Darting off to the swamps of Jersey: What we think of John Harbaugh heading to make Giants stand tall again

Baltimore Positive

Big Blue was always the expected destination for John Harbaugh and he quickly took the first seat in a wild round of NFL head coach hiring that began with the New York Giants looking to fumigate the Meadowlands and get quarterback Jackson Dart championship ready. Luke Jones and Nestor discuss the Broadway lights and the big job – and $100 million expectations – that will come in The Big Apple for Harbs.

Did he make the grade? The official Steve Bisciotti Press Conference Report Card is here…

Nestor Aparicio

Since the Baltimore Ravens owner provided his “report card” on some of his favorite media members at Tuesday’s press conference – and let’s be honest, we all know I didn’t make the “professional” grade cut because I bring tough questions and uncomfortable truths – I’ve decided to provide my inaugural (if he comes back every year) “Steve Bisciotti Press Conference Report Card.” Because people keep asking me what I think in addition to asking why no one reads anything anymore at The Sun behind a paywall.

Being “checked out” as Ravens owner but still calling the Big Shots

Baltimore Positive

It was a rapid-fire hour of stream of consciousness for the media-reluctant Baltimore Ravens owner Steve Bisciotti, who hasn’t appeared in eight years for any local questioning about his $6 billion franchise. Our Luke Jones was in Owings Mills while Nestor observed the press conference on the internet and here’s what we learned, observed and heard from upper management regarding the search for a new head coach and the role of two-time MVP quarterback Lamar Jackson in helping Eric DeCosta identify the right candidate to replace John Harbaugh.

Here are 25 fair questions for Ravens owner Steve Bisciotti

Baltimore Positive

There will be plenty of questions about Lamar Jackson and John Harbaugh and the mystery of the next head coach of the Baltimore Ravens. But, while owner Steve Bisciotti seems interested in facing the fans for the first time in eight years, we have some deeper questions about the franchise, brand and community face of the NFL and its local monolith.

What comes next for Bisciotti and DeCosta in job search?

Baltimore Positive

While we’re all watching NFL playoff football, the Baltimore Ravens are on their first head coaching job search in 18 years. Luke Jones and Nestor discuss the games on the field and the field of coaches that Steve Bisciotti and Eric DeCosta will be sifting through on video calls all week and the criteria and desires for a job that is considered the best in the league.

Any list of questions for Bisciotti should begin with Tucker – and anything else we’ve missed since Lamar was drafted

Baltimore Positive

Do you have your own “Dear Steve Bisciotti” list of questions? We do. And we will, as Luke Jones will be in The Castle on Tuesday afternoon as the Baltimore Ravens owner and general manager Eric DeCosta will address (some of) the local media and take some questions about the search for a new coach after the firing of John Harbaugh this week. Plenty of depth here about the culture of the building in Owings Mills and the future leadership of the football operation.

The changing games through the years and betting on the future

Baltimore Positive

After the Ravens’ sudden elimination and the end of another season, we all need the comfort of old friends. It’s a bit of ‘Friends and Family’ week as Nestor welcomes longtime media cohort and two-decade WNST hockey insider Ed Frankovic back for a 2026 sports reset as Ovechkin remains on the ice, the Ravens search for a head coach and the Orioles try to get baseball fans like us back to Camden Yards. Oh, and “Why does Nestor deserve a press pass?”

Bisciotti

Picking the “next Hall of Fame coach” becomes front and center for re-emerging Bisciotti

Baltimore Positive

The Baltimore Ravens and owner Steve Bisciotti are not lacking qualified candidates to be the next coach in Owings Mills. Luke Jones and Nestor assess the wide array of options he and Eric DeCosta will have in a rare opportunity for the brain trust to drain the brains of the brightest coaches and coordinators in the NFL in the coming weeks to gather valuable information.

Bisciotti

The sudden end and aftermath of the Bisciotti Harbaugh divorce in Owings Mills

Baltimore Positive

It all happened so suddenly on Tuesday that we needed some time to fully digest the first coaching change since Luke Jones joined our Baltimore Ravens beat in 2009. He joins Nestor to discuss all of the Owings Mills drama in the John Harbaugh firing fallout and who owner Steve Bisciotti will hire as next the head coach of the franchise.

Going for the Keno gold

Baltimore Positive

With lots of New Year promotions in place, plus some words of wisdom about postseason NFL sports wagering, Maryland Lottery Executive Director John Martin returns to kick off 2026 with some big winners and fun chances to get in on the game.

