Magic Johnson announces his retirement from Basketball
Loading...
Uploaded by mastershakeftw on Nov 8, 2006
It seems just like yesterday that I remember watching this clip. Yet, it has been 15 years since Earvin "Magic" Johnson shocked the world by announcing he was retiring from the game after learning that he had contracted the HIV virus.
Note: He did come out of retirement to join the Lakers in the 1995-96 season, only to lose to the Houston Rockets in the first round of the playoffs.

Everything has a cure! But if they make one.. the companies with their expensive life-saving-pills and just slowing down the virus stuff will go broke .. and U know in this world.. money is everything... :/

@propsilence2005 It's not a cure it's a treatment.

@propsilence2005 Obviously neither did you, or your teachers lied to you, more probably your teachers lied to you, and even better still, they probably didn't realise they were lying to you. It's called "lies to children". Kind of like tell children that tidal patterns are caused by the moons grativational forces. Sort of true, but mostly not.

Since when does any virus have a cure? Virus (=) equals no cure. Only bacterial infections have cures. Lots of people missed Biology in school.
