Magic Johnson has more class in his little finger.

Dear Donald Sterling,

Please stop talking. You are just making it worse. Every time you open your mouth, you confirm what a repugnant, racist, entitled, piece of shit you are.

Thank you,

Sane people everywhere.

Whats sad is all the bigots come out to defend Steerling by claiming black athletes don't give back to the community, even though MLB, NBA, NFL all have community outreach programs that let players donate time or money to kids in these communities.

Los Angeles is one of the most culturally diverse places on the planet. If there is one person that pretty much all ethnic groups in LA respect and like, it is probably Magic Johnson. Dissing Magic Johnson is never a good PR move...

@2: He can keep talking, the news stations need to stop giving him a voice, as they do with every racist/sexist/hateful fuck in the world.

Uh... but didn't Magic Johnson sleep with hundreds of women, including many when he already knew he had HIV?

He needs to keep talking. The NBA is an entertainment business that relies on public opinion in constructing its value. By talking he diminishes the popularity of the Clippers franchise, and by extension the NBA, which gives the NBA owners just cause to remove him as a franchise owner.

He just finished making the case for the NBA.

@6, This was back in 80s where most people assumed HIV was a gay only disease. So he might have contracted HIV through straight sex, but never knew he had it and had no reason to suspect he had it as the general public assumed only gay people got it. He only found out when he got a blood test prior to getting married in 1991.

@10: And then he devoted a lot of his time and money to publicizing the danger of the disease and correcting the misconception that it could only be contracted through The Gay.

@6: What evidence do you have that he knew? Where is that established? Are you prone to pulling baseless accusations out of your ass, or is this a new thing?

Besides his foundation, Magic Johnson owns a number of businesses that provide services and jobs in many previously under served African-American communities.
