Former Homeless Man Ted Williams could be new voice of NFL Films

Homeless Ted Williams, Owner of 'Golden Voice,' Offered Job by NFL Films, Cleveland Cavaliers - NESN Newswire - NESN.com

Just amazing. And he has an amazing voice. Ted is a recovered drug/alcohol addict. God Bless America that someone will give him a second chance....

Hey! Sam's a color guy, Ted will be a PA guy - youre just taking a shot at poor Sam for no reason. I think i might be the only one on this site that likes Sam.

Also I heard the last minute or 2 of Sunday's game on the ol’ FM and Larry explicitly said that him Sam and Sonny will be back next year. Obviously another year on Sam and Sonny is going to add to their "color" commentating so im pretty excited.

This guy does have a sweet voice, glad hes back on his feet. Doesn’t he kind of look like a cross between Obama and Andrew Jackson?

Sam seems drunk, senile, or both. I'm not sure that he will even know that it is next year.

Well, in that case he could be right, there may not be a next year (for the NFL, at least)...

More proof that anyone can make it in this country. And barring mental or physical disaster, if you haven't made it, it's your own damn fault.

Yes... It's easy for anyone that tries to make it in this country. Oh wait, this guy sat on the street, some guy recorded his voice and it became viral, and he got a job.

Good story, but lets not act like this guy is a success story. He got lucky. Best of luck to him, but it's not like he pulled himself up by his bootstraps.

I think you missed his point that the guy is homeless, despite having such a wonderful talent, due to his own life choices.

But that is all history...now he seems to have his head on straight and has a chance to get the rest of his life straight. Good for him. These voice guys never look like what they sound like.
