Clarification Please




There is a book coming out, un unauthorized biography of Baskeball Legend adn Genius Jerry West. NBA Hall of Fame player, long time LA Lakers front office Exec, as well as the Memphis Grizzlies. YOu may recognize him most as the logo for the NBA. That icon is him. Well as I said there is a book coming out, titled, Jerry West: The Life and Legend of a Basketball Icon

Here are some excerpts from the book that I want you to consider before I go in:

"That November, as a new season was set to open, Magic Johnson announced to the world that he was HIV positive, a stunning event that brought revelations about the climate of sexual frivolity around the Lakers. Johnson admitted he had been sleeping with 300-500 people a year.

The team’s locker room, and its sauna, had been a place where the star and other players had entertained women, even right after games. Johnson would retire to the sauna after a game, have sex, then put on a robe and return to the locker room for his post-game media interviews. How far had the team gone in condoning such questionable behavior? ‘I cared,’ West said in his interviews for this book. ‘I did things for those guys. It was ridiculous, some of the things I did for those guys. If the public knew they’d be outraged. It was a pretty crazy period for us."


Ok well it all sounds like common flashing lights activity. And shout out to Mediatakeout whom I got this article from, I was reading it and it never really hit me what was going on. They did say 300- 500 people. WTF!!!!! Some time ago Magic Johnson just canme out in a book taking shots at NBA Great and longtime friend Isiah Thomas about his possible extracurricular activities in the area of homosexuality. And the media jumped on it and it pushed his sales, but now we here "people" not women. See the difference, they said he slept with 3000-500 people, theres room for some men in there. We need a clarification, cause we aint know he was getting down like that. And man it was said best, "You can live through anything if Magic made it."(Kanye West) We know his story, so at this point nothing surprises but DAMN.
