Nnamdi's Awesome-Muah-Ness Extends Beyond the Field:

Nnamdi Went Out Of His Way:

Nnamdi Asomugha is not only in a league of his own on the field, he showed that he is in a league of his own off of it as well.

Having traversed various parts of the world -- Africa, Europe, South America -- the Raiders' star cornerback wanted to share the exhilaration of visiting new places, expose some deserving kids to opportunities they wouldn't have otherwise. So he set up a college tour last month to Boston for six underprivileged youth from the East Oakland Youth Development Center (EOYDC).

Saint,

I like this post and this site but no comments at all when a Raider is truely a good person and gives back to the community? This is the second post like that in the last few weeks. This guy is a first class dude and deserves our admiration for the person he is on and off the field. I don’t mind the Raider bad boy image but a few Namdi’s go a long way.

I live, breath and breed Silver and Black!

Comments are usually to spark debate or to disagree with a premise given by the author of the post. With this post there’s nothing to question or doubt – Nnamdi Asomugha is not only an amazing football player, he’s also an amazing person. Really no need for everyone to state the obvious in comments.

you’re probably right…I wonder though if there would be comments if the article was about him being in jail for dog fighting, or beating his wife (wait, that’s not illegal is it?)

I live, breath and breed Silver and Black!
