Nobody Is Crushing This Quarantine Better Than Bill Russell

Now this is the type of wholesome quarantine content I needed to see this morning. I think by now we're all going a little crazy where every day is a bit of a struggle to keep your sanity. I'll admit, blogging sure helps because it keeps me busy, but for everyone else out there I can only imagine the struggle. Maybe you've spent your quarantine coming up with silly games or challenges to pass the time, at this point nothing is too stupid.

Well, enter the living legend himself Bill Russell. This is certainly a scary time for someone like Russell who is a young 86 years old, so it's great to see him looking healthy and finding ways to pass the time. I'm going to go out on a limb and say that was the most dominant popcorn catch in the history of popcorn catching. That's a man that still has elite timing and coordination, two things that made him one of the greatest players in history. He did that shit with his eyes closed! Normally you'd see some sort of wild reaction for such an accomplishment, but not from Russell. Hard to be impressed with anything these days when you remember you won 11 titles in 13 years including 8 in a row. 

I'm just glad that Russell is staying safe and looking good. Guys like him, Mike Gorman and Tommy are at risk and all that matters is that all three come out of this pandemic with a clean bill of health. Very jealous of his wife too that she gets to be quarantined with the legend. I can think of nothing better than being trapped in a house and just listening to Bill Russell tell old stories about his playing days. They don't make em like Bill Russell anymore and that's a damn shame because it doesn't get much better
