Magic has to be the most shocking, first player on a large scale to really retire from something like that that I know of, other than Lou Gehrig. It's a bummer, he was one of the most complete players in NBA history. Kobe accused of rape was shocking too, and I still think of that when I see him so I have trouble respecting him as a person (he looked like he was lying up there, I'm sorry but I don't believe him, don't necessarily believe the girl either but idk what to think), but professional athletes have a track record of being troubled people off the playing field, so it wasn't as big of a surprise.
