Saw some old clips of Magic Johnson NCAA days.
Got to talking with my buddy about his HIV diagnosis etc.
How it was death sentence at the time.
How HAART likely saved him and turned it to a largely manageable condition.

However, I can't think of a single athlete that's admitted to being HIV positive since.
I find it unbelievable there haven't been any.

While these guys aren't gay, or IV drug users they lay pipe like none other. They clearly frick raw dog as they have kids out of wedlock.

Have there been any?
Would teams cut a player?

Thoughts?

Except for the extremely unlucky people like Ryan White and Arthur Ashe (and with blood screening, there simply aren’t any more of these cases), it’s really tough to get HIV if you aren’t using needles or having sex with men.

Straight men don't get HIV through intercourse. Magic def paid the price for having sugar in his tank.

Greg Louganis shocked nobody with his announcement.

All high-profile black men are over 50% ghey.

This is known.

If almost every rapper is a peter puffer, it isn't much of a stretch to assume it is much more prevalent in sports, particularly the NBA, than we think.

Your chances of getting HIV in heterosexual intercourse are hovering somewhere around lightning strikes.

There are tons of athletes who are gay.

No matter what they say in Catholic schools, sex as a straight guy who only bones women is far lower risk than being a bottom. Sex as a straight female who only bones dudes the old fashioned way isn’t as low risk but still lower risk.

In Catholic school they like to make you think it’s easy to catch but it’s a pretty fragile virus.

If this is true then the chances of them getting HIV is basically zero.

Yes it was a death sentence at the time. YET not even one photo exists of Magic looking anything less than healthy. Why is that?

Magic never had HIV. Can you say PsyOp.

How would you or anyone else know about another person's HIV status? It is not the sort of thing that one boasts about.

Unless you are involved in a gay or bi lifestyle or have partners engaged in those lifestyles, the risk of contracting HIV as a straight heterosexual are low. They knew all of this in the 80’s but instead of calling it what it was they used scare tactics and created panic by claiming everyone was at risk.
