Greetings Favelazoneheads. We back again! Tell a friend! It really would be in my best interest to not spread myself so thin with my projects. In the words of Jordan Belfort, The Wolf of Wall Street himself, he learned that ambition is good – not greed. I am not greedy in the sense of attempting […]

Messi the Immortal Holiday Greetings one and all Favelazoneheads…there has been much ado about a lot of things (sorry Shakespeare) in the world of soccer. Like damn – from Ronaldo and Messi not only remaining relevant but leading statistical categories in major competitions after decades is surprising but not out of the realm of possibility. […]

Reggae Boyz stumble as they approach finish line Some things ain’t meant to be. Watching Jamaica take on Mexico showed completely different styles of play (a tale of two countries). The rasta men could hang when it came to pure athleticism but when it came to ball movement, composure, and creating legitimate goalscoring chances, the […]

Hello one and all favelazoneheads! I am sincerely sorry for my lengthy hiatus. I have been focused on writing a novella (no small feat). Writing a book is an extremely difficult undertaking (arguably the most difficult in all my life) and if I manage to get it published (fingers crossed) I will definitely be taking […]

The time has come. Although my semi final predictions for winners was only half right, the Argentine team advances, and that is all that matters. The Moroccans can hold their heads high having advanced as far as they have though a third place finish proved out of reach as the Croatians stake their claim as […]

Upsets Continue Well well well…I don’t think ANYONE saw that coming. Morocco is proving to truly be the darling of this World Cup. I was not expecting this or hoping for this at all but hey, let the dancing in the streets of Agraba continue. In what was a not entirely exciting quarterfinal match with […]

The thing that I love about artists who make it big is they always find the time to make a song to flex on everyone that ever threw shade in their direction. Drake falls just shy of Toronto’s other favorite son The Weeknd for title of most vindictive artist of the past decade. I honestly […]

Hello one and all favelazoneheads. I hope the late summer air is tinged with nostalgia and evocative twilight as we wave goodbye to yet another magical three months (best out of the year – don’t care what anyone says). The long lazy summer days are not the only things we are waving goodbye to. Queen […]

Transfers Galore Move over Lana del Rey, because we don’t have time to mope around this summer as things are just too action packed to be depressed (the idle mind is the devil’s playground). This is an interesting summer people! Not going to say it is the most eventful transfer window we have seen (far […]
