Picture for a second being locked in a teenage boy's bedroom for three days – except this bedroom is occupied by 30,000 teenage boys and they're listening to loud and terrible rock music. You are imagining E3, the world's largest video game exhibition.

Junior dos Santos: Fighting is worth the health risks because it's 'everything to me'



LAS VEGAS – Junior dos Santos stretched out his entire 6-foot-4 frame, filling an over sized chair in a locker room at the MGM Grand Garden. Minutes earlier, he'd completed a surprisingly intense workout, just days from his three-round heavyweight bout Saturday against Mark Hunt in the co-main event of UFC 160

Bruins fourth line was dominant in Game 3



NEW YORK -- For most of Tuesday night at Madison Square Garden, it was looking like Rangers goaltender Henrik Lundqvist was finally going to have his big game in net. The man who would be King was 5-0 in his last five Game 3 appearances and was shutting down the Bruins at every turn.

Preakness 2013: Orb One Step Closer To Winning Triple Crown

Preakness 2013

The horse with the oddest name in racing history will approach the gates on May 18 with a chance to inch closer to becoming a legendary thoroughbred along with the likes of Seabiscuit and Secretariat. Does Orb have what it takes?

The Preakness Stakes, the second leg in horse racing’s Triple Crown, is the one that determines whether or not we will see history made. Set at Pimlico Race Course in Baltimore, Maryland on May 18, it’s the race where the Kentucky Derby winner is put to the test yet again, and can move one step closer to becoming a Triple Crown winner.

Happy Mother’s Day to all the fightin’ moms, because all moms are fighters



When Cat Zingano beat Miesha Tate at "The Ultimate Fighter" finale in April, it marked the first time a mother fought in, and won, a UFC bout. Weeks later, it was Sara McMann winning. Another mom, another raised hand. Mothers are now 2-0 in the UFC.
Zingano told Cagewriter in February that she doesn't have to look far to find motivation in a fight because of her son.
"When someone has their arms around my neck, I think I have to be here for my child. Nothing's going to stop me."
But really, is there any surprise to see a mom win a fight? Whether it's getting her children to clean her room, getting a bully to back off, or just keeping her children alive, all moms are fighters.

LIL WAYNE TO CHICAGO BULLS DRINKS ON ME! After Heat Smackdown




Lil Wayne still hates the Miami Heat so much ... he hooked up the Chicago Bulls with free booze after they upset LeBron James and company -- and TMZ got a pic of their celebration.

It all went down Monday night at Excess Mondays at Mansion nightclub in Miami where, we're told, Wayne invited a few Bulls players (who were already in the club) to party with him ... just hours after they beat the Heat 93-86.

The guys with Weezy were (left to right) -- Mack Maine (pres. of Young Money Entertainment) ... along with Bulls' Taj Gibson, Richard Hamilton, Vladimir Radmanovic and Nazr Mohammed