“The High Standards and Low Profile of Steve Bisciotti”

Nestor Aparicio

We know, we know. We’ve been coming in strong with legitimate, probing questions for billionaire NFL owner Steve Bisciotti in the aftermath of the firing of John Harbaugh this week. Want some shameful praise for him, instead? This a complete profile of the Baltimore Ravens owner as written by Nestor Aparicio in 2013 as Chapter 2 of “#PurpleReign2: Faith, Family & Football – A Baltimore Love Story” that speaks to his glory! If you want to learn about Bisciotti’s legend and history with picking a head coach, you’ll want to read this…

Dear Steve Bisciotti: Ask Chad Steele what he thinks I said about Sage so I can tell Ravens fans why I was really exterminated

Nestor Aparicio

“What did do you do wrong, Nestor?” “Why would the Ravens throw you out?” “Why are you the only one in the local media whom they’ve thrown out?” “Why have they treated you this way?” “WHAT DID YOU DO WRONG!?!” I am fed up with these questions from Baltimore sports fans so I wrote to the owner because these questions are his to answer. Letters to John Harbaugh and Eric DeCosta are also coming soon.

Where is Steve Bisciotti hiding and when will he appear?

Baltimore Positive

With the miserable exit of the Baltimore Ravens season on Sunday night in Pittsburgh, this is the week the franchise will address any major changes in leadership, coaching and a stated direction for the fan base (if they care about such things). Other NFL owners are speaking with local media around the league. Luke Jones and Nestor discuss the offseason mess left behind from a wildly disappointing season and the clear need for owner Steve Bisciotti to come forward after eight years of neglecting to answer questions about his $5 billion franchise.

Frederick teachers get schooled on cashing in on the Power of a Holiday Bonus

Baltimore Positive

It’s not often that 14 winners surprise the folks at the Maryland Lottery with such a fun holiday tale of pooling and Powerballing their way to a $50,000 pay day on the recent $1.8 billion jackpot. Seth Elkin of Maryland Lottery talks winning and spirited group of Frederick teachers getting schooled on cashing in for the New Year.

Leibovich: On the swamp and racket of The Big Game and bad government

Baltimore Positive

“It’s the best book ever written about the modern National Football League,” so says Nestor about Big Game. And that’s why we love having its author Mark Leibovich back on when his New England Patriots proudly return to Baltimore for some playoff knockout style football. Now with The Atlantic, the longtime political insider for The New York Times is also heavily immersed in Trumplandia and weighs in on the ongoing Epstein saga and the usual D.C. shenanigans.

Here’s why now is the perfect time to get intelligent about AI

Baltimore Positive

At some point, you’ll embrace artificial intelligence because it’s here to stay. In our continuing effort to learn, grow and evolve, Nestor hosts local AI trainer Denis O’Donovan of Profit Comm at the brand new Planet Fitness in Timonium to share the power and purpose of getting involved and learning basic usage now to help efficiency and wisdom.

Watch “No One Listens; Everyone Hears” – The Media Story of Nestor Aparicio, WNST and Baltimore Positive

Nestor Aparicio

Part biography, part civic documentary, this film uncovers the uncompromising journey of Nestor Aparicio—journalist, truth-teller, and founder of Baltimore Positive. Through battles with institutions, personal setbacks, and a stubborn commitment to his hometown, “No One Listens; Everyone Hears” shows what happens when one person refuses to stop believing in Baltimore.

Let’s welcome in happiness and better health in 2026

Baltimore Positive

With the grand opening of the state-of-the-art Planet Fitness on York Road in Timonium, we told our friends Justin Drummond and April Fowler that we’d bring the Maryland Crab Cake Tour by to welcome them into the new year if they’d provide the inspiration and the awesome PF Times Square party hats.

Saving a lost season still possible for Harbaugh and Ravens in Pittsburgh

Baltimore Positive

It’s been quite a slog for everyone involved in the Baltimore Ravens organization in 2025. Leonard Raskin and Nestor take a real assessment of the end of a football season and the beginning of the playoffs and another chance for the men of John Harbaugh to redeem themselves – and their turbulent season – in Pittsburgh.

Fish, family and fastballs at Gertrude’s with Casper Wells

Baltimore Positive

In the spirit of the holiday season, we bring friends and family together. Chesapeake chef extraordinaire and proprietor of Gertrude’s at The BMA John Shields hosts Nestor once again for a Christmas and New Year’s Eve celebration (at an hour we can all appreciate) along with former MLB outfielder Casper Wells for chat about seven fishes, sauerkraut and Pete Alonso.

Hail, hail Halethorpe! A Honey of a spot to shoot pool, watch the game and taste fresh flavor

Baltimore Positive

This stands as a warning to anyone who invites Nestor by their place for the Maryland Crab Cake Tour: you’re an invite and a taste away because he’s en route to meet more great local folks who want to promote their business. Owner Soo Mi Kang of Honey’s in Halethorpe invited us over and must’ve known that offering “Crabby Toast” would invoke the legend of Charles Markwood Eckman. Competitive billiards, great food and the game is always on at this old-school joint on the south side.

Sausage, soccer and suffering local World Cup madness

Baltimore Positive

Bringing the Maryland Crab Cake Tour back to DiPasquale’s for an Italian tour of the holidays, we knew Darren The Sausage King would bring us some seasonal favorites. Nestor explores some East Baltimore holiday flavor in Canton just in time for kielbasa and sauerkraut on the dinner table while talking World Cup fever with Highlandtown soccer legend Pete Caringi.

