The eleventh day of the Maryland Crab Cake Tour presented by The Maryland Lottery, Goodwill, Window Nation and the Restaurant Association of Maryland featured a legit Baltimore City day with lunchtime show at L.P. Steamers on Fort Avenue in Locust Point with some great guests and a nightcap beer with Orioles baseball and Ravens preseason football at Full Tilt in Govans.
Sure, we love soccer but the "bring your business to Qatar" ads on Fox television during the World Cup games aren't convincing Bill Cole and Nestor that this is anything other than the bags of billions of corrupt dollars that it so apparently appears to be this month. The blotter on Blatter and the FIFA criminals has now produced a tournament in the middle of winter in a liar's lair.
Maryland Lottery and Gaming Director John Martin and Nestor welcome Maryland to the world of mobile sports wagering and tell the story of how it happened.
Aaron Tomarchio of Tradepoint Atlantic joins Nestor and John Allen to discuss the Dundalk work history of Bethlehem Steel and the future and jobs coming tomorrow at the new 'Point.

Our chief digital doctor Mike Rosenfeld of Web Connection joins Nestor in a discussion of how it felt in the ballot box back on Tuesday as new laws replace old belief systems in America. It only occurs when our votes change our municipalities and country.
How did a guy from Dundalk have a bowling alley next to a restaurant that has become an OTB and now a sports wagering facility in Hampstead? Let David Richardson of Greenmount Bowl and Chris Richards of Greenmount Station tell you about the new betPARX sports wagering option in Carroll County.
We have been doing Purple Live shows and eating delicious crab cakes with Chris Richards in Hampstead for nearly two decades. The OTB and horse racing partnership came several years ago and now the betPARX wagering kiosks are ready for your sports action in Carroll County.
In an industry that has been famously and dangerously slow to change, the future of the Maryland Jockey Club, Preakness, Pimlico and Laurel is about to change dramtically and forever. Nestor had a lot of questions – and historical perspective – for David Richardson and Alan Foreman, who try to answer all of the mystery surrounding the Stronach family, the local tracks and the future of the second crown of horse racing's Triple Crown at Old Hilltop in Baltimore.
Our old NFL draftnik and historian Dennis Koulatsos joins Nestor for an annual evaluation of the Ravens' draft class and needs heading into the spring.
The big bat of Gunnar Henderson, a solid effort by Grayson Rodriguez and a booted ball by Anthony Volpe added up to an Orioles victory to begin the Yankees series with a 2-0 win. Luke Jones and Nestor discuss the week ahead and the possibility of adding John Means and Kyle Bradish back into the rotation.
Of course we know the Baltimore Ravens don't have to play this weekend. But what if they did? Luke Jones and Nestor assess the spring additions and subtractions and how the Ravens' draft picks will find playing time and opportunities in camp.
You'll laugh. You'll cry. You'll learn. Watch "No One Listens; Everyone Hears" – The Story of Baltimore Positive, Nestor Aparicio & WNST" here.

Nestor and his family and partners would like to thank every one of you for four decades of support of WNST, our sponsors and advertisers who allow us to do this Baltimore Positive thing.
It's been a long time since we've anticipated an April home series like this one.

Luke Jones and Nestor discuss how the Birds will regroup for four games with the Yankees in a budding AL East rivalry.
