Cam Newton Taps In To Home Alone When Explaining Anatomy Of Teammates Nicknames – CBS Boston

ByMichael Hurley, CBS Boston

BOSTON (CBS) Cam Newton loves dishing out nicknames within the Patriots locker room. Its really become his thing.

The genesis of some nicknames is a lot easier to figure out than others, though. And on Thursday, Newton explained exactly what went into the process of applying the nickname 30 For 30 to new receiver Isaiah Ford.

He does have a nickname. Hot off the press. His nickname is 30 For 30. Youre probably asking yourself, Why 30 For 30?' Newton said. So I asked him, I said, Yo, Isaiah, like, do you have any nicknames you like? And he was like, Yeah you can just call me Zay. I said Cool, cool. Um, well, if you dont know like, my name is Cam and Im the nicknamer around here, pretty much, for what its worth. I said, So tell me a little bit about you. Like do you have a hidden talent, do you play a musical instrument, do you know how to sing, do you know how to draw or whatever? And he was like, No, I know how to hoop.'

So I looked at him, and I was like, You know how to hoop? And he was like, Yeah, I know how to hoop. And he was like, Well, shoot, in high school, I averaged 30 points. So I said, Well, there you go. 30 For 30. Thats your nickname. Boom.

Newton said he did a little Googling and couldnt find that statistic, but MaxPreps does indeed show Ford averaging 30.1 points per game as a senior at Trinity Christian Academy in Jacksonville. Ford does know how to hoop.

The nickname is pretty much catchy. I like it. I dont know if its gonna stick, Newton added. See, its too early to tell if its gonna stick now. But as of right now, the pending nickname for new guy Isaiah is 30 For 30.

Later in the video conference, Newton was asked to clarify some of his other nicknames for current Patriots.

On Ryan Izzo earning the Buzzo nickname, Newton revealed, Yeah, and that name came from Home Alone. The brother, Buzz. And I thought Iz kinda resembled Buzz the older brother. So Izzo. Buzzo. You see.

Newton also confirmed that Crazy Legs is Deatrich Wise Jr., Bent Dawg is JaWhaun Bentley, and Bo Diddley is Beau Allen. Newton also shared his thought process when doling out nicknames for the specialists.

Well, its usually Kicker Guy,' Newton said of kicker Nick Folk. But I wanted to call him kind of Paul Pierce Guy, because he did kind of fake like he was injured, but came back and balled.

The back story there: Folk was questionable with a back injury for Monday nights game vs. the Jets, but then played, kicked the game-winning 51-yard field goal, and earned AFC Special Teams Player of the Week. The Paul Pierce reference is of course a reference to the Celtics great in a wheelchair during the 2008 Finals, only to return to the game to nail down some key 3-pointers.

Newton continued.

Then its Kicker Guy, Punter Guy, Snapper Guy. But Snapper Guy is Bill Belichicks Favorite Guy, because hes the only person who talks to the team, you know, from Veterans Day. And, yeah, so, its the trifecta. Its Kicker Guy, Punter Guy, Snapper Guy.

One can only wonder what Newton would have called Hall of Fame punter Ray Guy.

‘Grey’s Anatomy’ Star Jesse Williams Challenges Kehlani to Sing Show’s Theme Song on ‘Quizzed’ – Hollywood Reporter

10:13 AM PST 11/11/2020byAnna Chan, Billboard

Talk about a good thing! Kehlani sat down with Grey's Anatomy star Jesse Williams for Billboard's latest season two episode of "Quizzed" to test her knowledge on ABC's long-running medical drama, which returns for season 17 on Nov. 12.

"You better be good!" teases Williams, who plays the beloved Dr. Jackson Avery, as he prepares to begin quizzing her about the show.

"I'm nervous!" Kehlani admits as they get started with the True or False questions in round one.

She starts off answering a little hesitantly, but hits her stride when it came to a question about the show's instantly recognizable song. Says Williams, "'How to Save a Life' by The Fray is the show's theme song." Kehlani quickly answers that it's false.

