Rich Davis]

He's not playing. What, do you got a problem? It's LeBron James.

[Danny G]

That's the point, dude, you got to play the humble card, because people are going to say, what does LeBron James.

[Rich Davis]

You want him to suit up so that the suit up dude?

[Danny G]

Is that asking a whole lot? You're already there. You're taking a team photo, Are you? Not on the team.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah, but he's not playing.

[Danny G]

So what?

[Rich Davis]

He. He's been to, like, 20 of them.

[Danny G]

Exactly. You're not caring about it, so why should we? The fans?

[Rich Davis]

All right, if you want to share some funny stories about ruining the photo.

[Danny G]

I have a few I haven't even.

[Rich Davis]

Gotten to mine the team photo as a kid where the one dude in the front row was wearing jeans and I couldn't as a little kid. My OCD was like, why is this stupid kid?

[Danny G]

I hate that for you. We should track that kid down, get beat down.

[Rich Davis]

Why is this one kid wearing jeans in our baseball team photo? I hated it.

[Danny G]

Looking back, you were mad at the kid, but you have to now as an adult, evolved adult, say it's because his parents didn't love him.

[Rich Davis]

Now, this sounds super douchey. My wife and I were on our honeymoon, so let me preface by saying that, because it's not like I'm some world traveler, but my wife and I have a photo of us on our honeymoon. We did a little trip around Europe. Only time I've ever done it. It was awesome. So for our honeymoon, one of the stops on our trip was France. One of the most beautiful sights you'll ever see.

[Danny G]

Did you get a wassail?

[Rich Davis]

Oh, of course I got a wassail. You got a warson? You know I got a wassail.

[Danny G]

Tell me about it.

[Rich Davis]

Not a croissant, a wassant. The background is picturesque. Like, you know when celebrities are in there, like douchey yachts in the French Riviera.

[Danny G]

Yeah. Barf. Yeah. Yeah.

[Rich Davis]

Behind me were mountains, the water, and all those rich people's boats. My wife and I have a photo.

[Danny G]

Oh. And in the background is Odell Beckham Jr. And Victor Cruz. And they're wearing Timberlands. No, they're posing on a boat.

[Rich Davis]

My wife and I have this picture of her and I, and right as the person, click. The picture of my wife and I with the most picturesque background. Some tiny little kid walks in our frame, but it looks like he's standing next to us, like he's our child.

[Steve Covino]

So, wait, he had a big head then.

[Rich Davis]

So we. Yeah, yeah.

[Danny G]

Big rich Daniel.

[Rich Davis]

So I have, like, the most beautiful picture of my wife and I, and next to us, it looks like we adopted, like, a little Dominican kid or something. I'm like, who is this kid in our photo race? Well, that's what he looks like, Danny. So that's one. There's a rule that goes along with this so that pictures aren't ruined.

[Danny G]

That's a little kid. A big, poppy photobomb. So the photobomb will ruin a photobomb.

[Rich Davis]

The photobomb's interesting because if you're at a bar taking a photo, hey, you got together with your old college buddies. It's funny one time when some dope at the bar is like, yay. But if he does it more than once, then you gotta be like, hey, dude, scram. Cause I get it. The one time photobomb is funny.

[Danny G]

Like, hey, now, Google could fix that easily.

[Rich Davis]

But I had to bring this up because I'm at the park with my daughter and her friends, and my daughter has three of her little best buddies. Their little girl squad. They're all seven years old, eight years old, and it's like her little best pals and they were all. They had all come from gymnastics, so they were looking all cute in their little outfits. So I was like, hey, girls, let Emmy's dad here take a picture. There was some other girl that's, like, not in their crew. Was like, me too. How do you tell a little kid get out of the picture?

[Danny G]

Oh, it's like the little kid that didn't dress up for Halloween.

[Rich Davis]

I was like. I was like, that's cool. All right, now one without her. What are you gonna do? Can you tell a little kid get out of the picture? My daughter and her best friends and some random girl at the park. Like, hey, random girl at the park, you're gonna sit this one out.

[Danny G]

You asked that girl to take the picture. That's what you do. And you jump in it.

[Rich Davis]

And the truffle shuffle. And Danny, the other lesson learned here at Cavino and Rich, as we talk about LeBron, as Kavino said, ruining the all star photo.

[Danny G]

He did. I would love for Danny G. Because again, he's a LeBron superfan and Lakers fan. I'm not a LeBron hater, but in my opinion, he did.

