I was devastated when you died, Meredith said.

You were all cracking up at my funeral, George said in response.George spoke of what he misses about being alive (Dancing til you drop, laughing til you cry, food and textures, the crunch of cereal as you eat it out of the box, thefeel of clean sheets and good pillow at the end of a long day.)

At their final conversation, Meredith told George how much he meant to her.

You changed my life George, she said in one of the episodes most emotional moments, which was soon followed by another, a reunion at the beach of four of Greys original characters, George (Knight), Meredith (Pompeo), Richard (James Pickens Jr.) and Bailey (Chandra Wilson).

Knights appearance is part of a beach motif throughout the pandemic-themed Season 17 of Greys Anatomy designed to bring joy to fans.

It kicked off in the season premiere with the jaw-dropping return of Greys original male lead Dempsey.

Asked after the opener what other beloved characters from Greys past may come back, series executive producer/showrunner Krista Vernoff said:You have to tune in and see who comes to the beach. Itll be a joyful discovery.

Both Dempsey and Knight were original Greys Anatomy cast members alongside Pompeo whose characters were fan favorites. Knight left in Season 5; Dempsey departed in Season 11.

Dempseys McDreamy died after being hit by a semi truck when he pulled over to help a family involved in a car accident. In a similarly selfless act, Knights OMalley jumped in front of a bus to rescue a woman he didnt know. At the time of his exit, Knight said he felt his character had expired after getting less screen time.

Anatomy of a Goal: Santos sends Crew to the Eastern Conference Final – Massive Report

Welcome back to the Anatomy of a Goal, where each week we dissect one goal (or near goal) from the Columbus Crews previous match.

For the second match of the 2020 MLS Cup Playoffs, we take a look at Pedro Santos 99th minute goal that gave the Crew a 1-0 win against Nashville SC as part of their 2-0 Eastern Conference Semi-Final win on Sunday.

Here is a look at the goal from Columbuss winger.

The Black & Gold took the field against the expansion team following a week of limited contact due to seven positive COVID-19 results within the team. Despite the reduced practice time, the Crew started the match brightly before fading as the first half went on. Nashville led Columbus 8-4 in shots at the half and looked to be the most dangerous side.

After halftime, the Black & Gold found their footing and went on to control most of the second half, holding Nashville to nine more shots for the second half plus extra time while recording 13 of their own. All that was for naught as neither team was able to find the back of the net. Extra time beckoned in at MAPFRE Stadium.

Santos game winner begins with a throw-in deep in the Crews defensive half.

Milton Valenzuela takes aim for Gyasi Zardes via a long throw.

Zardes jostles for position between Alistair Johnston and Walker Zimmerman as the ball drops in.

Johnston gets a glancing header onto the ball but sends it back toward his own goal.

Lucas Zelarayan waits on Johnstons glancing header as he shields off Dave Romney.

Zelarayan is able to hold off Romney and take possession of the ball. Zardes will make a run on one side of the No. 10 while Santos makes a parallel run up the sideline.

The Argentine attacker gathers the ball and turns toward the Nashville goal while his teammates continue their runs.

Zimmerman regroups to provide defensive pressure leaving Zelarayan with three options. He can play a pass up the sideline to Santos, attempt to beat Romney and Zimmerman off the dribble or send a pass out in front of Zardes.

Holding off Zimmerman, Zelarayan somehow hits an outside-of-the-right-foot pass around Romney and into the path of Zardes.

Zardes sprints toward the ball while Santos continues his run up the sideline.

The attack is on and the Crew reposition. Zardes will continue his diagonal run toward the sideline and the ball. Santos, seeing Zardes run up the sideline, will arc toward the middle of the goal. Luis Diaz heads toward the back post while Darlington Nagbe makes a trailing run to the top and middle of the goal box.

Santos cuts toward the penalty box and Zardes continues his sprint to the ball. Zimmermans run forward and subsequent pressure leave ample open space between the defense and goalkeeper Joe Willis.

Zardes reaches the ball and takes a touch to redirect its path into the goal box. Santos continues his run to the middle of the 18-yard box while Diaz shifts toward the back post.

Zardes approaches the ball and has three options. He can play a long cross toward Diaz, a pass on the ground to Santos or carry the ball closer to the goal.

The Columbus striker sees Santos and hits a low, diagonal pass toward the winger.

Zardes pass goes right between Romneys legs on its path toward Santos.

The ball slides right between Dax McCarty and Johnston as Santos approaches.

Santos plant foot slides out front under him as he goes to hit a first-touch shot on goal.

The Portuguese is still able to connect, sending the ball toward the post furthest from Willis.

Willis dives too late and the ball rolls under his outstretched arms...

...and into the back of the net!

Anatomy of a Play: Tre’Davious White reads Justin Herbert’s mind – Touchdown Wire

It has been an up-and-down season for Buffalo Bills cornerback TreDavious White. Considered by most to be one of the top cornerbacks in the league entering 2020, White has been managing back and lower body injuries this season, and has not turned in the kind of campaign that Bills fans and the cornerback himself were probably hoping for. But if the Bills do go on to win the AFC East, their narrow win Sunday over the Los Angeles Chargers will be a reason why, and it was White who turned in perhaps the play of the game, reading the mind of rookie quarterback Justin Herbert.

