Before taking questions, Covington sat down, picked up the microphone and immediately addressed the basketball legend. "I'm going to start this off because I'm the man of the hour, the man of the show. I want to ask LeBron what does he mean by,...

    Yesterday morning I came across a Tim Pool video telling us that because Kid Rock and Dana White are back to supporting Bud Light, somehow we Normals have won the fight and somehow it's OK to drink Bud Light again.
