Quark contributions to the proton spin as deduced from polarized DIS of leptons off a nucleon target, and the octet baryon magnetic moments, can be used to deduce the antiquark polarizations $\Delta_{\overline{q}}$ inside the proton. In this way, the 1992 analysis by Karl is shown to imply $\Delta_{\overline{q}}\simeq 0.$ Such a spin structure fits nicely into the chiral quark interpretation of the proton spin and flavor puzzles.
