Just more on this feel-good story. It really puts everything into perspective - especially during this time of the year.

I love this story, it's so awesome

dude seems like a good guy and intelligent, just probably had some bad luck that led him to the situation that he is in now, glad parcells is doing this for him

agreed

Hopefully the guy can get it turned around. But at least he keeps in good spirits – thanks to people like Parcells who treat him like an actual person.

yea

can parcells get him a job at the stadium, or at least an interview? or he prob can’t since he doesn’t have an address…i really hope this guy straightens his life out and gets back on track, and i am sure what Parcells is doing is lifting his spirits up

good question

But like you said, not sure how difficult it is to get hired without a proper address.

by Matty I on Dec 24, 2009 3:25 PM EST up reply actions  

yea i think you need a proper address

every application i have ever filled out has asked for my address, so i think that may be stopping him

which would be a problem

and i think the IRS requires the address, not the employers…i could be wrong

He even acknowledges that he has to get the proper ID

He just seems like a guy who has just fallen on hard times, this really is a heart warming story.

yea

which is very very hard to do without a proper address…hopefully though he can find a way out of this mess and get back on track

yea

the good news is he has the right attitude. Hopefully some luck shines on him and he catches a break.

I read this and question it.

Did Parcells confirm this, or is this someguy trying to get noticed?

8-8 is a victory at this point!

This is legit.
