: MediaTakeOut.com just got a hold of some EXTREMELY SHOCKING information. According to a new book written by Magic Johnson and Larry Bird entitled When the Game Was Ours, Magic drops a BOMB!!
According to him his VERY CLOSE FRIEND Isiah Thomas told people that Magic got HIV from having sex with DUDES. Here's how Sports Illustrated is reporting it:
The book offers revelations that have stunned Thomas. Magic addresses years of rumors by finally accusing Thomas of questioning his sexuality after Johnson was diagnosed with HIV in 1991 . . . The book’s main source for this allegation is Magic's longtime agent, Lon Rosen, who says Thomas told him in 1991, "I keep hearing Magic is gay.''Wow . . ."C'mon, Isiah, you know Earvin better than anyone,'' Rosen replies.
"I know,'' Thomas answers, "but I don't know what he's doing when he's out there in L.A.''

I thought that was said about him anyway after he announced he had tha BLICK...then later they reported that he was now AIDS free...why bring this back up? I mean, obviously Magic and his wife Cookie are still together and they have moved on so why would Isiah even try to call him out?..I heard he was tha booty bandit anyway...NEXT
I BELIEVE this! NEARLY ALL of the NBA, NFL, NBL players are perverted Down low egotistical, animalistic, money-grubbing, capitalistic, ignorant, Jew owned sexual deviants. IMO. PLEASE young black boys STAY away from sports, music industry, and hollyweird. Young impressionable cats are bound to get turned out. SMH.
B_Real07 Flag post 50% percent of them 6'9'' azz nuccas is gay just like rappers ************* @B_Real07- Co-sign. Imagine a 7 foot man letting another man break his manhood by entering his booty hole?! The scene is horrendous. Not trying to sound homophobic, because I'm not, but the DL thing-especially when the men appear masculine, seems a bit perverted to me. Not all of them are DL, but I'm sure the FAMOUS ones HAVE at one point or another given up the booty for fame and riches. It seems that is how it goes in sports, music industry and hollyweird.
Off Topic: RHOA Was great. I want to know will Kandi take care of AJ's kids and will she reunite Xscape. Nene found her father and why is her husband so against her seeing him. It seems like Greg already knows the guy and is trying to hide some dark family secrets. How will Kim make a living after being dumped by Big Poppa. Lisa wants another baby but can Ed afford it. Will he ever find a job? Did Sheree bed Otis Nixon because she was seen taking a pic w/him in the last scenes? And exactly when will Kandi administer an azz whooping to Nene cuz she has it coming.
you never know!
i always wondered how he got hiv? sleeping wa hookers? drug usage? sleeping w/ men? ew
note: black men why do soo many of yall get on that dl ish? if you gay your gay! dont be ashamed! didnt they say the reason why black women contracted aids soo much in america was from black men sleeping w/ other men? im scared to date brothas smh
Clearly the issue is not whether he got it from a man or a woman, the issue is that he got it and now he gotta live w/it. Ignant bastar*s! I can't stand people...if u aint phucking da dude y da phuck would u care if he phucking a man or not!! If u aint my nikkah please feel free to phuck whomeva u want 2!
emmettmays85 Flag post @ GuessJeans how da [EXPLETIVE] would u know if they are 100% straight or not? truth your husband might be gay. i truly think u a mutt who has vendetta against black men *************** @emmettmay85- No sweetie. I love black men. I came from black so why would I hate it. I simply hate atheltes WAYS (not to say I'm sinless) but alot of these black players live lives of debauchery which includes cheating on spouses, doing drugs, and sexing men in the dookie-shoot. What you call that? Sainthood? Please. Furthermore I didn't say ALL black men, I am only refering to
That's sad that after all his accomplishments,he still knows that every now and then the topic of his health rears it's ugly head.But He's well, he has a fmily and he is a successful business man...900 Mil...that's quite a feat for being JUST a Basketball Player from Detroit.There are MANY noted players that have come and gone...not a thin dime to their names.I'm sure they have tid bits of gossip and health problems including the latter, but who cares...right? Ask magic for a Loan Isiah, I hear he owns a BANK!..HA!
CAN YOU PEOPLE NOT READ. The second sentence says "new book written by Magic Johnson and Larry Bird entitled When the Game Was Ours, Magic drops a BOMB!!" That means that Isaih did not bring this up, Magic did. It says "MAGIC drops a BOMB".
Then the forth sentence says "The book offers revelations that have stunned Thomas." Ok, that means that this revelation was a shock to him which of course means he will or have denied saying these things. I'm not saying he never said those things or even thought it but back then, the disease was considered a "gay man's disease.
