This year it was far from it… I got new work/projects, i’m doing ok financially, i finalized the issue with my son and his Mom (case...

Crisis within Hankook Verdes? Sergio & Leech Speak...
I have been a silent spectator of the BPFL Insurance Cup this season. I watched as Verdes started the season in dismal fashion, losing against Newcomers Nizhee Corozal and several others. I watched as they lost against Cruz Azul 12-0 in agregate. And i knew something was wrong, this wasn’t the Hankook Verdes of last year, the verdes that fought to the last in the championship, something...

Belize's Hankook Verdes VS Mexico's Cruz Azul !!!
What the hell!!! I think one of the most exciting matches ever! Hankook Verdes my very own home team vs one of Mexico’s Power houses in football!
and how are we to do this? in the Concacaf Champions League, no less. While i had hoped for a smaller team, as luck would have it Belizeans would face up against Mexicans in the second competition for the year.
Though I think that Cruz Azul is...

After 22 years!! finally for all Verdes fans the wait is over! Verdes won the league in dramatic fashion yesterday. In what could only be considered a dose of their own medicine, B.D.F lost at their own game: Defense. From the begining of the game, Verdes came out determined to end the 22 years draught. Within minutes… Daniel Jimenez handed a pass to his brother Orland “Leech”...

Hell is to Float, Heaven is to Steer!
A 50 year old man once gave me this quote, after explaining that he had worked most of his life as a pharmacist, never married, and had no kids. He told me that what the phrase means is to be in control of your life, and thus your destiny. Doing what you love to do and being in control. The phrase kept nagging at me and was in the back of my mind for a while. After a while i forgot about it…...

There's no money in web design anymore.
Ok, before all the flaming starts… lets just say that at least in my country Belize, there isn’t. Seriously though… speaking about web design as it’s traditionally thought of… i can safely say that the web design business is dead. So how do i come to this conclusion? well for starters here’s a short list. 1. Everyone and Anyone who is somebody in the business...
Feeling Burned Out

Though while i feel i’ve been productive at work, and i feel i’m getting more organized as we go along. Today i felt tired, as i sometimes feel. I feel a lack of energy, the want to quit, even before the day is over. Is it cause...

Alexi Lalas pisses off some English Football Heads, but i have to agree with him, the Premiership is basically 4 teams, man utd, Chelsea, Liverpool and Arsenal. While the MLS is young, there is a lot of competition. I admire Lalas as an executive, now lets see if his decision in bringing David Beckham will pay off.

Goodbye Verdes, another season without winning!!
Well as disappointing as it may be, i cant say i didn’t see it coming. Verdes have once again been knocked out, this time in the playoff stage of the RFG Insurance Cup. Verdes drew 1-1 with Dangriga’s Revolutionary Conquerer’s, but lost because of the away goal rule. They had previously drawn 0-0 in the first game of the home and away series. It must have been bittersweet, not...
