3 Minute Drill: Joel Figueroa

Whats your favourite childhood toy?
My Super Nintendo. I had Super Mario, Street Fighter, etc. Super Mario was my favourite because I used to play the game with my brother.

Favourite TV show?
I really don’t watch too much TV. I try to catch up on stuff that is already done like Breaking Bad and Dexter. I like to binge watch things.

Favourite dessert?
Vanilla ice cream, probably. It’s good and gets the job done. You can add a lot of things to it or eat it how it is.

One thing you want to accomplish before you turn 40?
I’d like to help the less fortunate or start a foundation and help people in need. There is a lot of kids starving and I’d like to help out.

Favourite non-football sports moment?
Watching some older clips of Michael Jordan playing. When I went to see him he was old, but watching him play back in the day was some of the best I’ve ever seen.

One country youd like to visit?
I’d probably like to go to Spain or Japan. I like soccer and I’d like to watch a couple clubs play.

What is the last movie you saw in theatres?
I think it was Mission Impossible.

What is your guilty pleasure song?
There’s a lot of songs. I like R&B a lot so I listen to Maxwell and Anthony Hamilton a lot.

Who was your idol growing up?
On the field it was Warren Sapp, although he plays defence. Just watching him play and the passion he had for the game, really got me into football.