To all yall on here talking about a secret cure,it's called atripla,most kats who take this one pill a day can go from aids status to undectable in a yr.....so they'll never get sick or have there hiv turn into aids as long as they take this medication....BUT,BUT,BUT they can still pass hiv to others if they have unprotected sex......black folks u have computers,do your dayum research
A-sez Everyone in LA knew these clowns were bi and had big freak parties. NEXT!!
Yes this is common knowledge here on the west coast coming up in the 80's you would know this, eveytime Magic was interviewed after a game/playoff/championship, his favorite phrase was we gone paaarty thats all he ever talked about, and he wasnt talking about your average run of the mill party either
on a side note it is very hard for a woman to transmit the virus to a man unless shes bleeding/cut not saying it's impossible, but much easier for male 2 female/male transmission than the opposite
MEDIATAKEOUT.COM WE NEED ALICIA ON THE FRONT PAGE FOR FRUNTIN LIKE SHE WROTE HER DAMN ALBUM "AS I AM" LETS ASK HOME GIRL WHERE THE LYRICS ORIGINATED FROM WASN'T FROM A BUDDY/SONGWRITER/ARTIST...NAH THE LYRICS WERE STOLEN FROM A TEENAGER'S LYRIC BOOK SO BECAUSE SHE'S "ALICIA KEYS" SHE DO NO WRONG? HOME GIRL HIDING BEHIND A MASK WHAT MAKES YOU THINK IF SHE CAN INVADE A MARRIAGE THAT SHE CAN'T CLAIM LYRICS THAT WERE'NT GIVEN TO HER LETS GO MEDIATAKEOUT ( THE TIME IS NOW ) CALL IT WHAT YOU LIKE ...I HAVE PROOF FOR DAYS
IT'S REALLY AN UNFORTUNATE SITUATION BUT WRONG IS WRONG SWEETHEARTS BUT HOW YOU GOING TO PUT A PRICE ON SOMEONE'S TESTIMONY AND LIFE EXPERIENCE A TEENAGER @ THAT!!!!!!!!!! SHE'S AN ADULT NOW BUT IT'S A SAD THING MEDIATAKEOUT I NEED THIS ON THE FRONT PAGE FOLLOW ME ON TWITTER FOR MY INFORMATION AND EVIDENCE
my husband and I were discussing this this week . Opera had a show where 5 women were infected by 1 dude. The doctor says it is rare that a woman can give men aids . I researched this and yes it is very rare that a woman can give a man aids .There are circumstance but very rae . So who was magic [EXPLETIVE]!ng?
@sexymom on a side note it is very hard for a woman to transmit the virus to a man unless shes bleeding/cut not saying it's impossible, but much easier for male 2 female/male transmission than the opposite **** ^^^^glad u pointed that out.
I lived in LA in the late 80's throughout the 90s and I was over a male friends house - he had a buddy over that was telling him that Johnny Gil's GF came over to his house (she was friends with HIS girl)- sobbing because she walked in on JG giving head to Sugar Ray Leonard...i was like 'nah nah don't believe that'....
...not a day later, I was watching Arsenio Hall and he said 'Ive got 2 special guests in the audience tonight. Give it up to SRL and JG.!'
What are the chances? They didnt even seem like likely associates. I almost fell out of my chair. And JG sat there with that pursed lip horny grin that gay guys have-like they just sucked a good dick. ahahahahaha.
An undetectable viral load is not a cure and there are terrible side effects with antiretroviral treatments. Having one pill a day minimizes the effect on the liver but increases cholesterol levels we are seeing an increase in individuals who were on the cocktail in the late nineties having extremely serious heart problems. Protect yourselves there is no cure and likely will never be.
Isiah was just a hater cuz back in the day he couldn't find a way to beat us or Jordan, touching a doorbell or getting married was the only way he was gonna get a ring on his finger, he wasen't part of the championships but atleast he got to witness(Drake voice)! Let's go Lakers!!!