[Rich Davis]

There's. There's.

[Steve Covino]

Wait, make it sound like I have a LeBron poster above my bed.

[Danny G]

You don't. I thought you did.

[Steve Covino]

No, I'm a Lakers fan. And whoever our lead dog is, then I'll support that player.

[Danny G]

Do you agree, though? Like, that was a sort of big time.

[Rich Davis]

The moment.

[Steve Covino]

It's a bad look. Yeah.

[Rich Davis]

So I have to wrap this up, I have a lesson and Covino's dad has a solution. Yeah, Covino's dad.

[Danny G]

How would your dad say it? Covino?

[Rich Davis]

The lesson is if there's a new person in the, in the crew, your brother's new girlfriend or hey, that's, you.

[Danny G]

Know, Uncle Hanks floozy of the month.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah, Uncle Hank's floozy of the month. When you take that Christmas photo, that person's on the end. That way they could be cropped out when their time is over.

[Steve Covino]

They've all heard about this by now though, so it's ruined. Yeah, but, but like they know what you're up to.

[Rich Davis]

But if, like, if you're hanging out with all your old high school pals.

[Danny G]

They should also have the wherewithal to know it's their job to take the photo. How about they pick up on that rule?

[Rich Davis]

Take the photo or if you're in it, go on the end. Because you might eventually be cropped out of this bad boy. It's just the rule, like you gotta know. But I am in favor of that person being in the photo.

[Danny G]

Sometimes I offer up because I don't want to be in that photo. I'm like, you know what? I'll take it, you know, because I don't want to be with you guys.

[Rich Davis]

Danny. I learned that lesson on an episode.

[Danny G]

I'm not seeing a bright future with this little get together on.

[Rich Davis]

On an episode of How I Met yout Mother. This is a great lesson they learned where if the person's permanent, that could be the first photo. So I'm always cool with the new person being in the photo. Just put them on the end. But Covino's dad has the best solution.

[Danny G]

My dad was the inventor. This is true story, guys. The inventor of Photoshop what he used to do. And this is true. My grandma, every grandma had like walls of photos, right? High school photos were still framed like graduation photos, family photos, wedding photos. We don't live that life the way we did growing up where there was a million photo frames all over the wall.

[Rich Davis]

By the way, in a related story, today I saw, I think it was on Buzzfeed, Gen Z. Like teenagers and 20 year olds have a new fascination with printing out like tangible photos.

[Danny G]

So they're saying that maybe it's on the come up.

[Rich Davis]

It's on the come up, come back. That the idea of printing out photos is fascinating to a teenager.

[Danny G]

So it would always be who's that guy? And it was like the ex husband or ex boyfriend or ex Somebody. It was a lot of, like, people who were in these photos that weren't necessarily in the family anymore. So my dad would cut out celebrity heads of. Of anybody. Of John Davidson, the host of Hollywood Squares, or Tony Danza or Henry, whoever's famous at the time.

[Steve Covino]

Pictures from the T. Yeah.

[Danny G]

Steve Urkel.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah.

[Danny G]

He'd cut out, like, Mr. T's head or something and he would put them all over, you know, these people's heads.

[Rich Davis]

He'd get a glue stick, so you just put them on.

[Danny G]

You'd go over my house or my grandmother's house. There'd be all these, like, random celebrity heads covering the other heads. Wait a minute. Frame.

[Rich Davis]

Judith Light was at Thanksgiving. 91. Yeah.

[Danny G]

So my dad claims that he's the true inventor of Photoshop because he was the first to do this in the early 80s. Now, again, how did I do this? I pulled the LeBron. So I'm not innocent here. And your thoughts on him ruining. Ruining the team photo at the All Star Game?

[Rich Davis]

I mean, did he. Did he not? We'll talk a little LeBron and all your feedback, Kavino and Rich. And for Dan Patrick, having fun Tuesday morning. Let's go.

What if you ask two different people the same set of questions? Even if the questions are the same, our experiences can lead us to drastically different answers. I'm Minnie Driver and I set out to explore this idea in my podcast Mini Questions. Over the years we have had some incredible guests. People like Courteney Cox, star of the infinitely beloved sitcom Friends, egot winner Viola Davis, and former Prime Minister of the uk Tony Blair. And now Mini Questions is returning for another season. We've asked an entirely new set of guests our seven questions, including Jane Lynch, Delaney Rowe and Cord Jefferson. Each episode is a new person's story with new lessons, new memories, new and new connections to show us how we're both similar and unique.

