The 80's were the Golden Years

[GonzoStyle]

I explained my theory on Magic a few years ago. He is a slick moolie, he never had the HIV. He did it all as an ingenius buisness plan. He knew his best years as a basketball player were behind him, plus he had won a bunch of rings and had little left to prove. He knew he could make 10 times as much money without the grueling schedule of an NBA season and all that training, etc.

So what better way to get out of the sport without any questions, yet at the same time propel yourself in the minds of people, as a hero and tug on their sympathy? I HAVE HIV!!! CRY FOR ME!!!

So now he's this big hero, he also has this awesome trump card. Just imagine when he started all these business deals, who is gonna turn down Magic? maybe a few... but who will turn down Magic with AIDS? NO ONE!!

Also a lot of these real estate guys probably figured, the nigs not gonna be able to run a business and if anything he will fix up a property for us and he will be dead in a couple years, then we buy back the property for peanuts!!! BUT HE NEVER DIES!!!

Now he has these movie theaters, music labels, entertainment ventures, sports ownership, and god knows what else he has going on.

And he can always fall back on the excuse of: "well he is an athlete in great shape, he has the money for medical treatement, so he has survived with the HIV".... but he never even had it!!!

It is the shrewdest move in business history, of machiavellian proportions.... fuckin brilliant!