"Do you know what it is?" the actor asks.

"I know what it sounds like ...," the singer-songwriter offers.

At that, Williams brings in a challenge: "Let's hear it!"

After laughing and waving her hand in the negative, Kehlani responds, "No! I can't make that little ding sound!" Though the "Take You Back" singer turns down the opportunity to sing the tune (it's Psapp's "Cosy in the Rocket"), she says she might just sample it instead.

Williams gave Kehlani even more of a challenge when round three -- the quotes section -- rolled around. "I'm terrible at this!" cries the singer at the start of the round. "I don't even know quotes from ..."

"You know your own lyrics?" Williams presses.

"Barely!" admits Kehlani. "On stage, it takes me forever if they're from more projects older than a project ago."

See how well Kehlani knows Grey's Anatomy by watching the full episode of "Quizzed" above!

Fear The Walking Dead: 6 Wildest Character Decisions From That Grey’s Anatomy-ish Episode – CinemaBlend

Fear the Walking Dead's cold open is where the episode title's Jasper came up, and it also featured a compressed roller coaster of choices for the short-lived rebel Paige. Injured and in slight danger, Ellen Locy's Paige is outed by Virginia as being part of the "End is the Beginning" group, plays innocent, gets snappy, takes one of the Pioneers' guns, makes an ominous threat, and finally blows her own head off to avoid going back with Virginia. It was pretty solid foreshadowing to how the group played into the episode's big inciting incident, which is still something of a question mark, as well as dodging Virginia's torturous interrogation tactics.

Derek Shepherd Returned to Grey’s Anatomy for the Season 17 Premiere – TV Guide

[Warning: The following contains spoilers for the Season 17 premiere of Grey's Anatomy. Read at your own risk!]

This is not a drill:Grey's Anatomy returned this week with a two-hour blockbuster premiere that no one could have seen coming. Derek Shepherd (Patrick Dempsey) returned at the very end of the jaw-dropping episode, in what appears to be a dream, to reunite with Meredith (Ellen Pompeo). It was his first time on the show since the character's death in Season 11.

Meredith collapsed at the end of the episode and found herself staring out at the beach, only to hear Derek calling her name from farther out on the sand. The preview for next week's episode confirmed that while Meredith may be hallucinating, we were not imagining McDreamy on our screens. As the Grey Sloan team investigates what made Meredith collapse, it appears that she and Derek will be communing in her mental limbo.

"The most important task we had this season was to honor the reality of this global pandemic and the impact it's having particularly on healthcare workers. Along with that, we had to come up with creative ways to allow our show to still be fun and romantic and provide some escapism. Enter Patrick Dempsey," Grey's boss Krista Vernoff said in a statement to TV Guide. "The beach motif which will continue beyond the premiere provided a way for us to live outside the pandemic, even for a little while here and there. And Derek's return provided pure joy for us, for Meredith, and for the fans. Season 17 has been a Herculean effort by our cast, our crew, our writers, and our partners at Disney and ABC and we are proud of it. But our effort is nothing compared to the work of our frontline healthcare workers to whom this season is dedicated. We hope our show inspires you to wear your masks to protect them and each other. As Derek Shepherd would say, 'It's a beautiful day to save lives.'"

Elsewhere in the premiere, flashbacks caught us up on how Grey Sloan was dealing with the pandemic in April 2020, as well as what's changed since we last saw the doctors. There were burning questions answered in some storylines, major developments in others, and, of course, the episode-ending shocker. Here's everything you need to know about what happened before that cliffhanger put us on the edge of our seats.

Owen and TeddyThey really made people wait until the second hour of the premiere to find out about the fallout after Teddy's (Kim Raver) humiliating sex voicemail. In the flashbacks, Owen (Kevin McKidd) pretended not to know about Teddy and Tom (Greg Germann) until the perfect moment arrived for him to play the voicemail back to Teddy. It was savage but satisfying, and Teddy spent most of the episode shunned by rest of the hospital staff. Teddy tried her best to appeal to Owen at the end of the episode, but it doesn't look like he's in a mindset to forgive her anytime soon.

