30 for 30 TIm Richmond

1. I learned that back in the 80's, AIDS was considered a "gay" disease. However, when other people contracted it they would be shy to reveal their condition.

2. Tim did not tell everyone about his illness because he did not want to be belittled by the fact that he had contracted a deadly sexual disease. He was most likely afraid of the media's portrayal of him if they found out he had the disease. I think he should have gone public with his condition so that his fans and friends could have known why he was not performing to his full potential.