Finding the history and center of community support at St. Francis in Reservoir Hill

Baltimore Positive

It was years in the making, finally getting Torbin Green of St. Francis Community Center to visit for a Faidley’s crab cake for the holidays. Turns out it’s a busy job serving 20,000 folks in West Baltimore with youth programs, family love and food distribution in West Baltimore. Let him tell you about the pride in the work they do and its impact in the neighborhood over generations.

Adding up The Y and the whole Thanksgiving menu of the Turkey Trot

Baltimore Positive

John Hoey of The Y returns to give Nestor the receipts and warm trail of holiday fun from the 5K Turkey Trot on a chilly Thanksgiving morning that took place all over the community and wound up being featured on the Ravens’ NBC broadcast for the world to see with their pumpkin pie.

If we’re picking between Harbaugh and Lamar? Who stays, who goes? And what does Steve think?

Baltimore Positive

We’re not at the Black Monday stage of the NFL’s open season on hiring and firing but the Baltimore Ravens and owner Steve Bisciotti along with general manager Eric DeCosta might find next week to be the ugliest week of a long and tiring season. Luke Jones and Nestor discuss the latest dust-up in the organization where the head coach has blown a lot of leads and an oft-injured, two-time MVP quarterback will need a contract renegotiation this winter. Is change coming in Owings Mills?

Councilman Conway steps up and into race for Congress

Baltimore Positive

It’s an election season and we’re welcoming plenty of political candidates and sitting elected officials onto the Maryland Crab Cake Tour. Councilman Mark Conway has told us about his challenges and triumphs in the 4th District of Baltimore City and now is focused on running for the current seat of Congressman Kweisi Mfume in the 7th U.S. Congressional District, encompassing large parts of the city and edges of the county.

Communicating and relating publicly the Maroon way

Baltimore Positive

Our annual “two old sports guys” holiday visit with longtime communications pro John Maroon came on turf very familiar to all parties: Costas Inn in Dundalk, where no one was crabby but the ramping up of artificial intelligence in the world of public relations, marketing and advertising was spicy on our tongues on the Maryland Crab Cake Tour. Always changing, always evolving…

This is the big one

Nestor Aparicio

It stands as the fourth largest jackpot in American lottery history and John Martin of The Maryland Lottery gets Nestor ready for almost two billion reasons to have some fun with “the big one” as Powerball powers past $1.7 billion for Christmas. Ho Ho, hope you win!

When all hope starts to fade on a failed season

Baltimore Positive

It all started to fall apart once again as the Baltimore Ravens had another doubit-digit lead evaporate at home for the holidays against the New England Patriots. Leonard Raskin and Nestor lick the purple wounds of a mostly sickening Ravens season and pick up the pieces of parking Derrick Henry while John Harbaugh squirms in the aftermath of another embarrassing loss.

Maxing out on local sports and lousy officiating

Baltimore Positive

Did you know that Tom Davis was once in a movie scene in Baltimore with the legendary Al Pacino? We did and Max Weiss has promised Nestor a full treatment of all memorable local movie history in the next edition of Baltimore Magazine. They continue their holiday chat about bad referees, big money Orioles signings and what’s on the table at Di Pasquale’s in Canton on the Maryland Crab Cake Tour.

Feasting on seven fishes and holiday neighborhood love at Di Pasquale’s

Baltimore Positive

It’s the holidays and time for traditions and trimmings so we ventured back to DiPasquale’s in Canton with former UMBC soccer coach Pete Caringi to ask Domenico DiPasquale about the Christmas tradition of the Feast of The Seven Fishes and bringing family together for good cheer and great food.

City sidewalks dressed in holiday style

Baltimore Positive

It’s always a treat to welcome Matt Gallagher of The Goldseker Foundation back to Faidley’s Seafood at Lexington Market on the Maryland Crab Cake Tour to discuss the progress and challenges of Baltimore City, while shouting out more holiday dining options and civic celebrations than any other podcast or radio show in the market. We love Baltimore – and it shows!

Pete Alonso looked the part and won The Warehouse press conference

Nestor Aparicio

The newest and shiniest Baltimore Orioles addition arrived for a bizarrely timed Friday afternoon press conference at Camden Yards and won the day. Luke Jones and Nestor discuss the Pete Alonso emergence at The Warehouse alongside David Rubenstein, Mike Elias and Scott Boras and what the future holds for the slugger, whom the owner compared to Frank Robinson coming the Charm City.

Shipping them a Faidley’s crab cake for the holidays always makes the spirits bright

Baltimore Positive

Yes, Faidley’s is coming to Catonsville very, very soon in the frontage of The Fishmonger’s Daughter on Frederick Road but before then you can still pay a holiday visit to Lexington Market or ship those tasty crab cakes and all of the sides and trimmings anywhere in the country this week. Let Damye Hahn of Faidley’s Seafood update you for Christmas and beyond with the first family of downtown jumbo lump crab cakes.