It was a moment that should have broken me, but just because of how I was raised and my bullishness and arrogance to want to be great hardened me, it gave me a platform to be so singularly focused on greatness. We all have moments like this. Something happens that's supposed to break us, but it's in these moments that we discover what we're really made of. I promise you, if anyone knows this, it's me.

We had to go out to farmers and convince them it was really damn hard.

[Danny G]

I was always so fascinated by how.

[Rich Davis]

People navigate and find their way.

[Minnie Driver]

Ever wanted to know how Nike builds emotion into the Jordan brand?

[Danny G]

You have to be obsessed with the current state of the human condition and.

It doesn't stop there. What about how Glean reinvented knowledge? Search with AI you can learn about how a Michelin star chef is redesigning seeds for flavor and how Pixar is nurturing a creative culture.

[Danny G]

There's no way girls could play instruments. Girls can't play the drums and guitar.

[Rich Davis]

This is fake 80s Camino.

[Danny G]

I also had chipmunk punk and I thought it was real. So that's where my mind was. I was a sexist, misogynistic 80s little pumpkin pie haircutted brat. But that's the way we grew up in I evolved since then. I'm gonna tell you about my evolution too because I have a story. We're talking about ruining pictures. That's what we're talking about. Ruining pictures. Certain people ruin pictures. That certain person is LeBron James and LeBron. We don't want the smoke. If you're going to send Nasty Grams to anybody, send them to Doug Gottlieb, not to Kavino.

Covino and Rich in for Dan Patrick.

[Rich Davis]

I feel like we made a lot of great points. Kavino brought this up because LeBron Dre, LeBron James, LeBron James. He was in his street clothes for the NBA All Star photo and Cavino said he couldn't have thrown on a warm up shirt or something.

[Danny G]

I think it's a disrespect to his teammates. You say if it was me I'd be honored to jump in a photo or for him to jump in a photo with me.

[Rich Davis]

You said he ruined the photo op by by wearing street clothes when everyone else is in uniform. And we, you know, brought up the basic rules. When someone photobombs you. Ah, it's funny at first. If they try to do it a second time, it's like, all right, loser, get out of here. I was saying, when you try to take a picture of your kid with, like, their friend and some ancillary kid at the playground's like, me, too. You're like, how do you tell a little kid to get out of there? The new relative, the boyfriend or girlfriend of the relative at a holiday has to be on the end of the photo so they could be cropped out when they're out of the mix.

[Danny G]

Now I'm calling out LeBron. I say it respectfully, but I'm also not innocent here, because, like I said, I've evolved. Look at me now, man. What a great guy. I don't back into parking spots. I don't think I'm better than you. I'm not sexist anymore. I'm a girl, Dad. I watched the wnba. I'm a great guy. But, Danny G, there was a point in the early 2000s when I was a mega bag of douche, right? I really was.

[Steve Covino]

It's hard to believe.

[Danny G]

No, no, no, wait.

[Rich Davis]

Camino says, but you got to hear.

[Danny G]

Me out, though, because I really. I still think there's a part of me that's right. But looking back, I was wrong.

[Rich Davis]

When Camino says, I'm a girl, dad. I'm not sexist. Like, when. When a racist person goes, I have. I have black friends. Like, come on.

[Danny G]

Yeah, so come on. I remember one of our buddies was having a themed party, and I don't know, that was, like, painful to my ears back then. I'm like, I'm not doing that. What?

[Rich Davis]

But, like, why are you so reluctant?

[Danny G]

Our buddy had a pink party. And I'm like, what is that? What is that?

[Steve Covino]

Sounds lame.

[Danny G]

Exactly, right? And especially I'm in my early 20s. I'm trying to be super cool guy. My girlfriend's like, we gotta go. And I'm like, I'm not. What? What is a pink party? Everybody's wearing pink. I'm like, yeah, everybody but me.

[Rich Davis]

And I was there. I was there.

[Danny G]

So, dude, everyone shows up, and all the dudes, you know, they're wearing their pink button down that they got at express or structure at the time. Everyone's busting out their pink outfit. And I showed up. I am not lying. I'm true to my word here. I showed up, blue button down, and everyone's like, it's a pink party. I'M like, I don't care what party. You're lucky I'm here. But here I am thinking I'm better than you. Just like LeBron. Yeah. That's why I'm speaking from experience.

