Magic Johnson is Faking AIDS

Published by basketballpeon at 12:07 pm under Uncategorized Edit This

Expert analysis from talk radio hosts Chris Baker and Langdon Perry of KTLK in Minneapolis confirms that Magic Johnson is indeed faking AIDS.  We assume he faked his illness to finally get out of his low paying NBA job, and coast through retirement on medical disability.  We can also assume that it was a cry for attention and affection from the American public and his fellow players (as we can remember, reception of his illness was very warm indeed).  Wait a second, that doesn’t make any sense.

So two radio hosts made a regretable comment the other day about Magic Johnsons and his faking of the AIDS, but in their defense, it was in the context of a health care debate, after a caller stated that health care is not a basic right of the American people.  Perry then asked about illness that people can live with for extended periods of time granted some basic medication is available, so naturally the next logical statement to make is to assert that Magic Johnson is faking AIDS.

To my knowledge, the pair have not retracted their statements, but the radio station has done some PR work and started airing AIDS awareness propaganda… I mean Aids Awareness Public Service Announcements.
