Props to reddit.com for making this possible for him.

Now he will have plenty of spare cash to blow on more blow.

So much unwarranted cynicism in this thread. The guy got a fresh start. Hopefully he makes the best of it.

Great story.

Very VERY nice job by the Cavs to not only give him a job but a roof over his head as well.

In this day and age, it's the basics of survival that matter the most.

This is crazy. Twice in the past week I drove from Cleveland to Columbus and took his exit and saw him on the side of the road. Nuts!!!!!

Damn, his voice is almost as epic as Optimus Prime's.

...but at least this man can now put food on the table of his family and provide a decent living for himself as well.

If anyone is desperate for attention, it's you. How you gonna hate on this guy? Ban/suspend me if you want....you're a punk.