Meredith and DeLucaThe last we saw of Meredith (Ellen Pompeo) and DeLuca (Giacomo Gianniotti), DeLuca had miraculously figured out what was causing problems with Richard (James Pickens Jr.) and then admitted he had his own mental health issues to confront. The Season 17 premiere confirmed what Station 19 said in its third season: DeLuca has Bipolar II disorder. In the current timeline, DeLuca is seeing a therapist and sleeping regularly, but it took another intervention and an emotional break for DeLuca to get the help he desperately needed. At the end of the premiere, it was still unclear where he and Meredith stand romantically. Obviously, he'll be by her side trying to figure out what's wrong with her following the collapse.

Jo and JacksonNever in a million years did we expect to put these two together, but Season 17 is apparently trying to make Jo (Camilla Luddington) and Jackson (Jesse Williams) a thing. Jo, in a desperate attempt to get over Alex (Justin Chambers), hit up Jackson for some no-strings-attached sex or, as she put it, the "bridge" between the husband that abandoned her and a woman ready to move on with her life. Jackson actually said yes (because obviously), but Jo ended up drunkenly sobbing into his mouth rather than getting down to the Kenny G playlist Jackson had curated for the occasion. After some awkward morning-after tension, the two decided to forget the whole thing and agreed to be friends. Is this who Pompeo was referring to when she teased that she has a new favorite couple this season? Yeah, we don't think think the book has closed on this one yet, but it's going to be a minute before we know how we feel about it.

How Grey's Anatomy, This Is Us, and Other Shows Are Putting Coronavirus Into Their Storylines

Richard and CatherineRichard is officially cobalt-free after his disastrous hip replacement, and he showed up just in time to help Grey Sloan figure out a much needed cleaning hack for their personal protective equipment (PPE). However, he and Catherine (Debbie Allen) spent most of the premiere at odds, with Richard still angry that Catherine didn't stand up for him when he was fired from Grey Sloan at the end of Season 15. This fight has been going on for a long time. However, some chiding by the right people led to a reconciliation, and Catherine demoted Tom in order to make Richard the Chief of Chiefs at Grey Sloan.

Amelia and LinkThe pair are taking care of the Grey-Shepherd brood, including a newborn, while they are on parental leave. They had some 10 p.m. broadcast-standards-level sex to celebrate Link's (Chris Carmack) birthday. Oh, and the baby's name is Scout Derek Shepherd Lincoln.

Grey's Anatomy airs Thursdays at 9/8c on ABC.

‘Grey’s Anatomy’: Camilla Luddington Described Her Scenes With Jesse Williams in the Season Opener As ‘So Much Fun’ – Showbiz Cheat Sheet

Camilla Luddington ofGreys Anatomyis planning on a different path for her character, Jo Wilson, in season 17. With her husband, Alex Karev, leaving her last season, Jo decided to seek some male companionship in the premiere episode with pal Jackson Avery (Jesse Williams) to start getting over her ex.

The British-born actress discussed the plot twist in a recent interview, apparently enjoying the turn her characters relationship has taken with her co-star.

In the season 17 opener, Jo appeals to Jackson for somewhat of a rebound hookup as a way to help her get over Alex. Jackson was happy to oblige and provided a romantic atmosphere for their tryst, only to have Jo break down in tears when things started getting physical.

The pals decided Jo wasnt ready to take the intimate step she planned on and decided to keep things platonic. Luddington felt Jos initial intentions for healing were a step in the right direction.

I definitely think thats happened where youre like, You know what, I just need a new guy, and its gonna help me move forward a little,' Luddington told Cosmopolitan of the storyline. She just didnt realize she wasnt ready for it yet. But I also felt like Jackson was very sweet when she had her snotty breakdown.

