“The Captain” looks to answer that question. The seven-part docs-series, directed by three-time Emmy winner — and Bronx native — Randy Wilkins, will dig into the true details about what went down during Jeter’s 20-year tenure with the Bronx Bombers. The series looks to be all-encompassing, detailing everything from Jeter’s upbringing to his Hall-of-Fame career to his failed ownership of the Miami Marlins and his journey into fatherhood. Similar to “The Last Dance”, which profiled Michael Jordan and the Bulls dynasty of the 1990s, “The Captain” will blend present-day interviews with archival footage in an attempt to retell the story of the Yanks of the ’90s....

The New York Times reported that the Yankee legend’s’s former Florida-based trainer, Jason Riley, founded the supplement company Elementz Nutrition with pharmacist Charlie Sly, the man who said (and since recanted) he sent HGH to Ashley Manning.

A 2010 story on ESPN.com said Jeter told Riley in 2007 he wanted to play 10 more seasons — he was 33 at the time....

Also known as dermatographic urticaria, or “skin writing,” the condition is not an allergy, though it can resemble an allergy-like rash and cause itching within a matter of minutes.

Earlier this week, former NBA and current SMU coach Larry Brown took the hypothetical situation to a ridiculous new level by saying Kentucky could make the NBA playoffs if it played in the Eastern Conference.

A star player on a team near the bottom of the Eastern Conference took exception to Brown’s hot take — and it sounds like he channeled his inner Jim Mora while doing it....

Yet no matter what he accomplishes at the professional level, he might always be better known for the absurdity that was his high school football career. MORE: How Henry dominates vs. stacked boxes Many have called Henry the greatest running back in the history of high school football on the basis of anecdotal evidence, like the amusing visual of his barreling though teenage opponents like the Incredible Hulk would through a crowd of civilians....

The Bulls confirmed the procedure was a success and added the three-time NBA All-Star will be able to resume basketball activities around mid-October. MORE: Derrick Rose through the years, in photos Rose, 26, suffered a left orbital fracture Tuesday when he was struck in the face by an elbow during the team’s first training camp practice. “He’s still in great spirits, and again, it’s not a structural injury,” said Bulls head coach Fred Hoiberg....

Injured in Sunday’s loss to the Eagles, he had an MRI on his right knee Monday morning and is expected to be sidelined for a while. The MRI will determine if he needs to have surgery. Guice’s injury is in the opposite knee that he had surgery on last year after he tore his left ACL in the 2018 preseason. However, the right knee is the one that gave Guice trouble when he was at LSU....

Terry is no longer an undisputed starter at Chelsea under Antonio Conte, making just five Premier League appearances so far this season. The centre-back’s demise reminds Desailly of his own time at Chelsea and he feels Terry must either call it quits or move on. “I left because they were faster than me, better than me and it was my time to go - their time to shine - and now it is his time,” Desailly told Sportsmail....

The planes carried around 50 migrants, including children, mostly from Venezuela, who DeSantis sent to Martha’s Vineyard as part of an effort to blast the Biden administration’s U.S.-Mexico border policies. In an interview on MSNBC on The Katie Phang Show, Gelber, a Democrat, was asked about the migrants, and noted that he is in Massachusetts by coincidence and was recently asked about DeSantis. “I was wearing my Miami Dolphin hat and I literally got stopped by somebody who, I thought they were going to engage me about the New England Patriots, and they wanted to know if I was from Florida and what was wrong with my governor,” he said....

On Thursday, the 12-person jury issued a recommendation that Cruz receive a sentence of life in prison, as opposed to the death penalty as many had called for, including some parents of the shooter’s victims. Cruz opened fire at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, on Valentine’s Day in 2018, killing 17 and injuring 17 more. Speaking on Friday at a press conference in Cape Coral, the governor was heavily critical of the jury’s decision, saying that the state has executed people for lesser crimes in the past....

Mbappe came off the bench and inspired France’s late comeback in Guingamp, where the world champions overturned a 2-0 deficit to rescue a 2-2 draw on Thursday. The 19-year-old Paris Saint-Germain sensation forced a Holmar Eyjolfsson own goal in the 86th minute before converting a penalty four minutes later. Asked why Mbappe did not start the friendly match, Deschamps said: “On Wednesday, he felt muscle discomfort in his thigh. He did not have a good feeling....

Jackson has a Grade 1 sprain of the AC joint in his left shoulder from the Redskins’ win over Jacksonville, but he said Wednesday that the swelling and soreness have gone down and he’s getting back to full strength and full motion in the arm. The three-time Pro Bowl wideout was abruptly cut by the Eagles in late March and signed by the Redskins a few days later. Said Jackson: “I don’t plan on missing this game....

No seriously, somebody help him up. MORE: Week 15 photos | Week 15 scoreboard | Ugly jackets | FG fail The Eagles are an absolute mess today. Their defense has given up 27 points to a 3-9-1 team with Matt Cassel at the helm and Adrian Peterson out. Jackson even got into it with fellow wide receiver Jason Avant on the sideline. It's so bad that none of his teammates—and definitely none of his opponents—will even help him up off the turf....

They were expected to sit near the bottom of the NFC South standings but instead have had a mini-resurgence. Atlanta has climbed to second in the division with a 4-5 record — behind the Buccaneers only by way of head-to-head tiebreaker. With a playoff spot in sight, coach Arthur Smith has opted to stay with experience over youthful exuberance at quarterback, with veteran Marcus Mariota starting at center over rookie Desmond Ridder...

MORE: NFL’s highest-paid defenders The deal is huge, especially considering Mathieu started training camp on the physically unable to perform list. He is rehabbing a torn ACL in his right knee, which he sustained in Week 15 last season. Mathieu obviously feels lucky, too. Mathieu, 24, played both safety and corner last season. He defended 16 passes, recorded 89 tackles (11 for loss) and snagged five interceptions.

Despite a sluggish start, he had looked at ease against a tiring Bangladesh attack in the opening match of the second T20 World Cup for the visually impaired. With just ten runs to go for a memorable century, his teammates allowed him to have most of the strike and from the boundary ropes, they counted down as the man from Gujarat neared his ton. Thanks to some quick running between the wickets by his runner Ganesh, Ketan had to score just two off the last delivery to reach three figures....

The build is for the recently buffed Voidwalker subclass of Warlocks and ensures that players will be getting their grenades back faster than they can throw them out. The most crucial skills playes should have enabled are Axion Bolt, Soul Rip, The Hunger, and Embrace the Void. Weapons don’t particularly matter in this instance though for an extra boost, Destiny players may want to equip the Voidfang Vestments for the handy extra Axion Bolt seeker and a helm that provides the Ashes to Assets bonus....

One of the deepest and most tragic of Destiny 2’s characters is Eris Morn. Throughout Destiny 2 players have to talk to Eris to receive story missions as well as being able to purchase upgrade materials and ammo synthesis items, which is very rare for vendors in Destiny 2. Eris also sells unique class items, emblems, and shaders in exchange for Black Wax Idol.

For the uninitiated, Trials of Osiris is a Crucible variant that pits two teams of three against one another in an elimination game type. You’ll need the Trials Passage item to gain entry, and from there on out you’ll be able to compete until you garner nine wins or three losses. Combined with the fact that the Trials keep level advantages for individual players enabled, this is a challenge for Destiny players who are really looking to test themselves....
