“Listen, Paul Pierce, I’m gonna make a run at Paul Pierce,” Portnoy said. “I’m gonna make a run at his a–. I reached out. Contact has been made. He got fired from ESPN for having strippers and blunts in the background of a livestream. Whatever, I don’t give a f— about that. We’d love to have him.”

Barstool Sports seems like it would be a great fit for Paul Pierce. He would be allowed to party with strippers as much as he wants, and he’d have a young generation at his disposal.

If Pierce does land with Barstool, he’d join fellow prominent athlete Deion Sanders, as well as some lower-level former players who have decided to join the popular company.

I’d expect Paul Pierce to have a contract with Barstool Sports very soon.
