    I've not seen this story anywhere on SJ. A very inspirational story by Greg Garber:

    I'm so glad someone posted this. Great story by Garber, and it's wonderful to see all the attention Lt. Col. Gadson is getting now that the Giants have made the SB. I had the privilege to hear Gadson's story in person last fall. He is an amazing man; his attitude in the face of such traumatic injuries is simply inspirational. The Giants are fortunate to have crossed paths with him.

    Yes, heir to the baby-food fortune and he still wants to write sports. :)

    The Wash Post had a similar story today (friday), as did at least one local tv station. Doesn't do anything to diminish it though.

  7. Agreed. It's hard to find a better takeout writer than Kevin Manahan. He's driving to the Super Bowl and doing a series of Giants stories from various locales. Terrific.
