James R. Jordan Sr.

[DeadlyDynasty]

What, iyo, was the real reason behind his death? It still seems shrouded in mystery, and the media seemed to turn a blind eye and not ask too many questions--much like there wasn't much public muttering about how Magic got infected.

The truth still sits in jail (would be great interviews btw), and according to Wiki they're investigating certain aspects of the case again.

I've said this before on here but in high school, we had this black substitute teacher who was from Chicago. he was only in his early 30s, and he used to say he knew Jordan or people in his entourage. He was saying back then that the word on the street was MJ's dad was killed over MJ's gambling debts. He was telling us this shit way before the internet taking off. So I always thought it seemed fairly legit, and once i started browsing sports forums, I've seen a lot of others with that same theory.

The media definitely should have investigated it. It goes to show that the mainstream media wants the gravy train to keep on rolling.

There is a guy named Michael Fumento who did articles on Magic's HIV, and of course that put him on the media's blacklist for showing how Magic had a reputation that was apparently succeeded by his son.

Just looked him up...this looks like a good read (book apparently came out a year prior to Magic's announcement):

Also, to piggyback your point further (the gambling angle), one of the assailants said their original intention was just to tie him up/possibly kidnap him.

:lolhaven't read it yet, but I assume the title is not as matter-of-fact as it sounds. In this country at least though, it was homosexuals who had it first and they are (either directly or indirectly) responsible for all AIDS-related deaths in North America

I find it had to believe those two complete crackhead idiots would be under some kind of omertà type honor code of silence and are refusing to speak out but hey people believe 9/11 was an inside job and that Aliens leave messages so what are you gonna do

i've never read it either, I want to check it out. I heard about the author and his theories and then read some of his Magic articles. AIDS has to be the most politicized disease in the world. Funny how gays never apologize for giving infected blood to the hospitals and ruining people like Arthur Ashe or Ryan White.

as for your point above on what the assailants said, that is very interesting. it definitely sounds like a hit. as a teen I simply thought MJ's dad was in the wrong place at the wrong time, but that substitute teacher made sense. he could have been full of shit, but he seemed legit and my point was that there were definitely theories coming out of Chicago way before the internet, it's just the media is fucking useless for the most part.

I don't know what is a bigger issue, MJ was definitely bigger than Magic, but if you truly went into Magic's sexual history, you would have the gay mafia coming after you.

MJ as an Alpha Male did what he had to do

Jordan Sr was interfering with his dream of becoming a baseball player.


Magic fucked a lot of assholes because it provided a relief from the L.A media pressure


Bird ignored his daughter for years to focus on his player and coach/GM career

This is what Alpha Males do
