Baltimore Positive

They didn’t look like mafia to us? After Mark Andrews dropped the ball, many fans lowered the floor with insults and threats toward the Baltimore Ravens tight end on social media. These two Canisius students saw it from their Buffalo campus on Monday morning and started a Go Fund Me page on their Instagram fan page to support Andews’ charity work for Breakthrough TD1, which has now collected well over $100,000 in donations. Meet Ryan Patota and Nick Howard, two of the good ones who make us wanna “shout” for the Bills – and give to the cause.

Does King Henry have a season or two left in him?

The praise for the offense of the Baltimore Ravens is universal but they’re still not playing football into late January.

Stroud in chasing Super Bowl rings and why Derrick Henry is still the key to the short-term future and the local possibilities of another purple parade.

Saying “so long” to Santander as Tony Taters takes Toronto dough

Baltimore Positive

He hit a lot of home runs, was a great clubhouse presence and came through the hard times as a Baltimore Orioles rising star and now he’ll be looking to beat them with the Toronto Blue Jays.

Nestor Aparicio

What does it say that Nestor Aparicio has been professionally bullied, gaslit and banned by Orioles and Ravens ownership after four decades of covering Baltimore sports as a professional reporter, author and journalist? Plenty. About billionaires, money, fealty and the death of local sports journalism and the emergence of team websites as monopoly “news” sources. Read and learn…

Making sense of Trump’s America

Baltimore Positive

It’s been a while since our government policy expert Matt Gallagher of The Goldseker Foundation has joined us at Faidley’s but with another Trump government and a stocked cabinet of completely unqualified humans about to run the United States of America, it was time for Nestor to try to attempt to make sense of nonsense reality.

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.

The long road to losing for eternally hopefully Buffalo Bills fans

Baltimore Positive

The first time Nestor Aparicio attended an NFL game in Buffalo with Mike Ricigliano in the late 1980s, he met then-Buffalo Bisons baseball general manager Mike Billoni at the Anchor Bar for wings and pizza and heard the enthusiasm for Jim Kelly and The K Gun offense. All these years later, the Bills still haven’t given their hometown a Super Bowl parade but these Buffalonians are sure that Josh Allen is going to be the one that delivers. First up: King Henry and Lamar on Sunday night in Orchard Park.

When Bills expectations were lowered, Allen raised his game

Baltimore Positive

In an offseason of change and what felt like attrition, the Buffalo Bills were expected to be a diminished team but quarterback Josh Allen has raised his game toward an MVP crown and a home matchup with Lamar Jackson on Sunday night in the AFC Divisional Playoff.