[Rich Davis]

You were the A hole of the night. I remember.

[Danny G]

Look at those photos now. I want to punch myself in the face. I'm like, what a douche. Look at me. Why was I such a jerk? That's how I feel. I'm the only guy posing with a bunch of dudes in pink shirts. And I'm wearing a blue shirt. Like, I'm cooler than all of you.

[Rich Davis]

No one, no one necessarily was like, oh, man, I can't wait to wear a pink shirt. But when someone said, hey, we're having a theme party. It was at a really cool club in New York City. We were in our 20s. Danny, when I tell you the picture is all the, you know, beautiful girls and the dudes are all wearing like, you know, like a pink T shirt or button down. It was a theme. You don't necessarily love the theme, but when you get invited to a party with a theme, you go along with it. When they have that fanatics white party every year and everyone wears, you know, they're. All the rich people go to that party and they wear their linen.

[Steve Covino]

Those diddy white parties you used to go to.

[Rich Davis]

I never went to a diddy party. Don't start.

[Danny G]

That rumor that you hated.

[Rich Davis]

Cavino would be the guy that would show up to that fanatics white party. That. Who's the guy? I'm drawing a blank. The guy that runs fanatics.

[Danny G]

Oh, Mark. What's his name? I forget.

[Rich Davis]

You forget?

[Danny G]

Yeah. Just like you did. Carry on, Mark.

[Steve Covino]

Douche with money.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah, yeah, that's him. You'd be the guy that shows up in like a black T shirt.

[Danny G]

And I did that with the blue button down. The point is, I ruined the photo. I ruined the photo. Looking back. Who's that?

[Rich Davis]

A hole.

[Danny G]

Oh, that was Covino. Too cool to wear the pink shirt. And again, I deserve the criticism.

[Rich Davis]

Michael. Michael Rubin.

[Danny G]

Michael Rubin.

[Rich Davis]

Not Mark.

[Danny G]

How do you criticize me when you're the dummy talking about it and didn't even think of his name? I didn't get the Mark Rubin invite.

[Rich Davis]

Michael Rubin.

[Danny G]

Michael Rubin.

[Rich Davis]

Tight.

[Danny G]

You know, by the way, I forgot his name on purpose when he ruined the baseball jerseys this past season. So your thoughts? I want to know two things. Did LeBron ruin the photo? And the times as someone. Or maybe it was you that ruined the photo.

[Rich Davis]

Chris in la, you're on with Kavino and Rich in for dp. What's up, man?

[Katherine Legge]

Good morning, fellows. Hey. Love your show.

[Rich Davis]

Thanks, man.

[Katherine Legge]

You know, I think you guys are spot on, man. I think this is. This is LeBron being LeBron. He always wants to be the center of attention, and he's all about team.

[Danny G]

As long as the team revolves around him.

[Katherine Legge]

And think about it, 10 years from.

[Danny G]

Now, 20 years from now, when someone looks at that picture, what's the main.

[Katherine Legge]

Thing that's going to stand out? LeBron.

[Danny G]

It looks like he's the coach. Like, he's better than them. I don't like that. If I was Harden or kd, I'm like, he's trying to big time me here. No, I don't like that.

[Rich Davis]

Won't put on his jersey. He's not playing that dude.

[Danny G]

You're acting like it's so hard to put on shorts. To put on shorts in the shirt. That's not asking a lot.

[Steve Covino]

Well, to be fair, he's dealing with an ankle and foot injury, so that would have aggravated the injury. Put shorts on.

[Danny G]

Yeah, I'm sure. Just like it aggravated him when he put on his outfit in the morning. Get out of my face.

[Rich Davis]

Ken in Ohio, you're on. What's up, buddy?

[Katherine Legge]

Morning, fellas. How y'all?

[Rich Davis]

We're kidding, man. What's on your mind?

[Katherine Legge]

Hey, listen, everybody's calling Mr. Mr. LeBron James here. Here's a fact, a straight fact. This young man was in high school. He's just a crown prince back then. And during that period when he was in high school, you would have zero contact with agents. You were to see zero gifts from anybody. Okay? Bottom line is Prince LeBron at that time got a nice, real nice Hummer from an agent and then turned around and wrecked it. And the only reason. The only reason it was ever known is because he reckoned and became public record on a reporter. Got a reporter, you know, reported on it.

