    St. Louis Cardinals

     

    Albert Pujols - Unless he gets hit by a cement mixer tomorrow, he's getting in when all is said and done.

     

    Tony La Russa - Pretty much a lock.

     

    uh...Yadier Molina someday? Nah.

     

     

    I guess I'll do the Rams.

     

    Torry Holt - Possibly. Might take a while, but he's got a good chance.

     

    Orlando Pace - If he could stay healthy and collect a few more Pro Bowls and All-Pros, maybe.

     

    Yeah, not seeing anyone else. Slim pickings in St. Louis.

    But Mars! Praised be the god of war and the confections that bear his name! The 3 Musketeers/Milky Way/Snickers pyramid has never let me down. Skittles and Starburst are never disappointing. I hate M&Ms, but that's like begrudging a crappy song on the white album: there are so many other good ones that you can allow for a misfire or two. There are so many great varieties of Starburst, Skittles, and Twix. All great. Mars gets my vote.

    I agree with pretty much all of this, except I dislike Snickers. I don't mind the peanuts, but the whole thing just seems off.

    So yeah, I decided to listen to a bunch of stuff mentioned in the metal thread. A few random thoughts below.

     

    Dissection Storm of the Light's Bane - I believe I talked about this in another thread. Really like this one. I will say that the drumming felt a bit off at some points. I don't know. Still pretty great.

     

    Origin Antithesis - Brutal. My favorite song is definitely "Wrath of Vizhnu". Those drums are insane.

     

    At the Gates Slaughter of the Soul - I feel like I sort of missed the boat on this one. It's like I had already heard it a bunch of times before, due to other bands basically ripping it off. Still, "Blinded by Fear" is really good, and there's a little bit in the guitar solo in "Cold" that I just love for some reason. Like a little muddled part that's probably my favorite part of the whole album.

     

    Bolt Thrower Warmaster The Warhammer cover art is kind of hilarious, but the music is just good metal fun.

     

    Carcass Heartwork - Kind of have the same feeling as I did with Slaughter. I kept thinking of like, Children of Bodom and the like. I think I liked this a little better, though.

     

    Cryptopsy None So Vile - Jesus. I'm just not sure I can brook those vocals. I'll give it a few more listens to see if I can get used to it, but yeesh.

     

    Electric Wizard Dopesmoker - Honestly, I'm not sure I'm really into the whole doom metal thing. I guess I got like music ADD when it comes to bands like these or Opeth or pretty much any song that's over say...8 minutes long. Is it because I don't smoke Marijuana? Would that help? I don't know.

     

    Nile Annihilation of the Wicked - I'll agree with what Milky said regarding this band and say my favorite track is definitely "Lashed to the Slave Stick". Highly enjoyable overall.
