Yesterday i read the papers and was inspired by the story of Ted Williams. He is a hobo! He got into drugs when he was young, alcohol, marijuana and cocaine! He lost his family, including his wife and kids who tried to help him and most of all he lost his job and his house too! He was living in a tent and for year he tried to change and repent for his sins. Ted Williams has a God-given talent and that is his voice. Yes, he used to be radio announcer with an impressive voice. He was lucky to be given a chance in life and now he made a commercial for kraft macaroni and cheese, and he was offered a job by the Cavaliers. The Cavaliers said that Williams deserve a second chance in life. He is the living proof that yes, man can change for the better!

Ted Williams is a miracle and an inspiration to us all. It just goes to show you how much life can change. We should never let ourselves ever give up hope. Life can turn around and show us the beauty that was hidden.

It is really a touching real life story of a man going out of control by the fame and money he got through god given gift of voice. He appears really repenting for his misdeeds and trying for second coming in the life. He should be given every opportunity by his family members, forgive him and get him into their fold. God seems to have forgiven him and man should follow.

Hi toni, I just wished I could sue my newspaper publishers for publishing this one...in the wrong way as usual. Going by them - Ted Williams was all that, yes, they mention that. What they mention is that he was picked up by some of the locals who found his voice good and now he is a rich guy attending interviews on TV. Story ends. That gives a completely wrong impression and if I had not read this here, maybe, I would never have known this - I wish him all the best.
