Excited for the 2021-2022 NFL Season.

Image
  By Sonny Hammoud As the title says, I am looking forward to this upcoming season of NFL football. While I find the NFC conference to be underwhelming for the most part due to majority of the teams rebuilding, I do find the NFC West to be a nice division to look out for as there are some nice quality teams that will battle over a playoff spot. 2 of the teams that come to my mind here are the LA Rams and the Seattle Seahawks. Due to the addition of Matthew Stafford, I think the Rams will have the better edge and win the NFC West over the Seahawks. As for the AFC side, this is where most of my excitement comes from. Last year saw many great AFC highlights such as the rise of the Buffalo Bills and the Cleveland Browns. I am interested to see how the Browns can perform this season and I would like for them to improve even further by winning their division over the Steelers this time in what could be Big Ben’s final season. I especially would love to see the Buffalo Bills go even farther a

Sonny Hammoud - Live crowds being back in sports.

Image
  By Sonny Hammoud As everyone is focused on the NBA Finals, I wanted to point out that I am glad for there to be live crowds again. It honestly really adds a lot more to sports games as the fans can make or break a team. Whether it is Milwaukee cheering like crazy at a win, or Phoenix counting down Giannis' free throw attempts, the investment also helps even just normal viewers on television get interested. This will also be very apparent and very loud if either team can win the NBA Finals at home for these remaining 3 potential games. If the COVID pandemic never happened, I also believe the Super Bowl this year would have had an even louder crowd than it did with it being held in Tampa Bay with their team competing for the trophy. Even now as I worked as a cameraman for high school football games, LSU Shreveport basketball and soccer games, and Shreveport Mavericks games in the TBL, the main thing I noticed was how loud and motivated the crowds were for these games when they were

Sonny Hammoud - Who will win Finals MVP?

Image
  By Sonny Hammoud So far, it has been a very fun two games in the NBA Finals and it gave me something to think about. Who will win the Finals MVP award when it is all said and done? I believe it will come down to three candidates. Chris Paul: He would be the obvious candidate based on narrative due to his long-storied career, how he helped the Suns get to the next level and how this can be his first/only championship. He also has great stats to back it up as he is averaging 27.5 points, 8.5 assists, and a 58.3 3-point percentage. Devin Booker: He is the other likely candidate on the Phoenix Suns and it is definitely remarkable considering this is only the first playoff run of his career. Winning an Finals MVP at this stage would continue to do wonders for his career and establish him further as a top player in the league. He averages 29 points, 6 assists, and the most minutes in the series so far with 43 minutes. Giannis: Only one player has won the Finals MVP award on a losing team (

Sonny Hammoud - 2021 NBA Finals Prediction

Image
  By Sonny Hammoud This has been a very interesting year for the NBA playoffs as I liked how the teams remaining have not won a NBA Finals at all or haven't won it in many decades. Now that the Bucks have defeated the Atlanta Hawks tonight, the Finals will be the Phoenix Suns versus the Milwaukee Bucks. As for who I think will win this series, I believe that will be the Phoenix Suns. I was very impressed by their improvement during the regular season that I really did believe that the team had what it took to beat the Los Angeles Lakers in the first round. I think Chris Paul will be the biggest factor as this is perhaps his only chance at the championship due to his age and he has overcome injuries to get this far. I think Chris Paul would be the Finals MVP but I think Devin Booker will be the leading scorer for the series based on the run that he is on for these playoffs. Crowder will be the main key for three pointers and I think Ayton will do enough to try to slow Giannis down s

Sonny Hammoud - Super Smash Bros. will continue forever.

Image
 By Sonny Hammoud This is my thoughts on how some people believe the Super Smash Bros. series by Nintendo will end with Super Smash Bros. Ultimate on the Nintendo Switch. Simply put, I do not believe that it will end. The main reason for this being that it makes too much money for Nintendo for it to ever end. Whenever a new game console is made by Nintendo, a new Super Smash Bros. is typically made to be the console seller for many people. Due to this, the series has become a necessity for Nintendo in order to make profits. It is also pretty obvious with how Nintendo fans generally want Super Smash Bros. news at any Nintendo Direct that is announced. Similar to Dragon Ball and how that franchise keeps coming back, the demand is too big for this series to ever have a true end and it will continue regardless of who works on it. Even though people have speculated at Sakurai retiring, I do not believe he will retire because Nintendo and its fans will keep wanting him to work on these games

Unexpected character I would like for KOF XV DLC by Sonny Hammoud

Image
 By Sonny Hammoud As everyone predicts characters for KOF XV, I was looking back on SVC Chaos and it reminded me of a unique character I want for KOF XV. Whether it’s base game or DLC, I would love to see Mars People make another return in a SNK fighting game. It would be an interesting take for a Metal Slug representative. He was a character you wouldn’t expect for a fighting game and he would stand out in a good way as he is pure alien in a game where everyone is mostly human. I would be all for it.

Accepting NBA topic requests by Sonny Hammoud

  By Sonny Hammoud Hello, everyone. I just wanted to let you know that I am accepting requests for NBA topics on my blogs. It is hard for me to think about a topic to talk about right now so I thought I might as well ask. It is hard to tell because the season is still early but currently, I think the Finals for the 2021 season will come down to either Lakers, Clippers or the Brooklyn Nets. Of the three, I feel the Brooklyn Nets will take it. I know it will depend on the big three of Irving, Harden, and Durant but I feel the team is strong enough to win the East and beat either the Lakers or the Clippers in the Finals.