In this breakdown, youll see White read Herberts intentions almost immediately after the snap, and then jump a route working from the other side of the field from his alignment as a Cover 3 cornerback on the outside:

This is a tremendous bit of football savvy and awareness from the cornerback, and it is plays like this that make him one of the best in the NFL.

Anatomy of a K Drama Scene: How Kim Seon Ho, halmeoni’s finale moment cemented the duo as Start Up’s best part – PINKVILLA

*SPOILERS ALERT* In today's edition of Anatomy of a K-drama Scene, we look at Kim Seon-ho and Kim Hae-sook's emotional embrace from Start-Up Ep 16 which also happened to be their last sequence in the popular drama.

*SPOILERS ALERT* As Start-Up; starring Suzy, Nam Joo-hyuk, Kim Seon-ho and Kang Han-na, has finally reached its conclusion leaving fans in a mess of emotions, today's Anatomy of a K-drama Scene is dedicated to the best relationship in the popular tvN drama: Han Ji-pyeong (Seon-ho) and halmeoni (Kim Hae-sook). We're specifically looking at the duo's final sequence inStart-Up Ep 16.

After halmeoni finds out that Nam Do-san (Joo-hyuk) is back and reunited with Seo Dal-mi (Suzy), halmeoni is ecstatic but finds herself thinking about her 'good boy' Ji-pyeong and how alone he must be right now. Especially with sacrificing his love for Dal-mi so she can have her happy ending with Do-san. Halmeoni immediately makes her way to Ji-pyeong's house, which shocks the latter as he knows about her illness (Halmeoni was dropped off by her daughter-in-law Cha Ah-hyun [Song Seon-mi]). As his forever doting guardian angel, halmeoni brings corn dogs and Yakult to cheer Ji-pyeong up. Even in Start-Up Ep 15, it was revealed that one of the things that halmeoni found some hope in amid her blindness was feeding Ji-pyeong.

While halmeoni noted how Dal-mi had told her Ji-pyeong's house was amazing and that it's a shame she didn't see it before, Ji-pyeong has a smile on his face over the food, which is different from his earlier solemn expression. There's a feeling of immediate comfort that Ji-pyeong has always felt when it comes to halmeoni, who is the closest thing to a family for him.

Ji-pyeong brings up the topic of paying off halmeoni's 'emotional support' debt on him by saying he'll buy her an apartment which ticks the latter off and she berates him on the same. "If you feel so bad, do something nice for someone worse off than me," halmeoni states. This inspires Ji-pyeong to eventually invest in Hong Ji-seok's (Yeo Jin-goo cameo) start-up company for orphans as revealed later in Start-Up Ep 16.

When Ji-pyeong exclaims that he owes her and if he were in halmeoni's place, he'd have already gotten it over with, halmeoni gets scared because she thinks her good boy might be leaving Seoul because he can't deal with the heartbreak. While reassuring halmeoni that he's not going anywhere, Ji-pyeong recalls the latter's Ep 1 words to his younger self: "Promise me. If you become successful, don't call me. Don't call me if you become rich and get married. Don't call me if you're happy. I don't want to feel jealous. But call me... if you're going through a rough patch. Come to me if it's raining and you have nowhere to go like you once did. Don't just stand in the rain. You know where to find the keys."

Ji-pyeong tries to lie saying he is doing "a bit to well" but is interrupted by halmeoni, who states, "Don't do that. Call me even if you're doing well. Visit me often. Come see me whether something happens or not... Just come over. Come over and talk nonsense. I'm almost deaf and blind now. You can say and do anything in front of me. Laugh and cry all you want. I won't ask why. So come see me often. You shouldn't get too used to being alone. Don't... become any lonelier, Jipyeong, okay?" As Ji-pyeong fights through his tears and agrees, halmeoni gently reaches for the former's face, wipes his tears and envelops him in a tight embrace. Ji-pyeong's tough exterior immediately shambles as halmeoni sweetly chants, "It's okay. Don't cry. I'm here for you," patting Ji-pyeong's back offering comfort.

The parallels when it comes toStart-Up'sstorytelling have always left fans amazed (the letters, the girl on the swing) but it's the relationship between Ji-pyeong and halmeoni which we will most admire and what will have an impactful effect when we think about Start-Up, years from now. Halmeoni proved yet again in Start-Up Ep 16 just how important her good boy is to her and how much she cares for his happiness. She knows him like the back of her hand, even when blind. Ji-pyeong's confused state of mind over his heartbreak is given more closure knowing that he doesn't have to distance himself from halmeoni because of his feelings for Dal-mi as halmeoni will not allow it.

In their last sequence, it's the subtle hand movements, especially when halmeoni doesn't let go of Ji-pyeong's hand, which tells us that even though Ji-pyeong didn't get the girl at the end, he still has his family and that sometimes is more than enough.
