Sorry if this was posted but he's on the cover of this week's SI. I can't believe it's been 24 years. The work he and his family have done has been incredible. This is something Jet and Dolphin fans can agree on.

Well Hell has surely frozen over.. never in my wildest imagination did I ever think I'd give one of your threads 5-stars!

Kudos to that guy for not blindly accepting the hand he was dealt.
 
That whole deal was so sad. Hard to believe its been that long...
 
Yes. He was a football player at The Citadel in the mid 80s and was paralyzed after a big hit.
wrong, it was actually a very simple looking play that didn't look like it would amount to such an injury. Unfortunately it did.
 
The Buoniconti project was credited for helping save Kevin Evertt of the Bills from being paralyzed.
 
At least he didn't get killed like that other guy.

Beat me to it. They have done some outstanding work in this. Everett is walking to day because of the effort put forth by Marc and company. It's really pretty exciting stuff.
 
Wow, hard to believe 24 years has gone by. Hopefully they will continue to work on finding a cure for paralysis. Great story.
 
Marc and his experiences has been an incredible inspiration to me. I'm a C4/5 15 years post from a collision during a hockey game. Life changing yes, life ending... No Way!

Talk about coincindence, Byrd (Jets) broke his neck on Nov. 29th, my birthday while I was in NO watching the Dolphins lose to the Saints. That day I made the Domes diamond vision doing my Dolphin dance, my wife was so embarressed as the food rained on us. My 15 min. of fame!
