He's got a famous baseball name, but Brooklyn-born homeless man Ted Williams has something the Splendid Splinter wasn't famous for: a great voice.Williams, a Brooklyn native who panhandles near the corner of I-71 and Hudson Street in Cleveland, has become an Internet sensation after Columbus Dispatch reporter Kevin Joy posted a clip of Williams demonstrating his dulcet tones by the side of the road.In a YouTube clip, Williams, wearing an Army fatigue jacket and sporting a shaggy mane of hair, is seen carrrying a cardboard sign that reads:"I HAVE A GOD GIVEN GIFT OF VOICE. I'M AN EX-RADIO ANNOUNCER WHO HAS FALLEN ON HARD TIMES. PLEASE! ANY HELP WILL BE GREATEFULLY APPRECIATED. THANK YOU!"Joy and a Dispatch videographer then pulled the car alongside Williams and said, "We're going to make you work for your dollar."Williams, without pause, smiled and said in a voice as smooth as Casey Kasem's, "When you're listening to nothing but the best of oldies, you're listening to Magic 98.9. And we'll be back for more right after these words."The clip has generated interest from Cleveland Cavaliers owner Dan Gilbert, whose team has extended an offer to Williams to do voiceover work."He hasn't accepted the offer," Cavs spokesman Garin Narain said, "but there is a lot of voiceover work needed at Quicken Loans Arena."---MORE---
There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site
