Somebody has to hire this guy!

Hard to believe that voice is coming from this guy. It's almost like he's lip syncing every time he opens his mouth.

I imagine a tall 40ish year old man with a preppy haircut and a vest talking when I hear his voice.

 

Cleveland Cavaliers offered him a fulltime job and a house!

 

Great, I don't know why but I love these types of stories of second chances, as does most everybody else.

Really? Link?

 

It was on the air. Some lady from the Cavs organization got on and pitched him the offer. The dudes been getting offers left and right, its really amazing!

 

CBS Evening News will be doing a feature on him tonight or tomorrow that will show everything he's been offered.

Its amazing how this mans life has been turned around so easily over night. If only this happened everyone day....just once a day...it would make a difference.

 

Keep us posted on the CBS story. I can't listen to the guy on the radio while I am at work but this is compelling to me. Is he getting any backlash from those who think he might revert back to alcohol and drugs?

 

Ah, I see. Well that's great. If you're listening, keep us posted on anything else big that happens.

 

I wouldn't worry about missing this story. He will be all over the media all over the world this time tomorrow.

 

Yeah, seems like it. Finally made Yahoo's front page. http://new.music.yahoo.com/blogs/amplifier/51933/golden-voiced-homeless-man-captivates-internet/

 

Here he is on the CBS Early Show all spiffy. :grin:

Amazing. This has made my day.

 

cnbc's darren rovell said the nfl is considering him for the nfl films voice overs too

 

The dichotomy of the internet...it can ruin your life or save it.

 

Hopefully they set this guy up with good management.

 

amazing, heartwarming story

 

This is a wonderful feel good story.. There are people out there who actually help change lives and the only way we can hear about it now a days is through the internet.

 

It saved this guys life and I'm sure he's never had a subscription to the service.

 

LOL! What a bum. :grin:

 

I wish I can get a sweet gig and internet fame with my squeaky nerd voice.

Now let's hope dude stays clean.

 

Haha so inspiring! That's amazing and I hope he makes the best of this opportunity.
