"The Voice"
 
You been seeing that homeless guy from Cleveland, Ted Williams, with the great voice on TV and online?? Great story huh? I just watched him on the Today show and boy what a story! I hope he does well he seems like a good guy back on the straight path.:uhuh:

JohnR 01-06-2011 08:01 AM

Same here. I hope the guys does well. Ran into lots of rocky shoals, but has since kicked the drugs and bad habbits, and is making a go of it - very cool.

striperman36 01-06-2011 08:01 AM

I hope so. the guy fell a long way

fishbones 01-06-2011 09:20 AM

Awesome story. I saw a video clip of him yesterday and it's hard not to be moved by his story and his attitide about everything. I hope he's hugely successful and the radio work leads to bigger and better things. If he stays clean, he could end up being a pretty good motivational speaker.

Raven 01-06-2011 09:39 AM

nice that he could go see his mom bearing great news

Slingah 01-06-2011 09:54 AM

Here is a link of him on the Today show. He sounds like a very grateful man. Quite the story.

I noticed one overwhelming attribute that works well in his favor: He is very humble and polite. He constantly responds to Katie with "Yes M'am and No M'am" and he never blamed anyone else but himself for his troubles.

I wish him success in his future.

great story,

Is this really news, it's a crap story and pisses me off

I guess if your a drug addict and lose your job because of it you can't pay your bills then lose your house, of course he's clean now he has no money to buy drugs.

this is a joke, there are alot of single moms with kids that are homeless and they don't make the news, does anyone else see something wrong with this?

BigFish 01-06-2011 04:28 PM

The guy was open and up front about his past on the Today show this morning. He answered the questions quite honestly about his drug and alcohol problems and his criminal history which he used to support his addictions.......also claims to be clean and sober for 2 years I think he said?? You don't believe people deserve a second chance??

tattoobob 01-06-2011 04:50 PM

No I do believe he should get a second chance, I just don't care about him and don't think it's news worthy

UserRemoved1 01-06-2011 05:02 PM

He's had 9 chances :rotf2:

UserRemoved1 01-06-2011 05:03 PM

It's kinda funny how it went down for sure. I don't disagree with your view Bob.

Look at Octomom :rotf2:

Scott, they should be introduced. Octomom and Ted Williams. They will be getting invited to the Oscars and Emmys and everything else. You Watch

Raider Ronnie 01-11-2011 06:41 PM

I heard on the radio the other day that Octomom signed a deal to do porn. Probably gonna bang 8 guys at once :uhuh:
As for "The Voice"
#^&#^&#^&#^& him,,, a felon who looks like Obama, enough reason for me to dislike him !

Raven 01-11-2011 08:02 PM

if he's truly sincere

i say, give him the benefit of the doubt

Susan Boyle had a similar meltdown with instantaneous fame

Raider Ronnie 01-11-2011 08:10 PM

Trouble already.

It's about redemption..
 
Without the hope of we are all lost. Without which there is no hope. We must believe that there is recovery from our faults and stumbles. We must believe in hope. When we say "eff him, he effed up" we say the same about ourselves. And more.
