Metallica 'Looking for Work' After Yankees Pitcher Retires Their Theme Song (VIDEO)

Exit Sandman?

New York Yankees pitcher Mariano Rivera famously used Metallica’s ominous “Enter Sandman” whenever he stepped up to the mound, and now that he’s retired, it looks like the band doesn’t have much to do, at least according to this SportsCenter promo.

“The guys don’t have much to do around here,” anchor Jay Harris says of a dispirited-looking Metallica singer/guitarist James Hetfield and drummer Lars Ulrich, who sit at a cubicle wearily shopping around theme songs for other people, including a befuddled John Daly, who wants to make sure the group knows they’re trying to sell thrash metal to a pro golfer.

In the end, lead guitarist Kirk Hammett is seen peddling guitar lessons in the ESPN break room. “First lesson’s free!” he calls after an uninterested-looking Stuart Scott, who’s just used one of the pull-off tabs from Hammett’s ad to dispose of his gum.
