We’re just getting started with a new baseball season but already the pitch clock, lack of shifts and the running game of the Baltimore Orioles has Luke Jones pondering all of the changes for Opening Week and the hopes of the Birds of summer.
Spending a March evening in State College waiting on Bruce Springsteen and watching Nittany Lions fans prepare for basketball March Madness, Nestor noticed the wrestling thing and asked the longtime basketball color voice of Happy Valley Dick Jerardi to explain “We Are” and talk Big 10 basketball, Bob Baffert and Kentucky Derby hopefuls.
Our rock and roll soul from Portland, Oregon talks the new rules of baseball, the summer hopes of the Baltimore Orioles and why tribute bands matter in the modern music scene.
Luke Jones and Nestor get you ready to watch the Terps and Mountaineers with the WNST Baltimore Positive community on Thursday at Hollywood Barstool Sports Restaurant in Perryville. Let’s make West Virginia fear the turtle.
Kate Airey of The Maryland Lottery talks about 50 years of games and colors and bringing those old “Wishbone” memories back to life with Nestor
Our financial insider Leonard Raskin joins Nestor to discuss memories of The Bullies of Baltimore and going to The Big Game – just once, or maybe twice?
John Martin of Maryland Lottery tells Nestor how far we’ve come since last year’s Super Bowl on sports wagering in our state and how we got to bring “Las Vegas” for The Big Game to the palm of your hand for the first time this week.
How committed is Nestor Aparicio to covering the Baltimore Ravens as a lifelong journalist? He left BWI during the plague traveling to Houston along with just one other local journalist to cover a game before there was a vaccine in vacant NRG Stadium. Read his #ColumnNes report back from when “The Knee” was a thing that got NFL players blackballed and football was the only thing open for business during a worldwide pandemic.
This is my story. This is the truth. And it must be told. In its entirety because it’s so outrageous as to be almost unbelievable. Covering the Ravens is all I’ve ever done professionally since the team arrived in Baltimore in 1996, and this is how I feed my family and pay my bills as a small local business and AM 1570 radio operator and entrepreneur.
The best is yet to come and won’t it be great?
Sam Sessa and Jimi Haha tell Nestor about bringing the kids together in Annapolis on to see Jimmie’s Chicken Shack and recount the story of the first concert of their childhood. Who loves Styx and Black Sabbath?
Center Tyler Linderbaum played more snaps than any other Baltimore rookie this season.
If Lamar Jackson regrets the statement to the fellow in Pennsylvania, he should’ve offered an apology to him. If he regrets the world seeing his ugly words, Jackson has a platform with a million followers and could’ve offered an apology. If it was truly “out of character,” then show your character and admit a mistake and move on.
Quintin Dailey of Planet Fitness gets Nestor motivated for a new year of health and wellness locally with a frank talk about the ways and whys to get started.
Paul Dehner of The Athletic tells Nestor how Joe Burrow has changed the reality and expectations for long-starved sports fans in Cincinnati. A Super Bowl will do that…
After doing bustrips and roadtrips for a quarter of a century to playoff games all over the country and taking tens of thousands of our citizens along, I really wondered if there’s anyone who wants to get on the bus to Cincinnati this weekend believing the Ravens will still be in the tournament at midnight on Sunday night?
“It’s going to be a good, ‘Come to Jesus,’ this week.”
“It’s going to be a good, ‘Come to Jesus,’ this week.”
One thing that won’t happen in Cincinnati next weekend is the elimination of the Baltimore Ravens. The purple ticket to the tournament has been punched.
When there are only two legitimate reporters waiting to ask you questions after you lose to the Browns on the road with a foolish offensive game plan, does it really matter what you say to (or about) the fans at the end of the bar?
Luke Jones and Nestor try to find reasons to be optimistic after a dreadful loss to the Browns on Saturday night. And here come the Atlanta Falcons on Christmas Eve.
When Tommy Shaw starts the “Oh, mama” refrain of “Renegade,” it usually provides a spark of life for the black and gold faithful that spills from the stands and Terrible Towels onto the grass. The Steelers even exhumed Wiz Whalifa to sing that horrific song at halftime – and it still didn’t matter!
