Now head below the break for the answers!
The subtracted letters, in the order of the clue numbers, spell out MAGIC JOHNSON'S JERSEY NUMBER, and the answer to that is THIRTY-TWO (I also accepted answers of THIRTY-THREE, after that possibility was pointed out in the solvers' comments below)
Patron Grant Fikes noted that the FINAL ANSWER was "THIRTY-TWO or THIRTY-THREE, according to Wikipedia (you're probably looking for the former, but the latter was Magic Johnson's number with the Michigan State Spartans)". After I said that I wasn't aware that Magic ever played for MSU, Grant then replied "So I'm guessing it's a coincidence that the two answers I found add up to the magic constant of 65 in the puzzle itself? :P"
Solver Eric Maddy also sent me the two answers of 32 and 33, "which, of course, add up to 65. So I know that's definitely right ;-)"
