Gas2No99 Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 Jets OT Breno Giacomini travels to Egypt to teach football, ride camel Former Seattle Seahawks running back Marshawn Lynch wouldn't have had the chance to rap while riding a camel in Egypt if it weren't for New York Jets tackle Breno Giacomini and a couple of his best friends. Five years ago, Giacomini helped to create American Football Without Barriers, a nonprofit organization that teaches underprivileged kids in the United States and around the world about football. He and former Louisville teammate Gary Barnidge, along with an ex-Louisville classmate, hatched the idea. Giacomini and Barnidge, a tight end for the Cleveland Browns, led a contingent of 10 NFL players to Egypt, where they will conduct free football camps. Giacomini has chronicled his trip on social media, showing the world what a 318-pound man looks like on a camel. "There's a lot more football in the world than people think," Giacomini told the Associated Press. "In China, they started with cone drills and now they're up to maybe 15 padded teams. In Brazil, they started on the beach and they're up to like 45 padded teams now. Same thing with Istanbul." AFWB picks an overseas site every year after reviewing proposals from various American football federations around the world, according to the AP. It also holds camps in Massachusetts and Florida in the hometowns of Giacomini and Barnidge, respectively. The community-minded Giacomini, 30, said he intends to stay involved in AFWB long after his career is over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