No, it’s not a time for sweeping narratives but the story of the Baltimore Ravens right now is uncertainty and the path to win the division actually going through the division over the next month in a unique scheduling model that was thought to be a benefit until it’s actually Pittsburgh Week and you don’t know who your quarterback is going to be until you see an MRI.
“We shouldn’t have lost,” quarterback Lamar Jackson said as he exited the podium after the crushing 28-27 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars that ended a four-game winning streak and opened a bunch of old wounds about the offense not being good enough and the defense not being able to hold a fourth quarter lead.
In a wide-ranging chat about life in the big leagues, Mike Bordick is joined by Adam and Frank Kolarek in telling Nestor about the impact new rules and a pitch clock are about to have on the game of baseball and how we view the game will change in 2023.
As the 7-3 Baltimore Ravens build confidence on defense, it’s the missing offense that worries Nestor Aparicio as the schedule allows for duds to be wins.
This is Chapter 21 and final of “Purple Reign 2: Faith, Family & Football – A Baltimore Love Story.” Nestor Aparicio has released the 2013 book here over recent weeks to prepare #RavensFlock for NFL season. This is the biggest parade in the history of Baltimore.
Perhaps in our haste to throw it all away, we’ve lost sight of the fact that the entire operation has been assembled to run around – and with – No. 8 and still does that better than anyone when they’re doing it the right way.
This is Chapter 20 of “Purple Reign 2: Faith, Family & Football – A Baltimore Love Story.” Author and radio host and entrepreneur Nestor Aparicio is releasing the 2013 book chapter by chapter daily to celebrate the 10th Anniversary of the Ravens Super Bowl win in New Orleans.
Former sports radio insider Bernard Bokenyi and “Nasty Nationwide” producer checks in with Nestor after returning to his homeland in Cleveland. There was once hope and then owner Jimmy Haslam went all in on Deshaun Watson. Could it actually get worse?
When Lamar Jackson plays poorly – and most of Sunday was another poor effort throwing the ball where he actually wanted to throw it, especially the long ball – the Baltimore Ravens are going to have a whole lot of trouble trying to finish football games against competent competition.
Our financial guru Leonard Raskin joins Nestor to discuss the real value of Justin Tucker (and that kind of insurance) and Ravens wins and losses.
After a generation of Baltimore vs. Pittsburgh, it certainly feels like Sunday night’s slog with the Bengals for first place has moved the needle on the other rivalry for supremacy in the AFC North.
Welcome to October. The high-ceiling Baltimore Ravens are suddenly a troubling 2-2 and the defending AFC champions are coming to town for Sunday Night Football. And head coach John Harbaugh is under siege from the Baltimore fan base.
But don’t bury the lead in this one: Lamar Jackson (still) might be the best player in the National Football League and his “value” as a Most Valuable Player continues to soar as he does things no one has ever done at the most valuable position on the field and the most difficult position to play in all of sports.
In the postgame, John Harbaugh had no answers for the rarest of rarities in his 15 seasons coaching the Ravens – a historic loss that required lots of bad calls, bad plays, bad decisions and poor football that turned a 35-14 walkover into a stunning 42-38 loss.
The ninth day of the Maryland Crab Cake Tour presented by The Maryland Lottery, Goodwill, Window Nation and the Restaurant Association of Maryland featured a morning drive around Deep Creek Lake and an adventure north through the rolling hills of Pennsylvania past Ohiopyle, Falling Water and on to bucolic Latrobe to watch the Pittsburgh Steelers participate in one of the final old-school training camp days still remaining in the NFL.
The eighth day of the Maryland Crab Cake Tour presented by The Maryland Lottery, Goodwill, Window Nation and the Restaurant Association of Maryland featured a crystal clear morning at Deep Creek Lake and an adventure into West Virginia searching for the highest point in Maryland. Beer and cheer at Mountain State and a tasty bar crab cake at crowded Ace’s Run on the lake.
The seventh day of the Maryland Crab Cake Tour presented by The Maryland Lottery, Goodwill, Window Nation and the Restaurant Association of Maryland featured a beautiful morning and incredible spread from chef Dustin Coldsmith at Rocky Gap Casino and the Lakeside Grille. Just a stunning spot in our incredible state! You need to get to this place. We ventured west and managed to hit two Cumberland taps before finding Deep Creek Lake.
