Didn't exactly know where to put this but since he is obviously unemployed...

Very interesting and I hope that he gets a job.

he was interviewed today by local radio station program ''dave and jimmy'' and during the hour long interview the man received 15 job offers from hollywood, espn, NBA, NFL and commercials for other companies.

He was offered a job as an announcer for the Cleveland Cavaliers club of the NBA, plus a HOUSE!.

This guy was a former drug user and homeless alcoholic. The Cavs should have used some of this money to sign a decent small forward, point guard, and center.

This is a very very rude post, the guy has turned himself around and deserves a second chance.

Don't worry, that poster was just a bit upset b/c they lost LeBron James

As far as the OP video, that was pretty cool. The radio field is extremely competitive right now, but it's great to hear that this video has opened doors for him. It also highlights the power of traditional and new media.
