Ya this is a good story. What an amazing voice. Good for him. Love how the Cavs lose Lebron and have to try to hire some homeless guy to bring back a fan base

He has now signed on with Kraft for a new series of Mac and Cheese commercials.

Not trying to defend crime in any way shape or form, but if any of us on this message board were homeless (and some might be for all we know), I am sure that similar allegations would be brought against us. I just hope that he is able to remain sober because now more than any other time with a little bit of jingle in his pockets it is going to be tough.

Don't care the least,I would think it would be next to impossible to be homeless and clean at the same time...if he's not wanted for a serious crime leave him alone. Anyone who could kick a brutal habit/disease like he had living under a bridge and have the intelligence to post that sign (and back it up) should have his own show!

He deserves a fresh start. Nice story in a world full of BS.

These stories are what makes the world full of BS. Good for him, I guess.

Maybe the guy can send some of his new found wealth to the family he ditched for drugs.

He has already admitted he has made mistakes in his past. Not sure what this dirt-digging is going to accomplish.

If I remember correctly from other threads, you are religious. Doesn't your religion preach forgiveness?

Yes my religion teaches forgiveness. The pattern is repentance followed by reconciliation and forgiveness. But what does my faith have to do with this man taking accountability for his actions?

I posted that link because CNN protrayed him as a hero and a victim and that isn't really true. The fact is he put himself in that gutter and left an ex-wife, a couple girlfriends and 9 children to deep poverty in the process.

I'm glad he is attempting to get his act together and I hope he is motivated to do more than feel bad inside. He should start thinking about others starting with his family.
