Cabrera already with terrible base-running and poor fielding in consecutive half innings.
Metallica – Bleeding Me
httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_LpV9o5jGmg
Around the end of my junior year, things started to get set in motion for where I would end up musically. It started, like with a lot of people, with Metallica (the Sam Adams of the metal world, although the comparison breaks down in that Sam Adams continues to make solid, if unspectacular beer while Metallica does not do that anymore.) I started with Re-Load, however, so its a wonder I kept up with it. At the same time, when I was 16 I started working at the Dairy Queen in Somerset, WI. One of my co-workers was pretty obsessed with all things Metallica, so by the time I got to Re-Load I was ready to pick up some earlier stuff from them. Master of Puppets and Ride the Lightning got a lot of play from high school senior me. It all set up the stage for college and a lot of bandwidth to discover what I liked and dig deeply into it.
Father Knows Best: Youth Baseball
Most of my experience with youth baseball can probably be applied to other sports, but all my boys have ever played has been baseball or softball, so I'll just stick to that. Junior has expressed and a little talent in cross country and has even participated in a Running Club at school, but I wasn't involved in that, so I'll just stick to baseball and softball.

Korn – Freak on a Leash
httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=33amAddghUM
This..... was where things started to go a bit wrong, around my junior year I had a car with a stereo that was tuned to 93X and that's it. Probably similar to most teenage boys, I apparently had both angst going on and no desire to try to figure out what I liked. (93X was like, so cool, man.) So, I got into the Nu-metal bands, going so far as to attending a concert headlined by Korn and the following band after the jump.
