Golden-Voiced Homeless Man Captivates Internet

A homeless man in the name of Ted Williams was discovered by the Columbus Dispatch along the Ohio's I-71, gifted with an amazing voice fit to be a radio announcer or something similar. After his video went viral, it exploded to a stunning three million hits. Within 24 hours of its release, bunch of job offers including from NFL and MTV are knocking on his doors and competing with other countless companies . On top of that, a full time-job and a house from Cleveland Cavaliers looks very promising . How cool is that? 

It was revealed that he once had a good life as a radio announcer but due to alcohol and drug abuse, everything was destroyed. The good thing about it is that he has been clean for two years and a half. He was also given a chance to meet his 90 year old mother for the first time in years, quoting ""One of my biggest prayers that I sent out was that she would live long enough to see me rebound," Williams said. "There's so many words. I've already been compared to Susan Boyle... I'm just so happy.".  

I believe that his experience is a true testament that "GOD will make a way when there seems to be no way".  Congratulations Mr. Williams
