Anyone check out "The Announcement"?

ESPN's latest continuation of the 30 for 30 series focuses on Magic Johnson's announcement to retire from the NBA in light of his contracting HIV.

I was a bit too young to fully appreciate the story when it hit, plus information wasn't as easily available online, etc as it is today, so I found it very interesting to watch.

Johnson was a role model of mine when he played, moreso with how he handled himself with the virus.

You guys should check it out, it also features a small segment on when he travelled to NY to work out with a pre-arsehole Pat Riley.