[Rich Davis]

So what's the. What's. What's your point, Tim? Ken, the point is.

[Katherine Legge]

The point is any other athlete at that time would have lost everything as far as any kind of amateur status.

[Rich Davis]

I'm still not following.

[Danny G]

He's a privileged guy. People bend the rules for LeBron, but.

[Rich Davis]

LeBron for the last 20 years has.

[Steve Covino]

Done an amazing job.

[Danny G]

Yeah, that's how we started the conversation, and that's why it stands out even more. Danny G. Yeah. And then when you think about why is everyone hating on the All Star Game so much this year? This only adds to the story.

[Rich Davis]

They don't care about. Are you pointing out, though, I'm just playing devil's advocate.

[Danny G]

Yeah.

[Rich Davis]

Are we pointing out just another trivial thing where LeBron would be like, really another critic? Now people are criticizing my street clothes.

[Danny G]

To me, it's a really real life moment. We've all been there. I've been there. I've been that person. I think he even knows, like, yeah, I missed that because he could have easily put on his outfit.

[Rich Davis]

So you're saying LeBron James. LeBron James wearing street clothes where everyone else has a uniform is equivalent to when the kid wore jeans in my little league picture.

[Danny G]

Yes, it's fair. Ruin the photo.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah.

[Steve Covino]

Oh, really quick, Rich, I'm sorry. I was just gonna say that your boy Arnie Spanier texted into the show.

[Rich Davis]

What's up, Arnie? I love that guy.

[Steve Covino]

I'm sure. Yeah. Weekend personality here on the network. And I'm sure people have maybe some experience with this when it comes to work photos. He says, fox Sports said, let's take a picture with all the hosts. So I jumped in. They said, no, only the Monday through Friday hosts.

[Rich Davis]

The real ones.

[Steve Covino]

I had to leave.

[Danny G]

That's horrible, man. That's. That's mean. Yeah, I don't like that.

[Rich Davis]

Well, put Arnie on the end so we could crop him out if we want to.

[Danny G]

Exactly. That's how you handle it.

[Rich Davis]

Love you, buddy. Danny.

[Danny G]

No, no, we met. Arnie, can you take the photo? That's what we met.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah. Arnie, call the show this morning and then I'll edit you out of the podcast. Vers.

[Danny G]

Yeah. That's cold blooded. All right. How about this, though? Danny G, can you give me who was on that team, that maybe it was their first time on that team, or maybe it's a younger player and they're just honored to be there. You don't think that sort of ruins the moment for that guy who's proud to be in a photo and a teammate of LeBron James? It ruins the moment for that guy. You know, I think Tatum's on that team, but, like, he's been there, done that. But for a younger player, Tyler Hero. Okay. Like Tyler Herro. You don't think it meant a little something to him that he played in a time where the great LeBron James was on his all star team?

[Katherine Legge]

Oh, man.

[Danny G]

You got a photo, dad, Tyler Hero is an old guy. He busts out the photo. He's like, yeah, look, I played on A team with LeBron. LeBron's not even in the uniform. You don't Think it kind of ruins it for those guys. You know, it's a slight. It wasn't intentional, in my opinion, but it was a misstep that could be perceived as disrespectful to his teammates. And as a fan and as a guy who's been there and done that and seen it, it rubs. Rubs me the wrong way. The B side to Johnny Gill.

[Rich Davis]

I got it. I got to tell you, two quickies. Number one, Danny. This is the vain part of me. I feel like you're not as vain as me or especially Covino. If you took a photo with one of your heroes, but you looked like crap in the picture, would that haunt you?

[Steve Covino]

No, I would let it go.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah. Like, I. I have pictures with some of my heroes, but I feel like I don't look good. Like, I have. Like, I have a picture with Joe Montana and I feel like I look weak as hell. And it's like, can I display a photo where you look like, oh, man, I look terrible that day? Or is that just. That's vanity taking over? Right? And how about this, Cavino? Every year for a few years, I had gone to this old school wrestling convention with some of my buddies just because we were reminiscing, you know, it was. It was fun to see those old school wrestlers that we grew up with. Right. Guys like Sergeant Slaughter, they go there in their costume, right? Like, they play it up, like, because they know fans are paid 50 bucks or whatever to take a picture. There's Demolition, wore their face makeup. Jake the Snake Robert showed up there. I'm not even joking. Wearing a Golden State Warriors T shirt and, like, baggy pants.

