The Latest Celebity Not Visiting Reno: Magic Johnson
Oh Magic. I know Las Vegas is closer to L.A. than Reno, but Reno is actually much easier to get to thanks to our manageable airport. So why not campaign for Hillary Clinton here? No offense American Ferrara, but you’re no Magic Johnson. I was on a plane once with James Worthy and he’s cool too, but he no Magic Johnson either. Perhaps the only person cooler than you is the ultimate Laker, Kareem Abdul-Jabaar, who, if he played basketball today, would probably be called an islamofascist by Mike Huckabee and Rudy Giuliani.
The firefighters in Carson City got to meet Bill Clinton yesterday but he’s no Magic either. I don’t even watch the NBA much anymore, and I can’t help but think that that has everything to do with your retirement and the missing sharp elbows of the dependably whiny Bill Lambier and the rest of those damn dirty Detroit Pistons.
Reno needs you more than Las Vegas. In fact, you should invest here and help Reno diversify if you know what I mean. Reno needs some Magic. Plus, Myrna and Magic together? Cookie, you wouldn’t mind, would you?

That’s so Showtime. It caught me off guard like a no-look pass driving the lane. If only Obama or Romney had this degree of celeb coolness…hmmmmmm.
Now if only Magic would open a damn Fatburger here!
Magic should consider running for office. He would win.