Catch me on Twitter-jodi0862
@A_sez, @TRIPLESIXCHARTER, yes their lil downlow parties included Arsenio, Eddie, Johnny G, Sugar Ray, they just had a gay old time, heard Magic was into trannies, and they tried to initiate Mike Tyson, but he wasnt with it, A-sez heard that about Johnny G wasnt that his babies mother that busted him? And yes Johnny lives in Eddies guesthouse
@jaming876- Please. You always got something negative to say about black women. There are bi-sexual and lesbian black women BUT the numbers PALE in comparison to black men DL-homosexuals. Give it a rest sweetie. Black men lost their king crown eons ago. Once the powerful, opulent, MASCULINE, intelligent, rich kings of 5,000-10,000 B.C Africa/North Africa continent, NOW the confused, lost, sexual deviant, non-religious, objectify women, booty-bandit, DL, homo thug loving, non-book reading, locked up, non marital 5 baby mama having, LOST negroes of TODAY. Ya'll have GOT to do better. ALL of ya'
jaming You LOVE opportunities to diss BW. For the record, I also believe BW are over hyping the gay/bi thing too, but facts are facts. If it walk like a duck, quack like a duck, got webbed feet like a duck, ITS A DUCK! I lived in LA at the time and EVERYBODY talked about it. There were no camera phones and secret electronic devices like there are now, so that has a lot to do with why there are no pics. If you recall, Eddie was caught with a tranny years ago. These guys were all friends....birds of a feather... They are grown, they can do what they want, I'm just sayin......
Matter of fact I got four black female friends who have found love quite satisfying elsewhere. One of my girls is married to an Algerian. Another to a white/German man; the third to a Ghanian man; and the fouth to a man that is Nigerian/Senegalese. My own sister is dating a Ghanian man after 3 unsuccessful years of marriage to a black american man. Sistas got options trust that. lol
@jaming876- Two things you forgot to mention. This SOCIETY that we live in is governed by WHITE MEN who suggested that homosexuality between women was "in style". Secondly, because WHITE MEN says its cute, you got millions of white women who have experimented with other females. Shoot. Frances made a billion dollar empire off of exploiting WHITE women getting down with other WHITE women. How did the sistas get involved in this?
@jaming, u cant seriously believe that there are more lesbian & bi women than men! Usually men that are bi, prefer men. Woman will dabble with other chicks, but prefer men. Go to ATL u will change your mind. D.C. also has a large gay community, & NY. Just like guessjeans stated, the entertainment & sports...WHOLE rack of dudes. Darlin, WAY more men are bi & gay.
@ GuessJeans im [EXPLETIVE] sick of yo white man worshipping ass constantly talking [EXPLETIVE] about black men . u say u love us bitch u dont love us if u did u would'nt stereotype us in such a negative manner. truth be told like i said before black women staying loyal is really because of lack of options , some of the most cruel jokes about black i heard came from non black men . and u bitches constantly praising these [EXPLETIVE] . and for black men being non religious [EXPLETIVE] a religion especially christianity.
@emmettmays85- Please RE-READ everything I wrote. Where in the world did I state "ALL BLACK MEN"??? Where did I state "white men are perfect"? I was simply refering to ball players. Learn to comprehend what you read boo boo. And OF cOURSE non-black men would TALK SH.IT about BLACK WOMEN! THEY LEARNED IT FROM YOU BLACK MEN since some of you degrade and exploit black women so hard, the others can't help but laught at that mess and do the same. SMH.
@emmettmays85- If most black men were like the men in the NOI best believe non-black men wouldn't say shyt about black women. WHY? Because the NOI MEN demand a level of RESPECT. Those men are REAL men. Today alot of you are just a bunch of money loving, women objectifying capitalist who doing everything contrary to your innate selves. Alot of you on here talk about the white man all damn day but at the same time will SLAY a sista or brother who had something negative to say about 50, Ice-T, JayZ. Some of you stay talking about the white man, but have cursed out black women for speaking agains
@ GuessJeans in your response to jaming876 no u didnt say all black men but u said the black men of today so basically u saying the average black men is either gay, on the DL , locked up or have 10 babymommas. and then try to blame non black men talkin [EXPLETIVE] about ya'll on black men u always try to find a way to place blame on black men .do u care about me?
@ GuessJeans baby thats not true i dont stereotype black ya'll i really do . i admit i called black women bitches and whores hell i even called my grandma and mother bitches and hoes to they faces. but thats how refer to women all races not every woman though. i mean hate it when women of other races stereotype us [EXPLETIVE] but it stings when i hear those stereotypes coming from u a black woman it hurts
@Asez.nope I don't jump at the chance to diss black women, I just tend to take on people who say stupid shyt 24/7, which on this site, tend to be overwhelmingly black women. In the 80's camcorders, cameras and tape recorders existed.. so if these MILLIONAIRES were living a double life don't you think someone who have seized the oppurtunity to exploit them using the "downlow" lifestyle as blackmail.. they didn't because they had no proof of it, because it didn't go down... show me proof of it *** ooooh 'shut up' he says to me. This must be love.
*sniff* smells like denial...
@jaming876- Two things you forgot to mention. This SOCIETY that we live in is governed by WHITE MEN who suggested that homosexuality between women was "in style". Secondly, because WHITE MEN says its cute, you got millions of white women who have experimented with other females. Shoot.