[Danny G]

And I'm like, like, dad jeans.

[Rich Davis]

Like, I'm thinking, like, what do you assume? He should go there?

[Steve Covino]

Yeah.

[Rich Davis]

In his Jake the Snake gear.

[Danny G]

You would think. Yeah. Sort of ruin the moment.

[Steve Covino]

That would be like MC Hammer showing up to a meet and greet back in the day in Underoos.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah. No. Where's the Hammer pants, buddy?

[Danny G]

Speaking of ruining photos, we were at the Volume party for super bowl weekend, and we got invited to Colin Cowherd's party. Right, The Volume party. We hadn't seen Colin in a minute. And, you know, we're fans. We're filling in for Colin on Friday. Yeah, we don't have any photos with Colin. None. And people may find that odd. Like, I worked at KROC New York for eight years. I don't have one photo of me and Howard Stern. Not one.

[Rich Davis]

Sometimes you don't cross paths.

[Danny G]

Yeah. You just don't Cross paths and you know you wish you had that photo. You rarely see Colin because we're on different schedules. He works in a different building. But, you know, I'm a fan. So we're there at the party. He's like, stars. Yeah. Okay, Colin. We jump in a photo. We get in a photo, me and Rich. John Middelkoff takes the photo. He may have taken the worst photo that ever was, and I love that guy. And by the way, I hit it. I love John. He's great.

[Rich Davis]

You guys hit it off. I thought Camino was gonna try to replace me with John middle.

[Danny G]

I hate everybody. I love. I thought John was great. I'm like, dude, you're awesome. Because he was, like, real, like, he was real intense. I love talking to the guy.

[Rich Davis]

Not a great photographer.

[Danny G]

Not a great photographer. Speaking of photos. Ruined.

[Rich Davis]

Moment that should have broken me, but just because of how I was raised and my bullishness and arrogance to want to be great hardened me, it gave me a platform to be so singularly focused on greatness. We all have moments like this. Something happens that's supposed to break us, but it's in these moments that we discover what we're really made of. I promise you, if anyone knows this, it's me. I'm Ashlyn Harris.

I'm Tomer Cohen, LinkedIn's chief product officer. If you're just as curious as I am about the way things are built, the insights behind what it takes to create a world renowned product, then tune in to my podcast Building One. There's so much to learn, like how Patagonia innovates with its supply chain.

[Rich Davis]

We had to go out to farmers and convince them it was really damn hard.

[Minnie Driver]

Or the way Adobe thinks about the first interaction somebody has with Photoshop.

[Danny G]

I was always so fascinated by how.

[Rich Davis]

People navigate and find their way Ever.

[Minnie Driver]

Wanted to know how Nike builds emotion into the Jordan brand?

[Danny G]

You have to be obsessed with the.

[Rich Davis]

Current state of the human condition.

[Minnie Driver]

And it doesn't stop there. What about how Gleam reinvented knowledge Search with AI, you can learn about how a Michelin star chef is redesigning seeds for flavor and how Pixar is nurturing a creative culture.

Covino and Rich and for Dan Patrick, the Dan Patrick Hatrick. Day two. We were on yesterday will be here tomorrow and we head to Philly on Thursday. We're doing an event with Dallas Goddard for Fox Sports Radio on Friday. We're filling in for Colin Cowherd. Yeah. But we're Normally on from 5 to 7 on the east, 2 to 4pm on the west. Out here in LA, the mean streets of La Vato Loco. Covino and Rich follow rate and review our podcast. Let's wrap up this LeBron James ruining the pictures thing.

[Rich Davis]

By the way, speaking of out here in la.

[Danny G]

Yeah.

[Rich Davis]

First hour, we talked about great TV show endings and how Cobra Kai really was like the cheesiest, best ending. Did you see they pretty much were driving past the Fox Sports Radio building?

[Danny G]

Absolutely. And I loved it.

[Rich Davis]

Like all the B roll in Cobra.

[Danny G]

Kai, they drive right past Fox Sports.

[Rich Davis]

Right past us, like on the corner of where we are. And then, you know, Encino Commons, Danny, right down the block, that sign that says Encino Commons.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah.

[Rich Davis]

Of course there's a scene that I don't want to give it away, but let's just say they're running in the street and it's right in this neighborhood.

[Danny G]

Fox country, kind of like Rocky Balboa.

