When David Modell died in early 2017, Nestor reached to many of the Super Bowl XXXV heroes and early Ravens players to discuss the Modell family and coming to Baltimore to built a legacy. Tony Siragusa discussed a magical time in sports history in our city and left poignant words behind. We mourn his death here at WNST Baltimore Positive.
It has been two decades since Nestor took Tony Siragusa to The Barn for some crabs. Let Goose tell you about what he did in the locker room before the big win on January 28, 2001.
As the the torrid 2019 Baltimore Ravens were headed into the playoffs, Nestor reached to legendary defensive tackle Tony Siragusa to inquire about how he’d try to wrap up the fleet Lamar Jackson. As usual, part comedy and part science ensued with The Goose.
There wasn’t much to recommend signing with the fledgling purple birds of Art Modell in the crowded AFC Central but The Goose saw potential in Ray Lewis and leadership in Ted Marchibroda.
With an outspoken personality and a 340-pound frame that made him larger than life, “Goose” helped anchor one of the greatest defenses in NFL history.
While the 2000 Baltimore Ravens will always receive credit from fans and foes alike for being the team that allowed the fewest points in NFL history – and punctuated that task with a defensive unit shutout in Super Bowl XXXV – only four men can properly put into perspective the pain, the growth and the joy of a group that ultimately captured greatness.
The 26-year-old was preparing for his fourth NFL season and had taken part in last week’s minicamp.
