Listen, we're not here to slander Paul Pierce. The man—nay, THE TRUTH—may not be a once-in-a-generation NBA talent, but he was one of his generation's best, widely know for being one of the least athletic-looking athletic dudes in Association history. Perhaps because of that stealth factor, Pierce made a career out of blowing by guys with his duck-footed drive, all while draining game winner after LeBron-daggering game winner. Ask any modern Celtics fan, and they'll tell you all that and more, but what they won't mention is this newly infamous footage of Paul Pierce's 1995 McDonald's All-American Dunk Contest performance, which is, to put it kindly, one of the worst things we've ever seen full stop. Sorry Paul, we hate to do this to ya.

Pete Cowan took ill after going home to England following Players Championship, and his symptoms indicate COVID-19

As we have seen over the last few weeks, it's impossible to fully take sports away from athletes. Even if our superstars can't play their respective sports at the moment, they're using that energy for other athletic endeavors. Lionel Messi is juggling toilet paper, Brooks Koepka is learning how to win a major with the opposite hand and OJ Simpson is still out there hitting the links.

The people we haven't given enough time to are the announcers. What does an individual do when one's livelihood, hobby and world is snatched away? In freelance rugby commentator Nick Heath's case, you don't stop play-by-playing. Nick may not have rugby at the moment, but he does have all of life to break down instead.

As you and yours (hopefully) hunker down for another week of Coronavirus quarantine (Seriously, let's do this, people), here's a cute video to remind you of what awaits on the other side: SPORTS! Specifically, the Major League Baseball season. At some point. We think.

Anyway, Freddie Freeman is staying sharp during his break. The Atlanta Braves four-time All-Star hit a career-high 38 dingers last season. And by the looks of it, that power stroke is already in mid-season form. Watch as he takes his three-year-old son Charlie DEEP in their backyard:

Hey, the kid's got to learn not to leave pitches up in the zone at some point, right? May as well be from his dad.
Also, kudos to Freddie's wife, Chelsea, for her continued video skills. In October, she captured an adorable clip of Freddie coming across a kid dressed up as him for Halloween.
