If you’ve been thinking about upgrading from earbuds to something a little more … serious, but you aren’t into a big, bulky set of over-ear headphones, then you owe it to yourself to look into V-Moda’s latest, the V-Moda XS on-ear headphone.

On-ear headphones are naturally less cumbersome than a full-sized set of cans, but the V-Moda XS are especially light and compact. In fact, they are one of the most portable pair of on-ears we’ve ever tested. Don’t let the small size fool you, though. The XS are capable of some seriously dynamic, punchy sound with luscious midrange and highly detailed treble – a real high-end find.

Superior comfort is one of the XS’ most admirable attributes. You can expect to put them on and forget your wearing them in minutes. We’ve worn them for 5 hours straight and never felt the urge to take them off.

Priced at $200, the V-Moda XS are an unreal value. Pick a pair up and you’ll see what we mean.

Spoiler alert: There's a lot of protein

Chicken breast and broccoli

Whether you're a fan of mixed martial arts (MMA) or just curious about the behind-the-scenes routines of professional fighters, you might be wondering how UFC champions "Suga" Sean O'Malley and Aljamain "Funkmaster" Sterling get ready for fight week.

One slightly controversial part of their prep is cutting weight up to the fight. Weight cutting is a common practice in most combat sports and refers to dropping weight before a competition to compete in a specific weight class.

Shohei Ohtani all but gone, MLB franchise LA Angels may also lose Mike Trout: Report

Our GM hopes they both move to Chavez Ravine to play for The Dodgers

The Los Angeles Angels may be on their way to a major team overhaul. Shohei Ohtani, who is one of the best and most innovative two-way players in the history of baseball, has already made it clear that he wants to leave the team, and now, news has broken suggested that Mike Trout, the team's other major star, could also be on his way out the door. Needless to say, losing both of their major stars could have an enormous impact on what the Angels look like moving forward.
Shohei Ohtani is almost definitely leaving
At the end of this season, during which Ohtani has been riddled with injuries, the phenom will be a free agent, and those closest to the league suggest that he's likely to sign with another team. Everyone from the Los Angeles Dodgers to the New York Mets is expected to pursue him this off-season for understandable reasons, and Ohtani has previously made it clear that he's not necessarily thrilled with the way this season has gone for the Angels, who are set to miss the playoffs completely.

Ohtani has yet to formalize any sort of deal with another team, but the question seems to be more about where he'll end up than whether he'll stay with the Angels. The team did choose to hold onto him past the trade deadline, a move they say they don't regret, so it's still possible that the two sides find some way to come to an agreement. In all likelihood, though, Ohtani's time with the Angels is done, and he'll be in a new uniform when the next season starts.