[Rich Davis]

They do, they do a playoff of Rocky a little bit. And it's just really funny that that show that we both love filmed right in this neighborhood.

[Danny G]

I thought that was great. For real. So, yeah, we talked about that the first hour. We're the league leaders of Cobra Kai discussions here on Fox Sports Radio. Let's be honest, the Sakai Takai was better than All Star Weekend.

[Rich Davis]

No doubt.

[Danny G]

And we're wrapping it up. Is it the biggest deal in the world? No, but it's noticeable. And it's a funny story. LeBron James took an All Star game photo, team photo in his street clothes.

[Rich Davis]

Everyone else had a uniform.

[Danny G]

Everyone else had their uniform.

[Rich Davis]

Ruined the photo. We were sharing some funny stories and you know, again, the new person should either take the photo or go on the end. And here's another tip. When you're with the wife of your girlfriend and you're, you know, wanting to capture a moment because what do wives and girlfriends always complain about? We don't have any pictures together. You have to pick just the right person. You know who I always look for a 20 something year old female. Because she knows angles, she knows how to take a photo. Don't hold your phone up and be like, who could take a picture? Hey, old guy, don't hand your phone to an 80 year old guy.

[Danny G]

Never hand your phone to a guy named Ebenezer.

[Rich Davis]

Or a guy for any, for any guy for that matter.

[Danny G]

I think I know how button do I press.

[Steve Covino]

Look for a hipster to somebody that looks tech savvy.

[Danny G]

Yeah.

[Rich Davis]

Like, look for someone that's like, put it in portrait mode upside down. Like, you know, some girl that try to point out a girl that looks that she cares too much about Instagram. That's who you want taking your photo. David in Florida. What's up, David?

[Katherine Legge]

Yeah. So I was a bat boy for my older brother's softball team.

[Danny G]

Yeah.

[Katherine Legge]

And we just won the championship. So we're going set up and take a picture. So this older dude on the team said I couldn't be on it. So I got all in my feelings. I started crying, I started walking the other way. My brother said, what the. What the hell you doing, man? Get in the darn picture. Stop being a big wuss. So I walked away. So he got pissed, threw a softball upside my head, and then my other two brothers got in a fight. So the team picture got taken. But they were arguing and it was all jacked up.

[Rich Davis]

All because of you, the ball, the bat boy.

[Danny G]

I kind of want to see this photo now. Their faces are red. It sounds like a great photo.

[Rich Davis]

Can I tell you that? For us, it sort of annoyed me too. You know, I play on softball teams out here in la. Sometimes they're a good team, sometimes they're not. We find we won like the Valley championship. Almost as big as the Sakai Takai. And when they did the group picture at the end, like, hey, we, you know, we won this season, like some random dude that just hung around with the team went in the photo and I don't know why, it bothered me a little bit.

[Danny G]

Disrespect, it bothered me a little bit. Yeah.

[Rich Davis]

Some people don't have picture etiquette. Wrap it up. Christian in Texas.

[Steve Covino]

You know what if he goes real.

[Danny G]

Quick, 20 seconds, real quick, buddy.

[Katherine Legge]

Hey, I just want to say that.

[Danny G]

I feel like we're being a little harsh on LeBron.

[Rich Davis]

I agree. It's a picture.

[Steve Covino]

It's just a picture.

[Rich Davis]

I mean, Kobe did it back in.

[Danny G]

I forgot what year it was, but.

[Katherine Legge]

He did the same thing.

[Danny G]

He was wearing like a suit and his two wrongs don't make it right.

[Steve Covino]

But I know his suit would have been a little clean.

[Rich Davis]

But I just think we are being tough on LeBron. That's why I have his back.

[Danny G]

Tough?

[Rich Davis]

He's an NBA player.

[Danny G]

It's a funny conversation.

[Rich Davis]

Yo, LeBron, you hear that Rich Davis got your back. You know who doesn't? Covino and Doug Gottlieb. Some people just know they could save hundreds on car insurance by checking Allstate First. Like, you know, to check for the nearest bathroom first before the game starts. Now you're heading in the wrong direction and it sounds like your team's taking the lead. Checking first is smart, so check Allstate first for a quote that could save you hundreds. You're in good hands with Allstate. Savings vary subject to terms, conditions and availability. Allstate Fire and Casualty Insurance Company and affiliates Northbrook, Illinois Black History Month is.