Did your WHITE husband propose a THREESOME?
Like, WTF?
You are a complete IDIOT
I didn't know that homosexuality(which has existed FOREVER) was race specific
and let me beat you to the punch
i know u will probably write 'the only thing you smell is your hairy armpits..or nappy weave dandruff..or perhaps its the smell of my fat crevices.. yeah okay arent u glad i saved you the time it would have taken to type all that.
yaaawn
look, the only reason i am even discussing this is because its the story...they are grown men and do what grown men do. Human sexuality doesnt offend me the way it does all you sanctimonious frauds.
Yeah, I guess Eddie was just giving that tranny a ride. And I guess JG's GF didnt actually SEE what she THOUGHT she saw...
cont- And ALL of ya'll men aren't lost but ALOT of you are. Step your game up OR you will begin to see throves of black women going after African, non-black, (non) African American males. Truth hurts... I digress.
Speak for yourself
If you like pink d*cks more power to you
And you can slice and dice it anyway you want but Algerian, Nigerian/Senagalese and Ghanian men are still ultimately black, so much for opting out
Here's a novel idea, why don't you try judging each person based on who they are as an individual?
Wow, a brother must have really dogged you out
Hiv doesn't mean gay.. I think magic being a basketball GOD during the 80's contracted the disease from many of the throngs of groupies he was phucking everynight. If you idiots theorize that eddie, arsenio, jg, srl and other were in some gay clique then howcome magic was the only one who got caught aids??? And if magic was gay howcome nobody has stepped forward to confirm it??
This is the reason black women are leading the AIDS epidemic...naivete..Check the CDC, it's rare that a woman transmits AIDS to men, its a FACT. It's possible, but usually unlikely.
I believe that magic got the bug from being gay and sleeping around with different men. Why you think him and cookie still married? She knows his secret and has him wrapped around her pinky for the rest of her life. I bet you he aint never allowed to tell her or the kids no when they ask for something and I bet she lives a completely different lifestyle away from the cameras. She probably got her "real" boo staying at they crib. And magic stay in a whole notha part of the hose.I must admit that is a good story they concocted for the world about how he got AIDS.
cont...
I can't believe that you need PICS to believe a fella is gay. And just b/c they haven't came forward and confirmed doesn't mean that they are negative. WTF? Are you really that gullible? Stop looking at the race issue. No one is downing them or saying that all black men are gay. SOME of them are and secretly sleep with men. This occurs in ALL races but yet BLACK women are leading the nation in statistics. For being NAIVE. You can ignore the facts, but it is what it is.
Do you REALLY believe that Eddie was being a good samaritan and giving that tranny a ride home @ 3am? SMH
Let me get this straight! Magic wrote about it in his book, but he never confronted his good friend about the allegations he was making? What he just decided to put it in the book to let Isiah know, that he knows, that after all these years he just wanted him to know, yeah buddy! And by the way I had heard you was talking about me behind my back. DOES THAT MAKE ANY SENSE? Whatever the case I'm sure nobody is shocked by anything that goes on with these celebrities having to do with sex. I think I was more shocked that Cookie stayed with his ass after that bomb dropped.
@jaming so you call other posters idiots because they named the dl click but wanna know why Magic is the only one that got the virus? Did it ever occur to you that maybe the others were careful and used condoms? maybe they didnt fukk each other but hired or invited others to come fukk them or vice versa? and for the cherry on the pie, do we know their hiv status? no we dont, Magic was the only one to announce his and that was because the sh!t was about to hit the fan stemming from the physical that revealed his HIV status, for all we know they could all be infected, do you think that Magic is the only celeb that has HIV? You are getting so upset about black men being called out for being dl but seriously there is a reason that black women are the highest rates of those infected with AIDS and black women aint givin it to themselves. Like I said in an earlier post it is dayum near impossible for a woman to transmit the virus to a man, the percentage is less than 1% ...one percent, so the probability that he got it from a woman is almost impossible (not impossible) , and there have been rumors about him and risky sexual behaviours long before his HIV status was announced, where theres smoke theres fire right??
[link to external website removed] Male-to-female transmission was approximately eight-times more efficient than female-to-male transmission and male-to-female per contact infectivity was estimated to be 0.0009 (95% C 0.0005-0.001).
