From Homeless to Radio Announcer... to Arrested in Record Time

Maybe there was a reason he was found wandering on the streets with no access to a decent mirror.

There, now I've said it. I pray Mr. Williams is able to get his life back on track... and doesn't end up as an object lesson in self-destructiveness.



Ted Williams arrested is the next episode in the saga of an Ohio homeless man discovered then offered a job to be a broadcaster for the Cleveland Cavaliers.
According to reports, Williams was detained after getting into a heated argument with his 29-year-old daughter, Jamey, at the Los Angeles Renaissance Hotel. He reportedly had scratches on his face.
"When that was said out of my mouth, my daughter exploded -- fists got a flyin' -- none of which were mine," said Williams, who was in Southern California to appear on "Entertainment Tonight" and "Dr. Phi."
Williams daughter says that her father, a recovering alcoholic, has started drinking again since becoming an instant celebrity earlier this month.
"He's consumed at least a bottle of Grey Goose a night, at least," Janey said. "That's not including the Coronas he orders, that's not including the Budweisers he orders, that's not including the other alcohol, the wines. He drinks heavily