Luddington and Williams evidently welcomed the plot twist, where they have been requesting a storyline between Jo and Jackson.

Jesse and I have a lot of fun together in real life, and for so many seasons, weve been asking to have scenes together, Luddington revealed. That scene was actually shot last season. We didnt know that was coming until [showrunner] Krista [Vernoff] was like, So, you guys are going to hook up. Its gonna be really funny hook up. Those characters havent really interacted a lot, either.

The British actor saw the interlude between the two colleagues as a mixed bag, but gave kudos to Jo for taking control of her own destiny.

I loved it because I felt like, first off, its really funny, even though its kind of depressing, too, Luddington explained. But I do love that Jo is advocating for herself and kind of just going for it. I think it takes a lot of strength to just go in and say to someone what you need and want and put yourself out there. And we had so much fun filming it.

As for what the rest of season 17 holds for the two Grey Sloan docs, Luddington kept their future vague.

What Ill share is that I think its at least the seed of a friendship, she told Cosmopolitan. I think that theyve shared something intimate, even though it didnt go very far. I think they were both very vulnerable in that moment.

While there may be potential for a romance between Jo and Jackson, Luddington is hoping her character enjoys being on her own for the time being.

RELATED:Why Greys Anatomys Camilla Luddington Says Her First Scene With Ellen Pompeo Was Legitimately Terrible

I want her to have her single girl season, the Greys Anatomy star said of Jo. Personally, I dont think her jumping into a long term relationship is the right thing for her right now. I think you always need that time after a huge breakup like that to kind of sit back and breathe. I would like Jo to play the field, thats what I would like.

ABCs Greys Anatomy airs on Thursday nights.

‘Grey’s Anatomy’ Fans Point Out the Minor Character Who Brought the Most ‘Perfectly Delivered Line’ of the Season 17 Premiere – Showbiz Cheat Sheet

TheGreys AnatomySeason 17 premiere brought the return of abeloved minor character. Hes only appeared briefly in the series, but fans were ecstatic to see the return of his comedic relief. Last season fans called forZander Perez (Zaiver Sinnett) to be upgradedto a series regular. Now, they are begging for him to be a part of every episode.

WhenGreys AnatomySeason 17 opened, the entire hospital was very different. The doctors were overwhelmed by the full-blown COVID-19 crisis. There was a check-in outside the hospital doors where staff members took patients temperatures before they entered.

When Zander Perez talks to a patient who has a possible allergic reaction to nuts, the man insists that he does not want a Chinese doctor.

Oh, OK, then you are going to want to follow this green line to the parking lot, Perez tells the patient. Put your rude self back in your car and hope you dont go into anaphylactic shock.

Perez delivers the line without raising his voice or getting angry. The patient understands what he is saying, puts his head down, and heads to the emergency room.

He made me laugh out loud when he told the rude patient to go back to the parking lot! one fan wrote onReddit.

Other fans agreed that they loved Perezs line.

That was such a perfectly delivered line, another fan added. He sent that guy to hell so politely; the guy was looking forward to the trip.

Some fans even add that it was the best moment of the entire season premiere.

I felt like his sassy remark was the most COVID accurate thing about this episode, one viewer wrote.

Again, fans are begging for Perez to be upgraded to a series regular.

When Catherine Fox bought out Pac-North (Debbie Allen), Zander was hired to continue his residency at Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital. The 27-year-old actor who portrays Perez, Sinnett, has worked his whole life to become a screenwriter. He wrote his first pilot in college, while other teens were out partying, according to hisInstagram.

Sinnett was thrilled when he began working on his beloved medical drama and then shocked when they asked him to act in an episode. The season premiere marked his fourth episode acting instead of writing for the show.

Sinnett was part of theGreys Anatomyproduction crew for seasons 15 and 16. His official title is executive assistant to Andy Reaser and Meg Marinis, who are writers on the show. For 2020, Sinnett is an actor on Greys Anatomy and a writer on the spinoff, Station 19. Fans hope to see him again very soon on their TV screens.
