Bosch pleaded guilty in October after he admitted to suppling more than a dozen pro ballplayers with steroids, human growth hormone and other performance-enhancing drugs from a clinic in Coral Gables, Fla. His no. 1 client was Yankees slugger Alex Rodriguez, who was paying Bosch roughly $12,000 a month for pre-filled HGH syringes among other drugs. A-Rod was suspended for the entire 2014 season following MLB’s investigation of Biogenesis. He admitted in November that six years ago he used performance-enhancing substances while with Texas from 2001-03, and has denied usage since....

“I’m experiencing some civil unrest in my city and the center of that civil unrest started from not just the death of George Floyd, but the symbolism of this statue,” Mayor Randall Woodfin said on MSNBC. “Many note that the city of Birmingham has a high black population here in our community and in our city. They feel this statue represents the wrong thing moving forward as well as what should be in an actual city park,” Woodfin said, adding that people should know that Birmingham was founded in 1871, seven years after the Civil War ended....

In the summer of 2016, “The Count”—as he would be known in the octagon—became one of the most unlikely UFC Middleweight Champions after knocking out rival Luke Rockhold at UFC 199.

A new documentary, simply titled Bisping, will chronicle the Manchester, England product’s rise to the pinnacle of his sport. The rise includes adversity he faced along the way to get there—from his humble beginnings to making the leap to become a professional fighter to “convincing” doctors he could see enough to fight to finally raising the title belt....

Kaski District Police Chief Superintendent Ajay KC said in a statement that the chance of finding anyone living in the wreckage was “extremely low.” This is Nepal’s deadliest plane crash in more than 30 years. Videos from onlookers seem to show the plane descending towards the ground, before rapidly twisting onto its side, left wing pointing downwards. Shortly thereafter, the plane crashed, plunging into a gorge. The reasons for the plane’s twisting action and subsequent crash have yet to be confirmed, but a flight data recorder and a cockpit voice recorder, commonly known as the black box, were recovered from the wreck site on Monday, which will help investigators to determine the events that occurred on board before the crash....

The death of George Floyd, a 46-year-old black man who was killed on May 25 after a white Minneapolis police officer, Derek Chauvin, kneeled on his neck for 8 minutes and 46 seconds during an arrest, is a tragedy that has left her and countless people around the world devastated. But seeing thousands upon thousands of people around the world take to the streets and demand change to the system that failed Floyd and many other members of the black community before him, is a “watershed moment,” Cullors told Newsweek in an interview Friday....

The invasion of Iraq opened a whole Pandora’s box of destabilizing forces–among them, a surge of nationalism among the estimated 36 million Kurds who hail from the land that stretches from Turkey and Syria in the west, to Iraq and Armenia in the east. The PKK, which fought Turkey in a vicious war that cost 37,000 lives from 1987 to 1999, abandoned its truce two years ago, after the fall of Saddam Hussein....

Neymar is reportedly a major target for PSG, who are believed to be willing to meet his €222 million release clause . Barca 19/20 to win La Liga Blanc, who was in charge at PSG from 2013-16, believes signing the Brazil star would take his former club to another level, but warned it was no guarantee of success in Europe. “Paris want to become a great European club. It is a club that has incredible economic potential,” he told Italian media, via RMC Sport ....

Blaming one’s mother is the oldest and least original excuse in history. In Greek mythology, Oedipus railed against his mother, along with the Fates, after he inadvertently slept with her and killed his father. Teenagers will blame their mothers for almost anything. It may not be fair to hold Wanda Kaczynski, who is described by her neighbors as a sweet old lady, accountable for turning her son into a possible serial killer....

The fat-cat links to the deadly, but lucrative, culture of gangsta rap may now crumble. That could deal a debilitating blow to the entire rap genre, a fate that is widely feared in the world of black music. No matter how successful independent black labels, such as Death Row, become, they often still need the distribution might of the majors. To lose that support would be a tragic legacy of Tupac Shakur’s short life....

When Shakespeare (Joseph Fiennes) explains how Mercutio dies, Bloom exclaims, ““He dies beautifully!’’ and launches into: ““Ask for me tomorrow and you shall find me a grave man....

Actor and comedian Andy Richter compared the former Mayor of New York City to a “vampire at a Garlic festival” on Twitter. “Super rich people get really used to never being around people who tell them they’re wrong, so seeing Bloomberg on that debate stage tonight was like seeing a vampire at a garlic festival that he’d paid hundreds of millions of dollars to attend. In other words, a true delight....

The striker picked up an injury in training and missed the 2-1 victory at Watford and now is set to be unavailable once again for the trip to Stamford Bridge. Former Blues midfielder Kevin De Bruyne has also been ruled out of the clash in a significant blow to City’s hopes of maintaining their unbeaten start to the league campaign.

Toronto’s MLB team announced Friday that it will resume playing home games at Rogers Centre on July 30.