[link to external website removed] Receptive anal sex ("bottoming") remains the most risky activity, due to the likelihood of direct semen-blood contact. But penetrative anal sex ("topping") with someone can result in HIV transmission, too. Vaginal intercourse puts both partners at risk, but HIV is transmitted from men to women much more easily than from women to men.
why aren't lesbians spreading the virus like wildfire??? [link to external website removed] To date, there are no confirmed cases of female-to-female sexual transmission of HIV in the United States database (K. McDavid, CDC, oral communication, March 2005). However, case reports of female-to-female transmission of HIV and the well-documented risk of female-to-male transmission [1] indicate that vaginal secretions and menstrual blood are potentially infectious and that mucous membrane (for example, oral, vaginal) exposure to these secretions has the potential to lead to HIV infection.
I Seriously think some of the people on this site hate being black. For real. People will take any story about a black INDIVIDUAL and use it as a means to label or disrespect Black people AS A WHOLE, or a whole GROUP of black people. That's stupid and what races do. When a white person acts up, its on the person, but when a black person does something its somehow a reflection of ALL of us. And stupid n*ggers have picked up on that and do it to themselves. Idiots. This is about Isaiah and Magic, not some indictment about the whole of black men/women/people. GIve it a rest!
The number of Black men that are gay is reaching alarming rates. What's even more sad, they use us women as a cover up. Cookie should have left a long time ago but she stayed around cause the price is right. For all we know he probably infected her too. I think the dude I'm with has slept with men in the past however he refuses to admit it. Instead he plays like he's homophobic, but that's a cover up. I'm saying, if a man what's to play for the other team, GO! Just leave me alone and keep your deadly disease to yourself.
@sexymom
Some people are unwilling to see what is right before their eyes
Their DL orgies are legendary on the west coast Add Tevin Campbell to the clique
I don't understand the stigma attached to AIDS/hiv OR homosexuality. Its 2009, why be ashamed, it could happen to anyone.
Magic is a SISSY. Deal with it people.
Why is it so shocking that black men are bisexual? Newsflash, black women too. It didn't happen overnight and blacks are not following whites. Blacks have been gay/bi just as long as other races. We just don't talk about it. Hence the DL.
We need to address this, build a bridge and get over it.
Who you choose to sleep with is not a reflection of what type of person you are. I've had more straight people wrong me than gays...
I'm just sayin'
@ MaintainTheSexy maybe if some of these sista wore a condom or asked your to get tested to get tested u would have this problem i think its stupid stay with a guy who u think is on the DL i bet yo dumbass probably havin unprotected sex too. and AIDS is not a gay disease u bitches are so [EXPLETIVE] naive u can catch form havin unprotected sex damn u bitches get on my nerves
This is not the first time I heard this story. There was a documentary that aired years ago and I don't remember the guys name they were interviewing but he said that, Magic did'nt contract HIV from all the different women he slept with but it was all the different men that he had slept with. He went on to say that Magic, Eddie M., Mike Tyson, Arsenio Hall and Johnny Gill partied together often and they would all sleep with different men.
WHY IS THIS EVEN NEWS I MEAN REAL TALK DO YOU THINK HE IS THE ONLY ONE IT IS SO MANY BASKETBALL, FOOTBALL,BASEBALL, SOCCER,TENNIS, ANY SPORT YOU CAN THINK OF ALL OF THEM THERE ARE ALOT OF MEN BLACK AND WHITE ALL MEN WHO HAVE GAY SEX BUT SWEAR THEY ARE STRAIGHT ALL THESES FREAKS ARE LIVING ON THE DOWN-LOW AND THEY CREEP BACK HOME TO THERE WIVES/GIRL-FRIENDS AND INFECT THERE LOVE ONES MEN ARE SO DISCUSTING, I JUST WISH THEY CAN BE REAL AND HONEST AND GIVE OTHERS A CHANCE TO DECIDED IF THEY WANNA CONTINUE TO DEAL WITH THEM LIKE THAT!
Isiah, if Magic suppose to be your friend, how could you put stuff like this out to ruin his credibility??? If he did it get from a gay man, I would assume Magic would've told us if not what makes that our business and gives you any right to expose that for $$$. I guess the woman who's suing you is cleaning your pockets dry. Now you have made Magic into a target for possible questions on this. Shameful, Isiah.
Don't know if there's any truth to it, but it's not far-fetched either. These hetero black men get these big contracts playing ball making millions of dollars. They reach celebrity status and are constantly in the limelight and have beautiful woman throwing themselves @ them day in, day out. Sex w/ one women starts to get boring, then comes the 3somes, then come the orgies...sooner than later a lot of them end up experimenting w/ homosexuality....not just the ball players either.
@ reignbow, what "credibility"? He admitted that he contracted hiv b/c he was having unprotected sex with numerous women. He's married, that's adultery and betrayal, so he killed his own credibility years and years ago. It's in the past now and people have come to respect Magic for the wonderful entrpreneur and humanitarian he is, regardless.
