The civic victory in finally hosting an AFC Championship Game

WNST STORY OF GLORY No. 8: The day we turned WNST back on and Shannon Sharpe made the Ravens a real franchise

Nestor Aparicio

WNST-AM 1570 was originally leased by Nestor Aparicio from May 1998 through October 1999 and he had to bid farewell on the airwaves before being syndicated by One On One Sports and Sporting News Radio out of Chicago to return back to the local airwaves in September 2000 the same weekend the Ravens caught fire as a franchise against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

WNST STORY OF GLORY No. 9: The power of the WNST Text Service to break and deliver sports news

Nestor Aparicio

The founder of WNST is an old news hound who was trained by the best in the business in the 1980s at The News American and The Baltimore Sun. When the internet became a thing at the turn of the century and texting quickly became ubiquitous, Nestor Aparicio asked his listeners to join the WNST Text Service sponsored by Koons Ford of Security Blvd. No spam! Ever. It’s been over 18 years since we launched the most trusted source for breaking sports news in Baltimore. What was the big news that you heard first and where were you when you received the text? (And ask Nestor about the time he purposely launched one in the cafeteria at the Ravens’ Liars Luncheon with NFL schedule news to watch everyone in the room reach for their phones!)

WNST STORY OF GLORY No. 10: Our 10th Anniversary celebration at Sports Legends Museum

Nestor Aparicio

They said we’d never make it at WNST so when our 10th Anniversary on the Baltimore airwaves at AM 1570 also launched the all-new WNST.net on the internet, we took a chance to invite everyone downtown for a night of food, fans and good cheer to celebrate a decade of locally owned and operated sports radio in the Charm City. If you have any pictures of our night at Sports Legends Museum – there were a ton of celebrities and old-school listeners and friends in one place – we’d love to see and share them: nes@baltimorepositive.com

Wiping clean the lens on why those cameras were so wet and cloudy

#ColumnNes Now, it’s time to win a Super Bowl

The Baltimore Ravens have never played an AFC Championship Game at home. This is the year to change that. Anything less than winning the Super Bowl in Las Vegas on February 11th will be unacceptable.

WNST STORY OF GLORY No. 11: The legacy of “The Nasty Nice Guy Awards” two decades later

Nestor Aparicio

Back in 1996, Nestor was working with the Ed Block Courage Awards to raise money and awareness and dreamed up a Baltimore banquet that would bring together all of the local professional sports teams to honor the good people who play the games. The Nasty Nice Guy Awards hosted exclusively at Michael’s Eighth Avenue in Glen Burnie lasted eight years and raised over $150,000 for local charities. The late, great Bobby Nyk played the tunes and we partied for a purpose with a lot of very recognizable faces. Elrod Hendricks represented the Baltimore Orioles every year so you know it was the place to be! Ask anyone who attended these incredible nights about their pictures with Cal Ripken, Ray Lewis, Art Donovan, Mike Flanagan, Jon Ogden, Gov. William Donald Schaefer, Brian Billick, Fang Mitchell and so many others.

WNST STORY OF GLORY No. 12: The legend of the first great tailgate in San Diego

Baltimore Positive

It sounds like heresy but last century, “tailgating” was illegal in Baltimore. (You kids can look it up!) In 1996, when the Ravens came to the Charm City, David Modell set out to change those laws and in 1997 when the first purple trip San Diego took 200 “Nasty Nestor” listeners to Jack Murphy Stadium, we met some Chargers fans in the parking lot and made some memories. There were many, many roadtrips and more beer, sandwiches and fried chicken consumed along many highways with Gunther buses but this virgin voyage in a town that the NFL has now forgotten was truly unforgettable.

WNST STORY OF GLORY No. 14: The power of the Fu Five Flacco Fighters

Baltimore Positive

Sometime around Halloween of the 2011 season, Joe Flacco and Dennis Pitta started growing Fu Manchus as a bit of an inside joke to annoy their wives. Nestor approached him after another Ravens victory and a thing happened around Baltimore. Admit it, you probably have a funny picture somewhere on your timeline. One more reason to love Joe Flacco.

Is Lamar on the path to the Pro Football Hall of Fame?

Baltimore Positive

Purple Reign 2: Chapter 8 “Just a regular Joe”

You’ll learn a lot about what makes Joe Cool so cool.

Maryland, medicine and measuring up against other states

Baltimore Positive

We always learn when she returns…

The marvel of Lamar Jackson and awaiting the winners

Baltimore Positive

The reality of the Pittsburgh Steelers game is that many of the starters will have to play four quarters. Dennis Koulatsos joins Nestor to make the argument that maybe that isn’t such a bad thing. As long as No. 8 is ready to go in two weeks, the Ravens can win a Super Bowl.

WNST STORY OF GLORY No. 15 – The night Deion Sanders made Parkville “Primetime” with Ravens fans

Nestor Aparicio

We’re still in the process of trying to recover the actual two-hour interview from Putty Hill Station in November 2004, but we remember this is the night that “Prime” rolled into Parkville with then-backup quarterback Kordell “Slash” Stewart (one-time star of the Pittsburgh Steelers) to make it a Hall of Fame evening for Ravens fans. We’ll find the tape. Soon. We hope…

WNST STORY OF GLORY No. 16 – The epic Pittsburgh Purple Pep Rallies and Parties

Nestor Aparicio

Nestor remembers the Pittsburgh hotel manager howling when the Baltimore AM sports radio wackjob guy told her he was gonna bring a thousand people in purple to her fancy corporate wedding ballroom for four hours to drink beer and prepare to eliminate the Steelers from the AFC Championship Game. The game didn’t go well in 2009 or 2011 but we threw a helluva party up there with ‘yins. Our WNST Roadtrips could affect everything but the outcome for #RavensFlock.

A New Year, a new career?

Baltimore Positive

Yvette Diamond tells Nestor about the new Maryland Apprenticeship Connector and ways local employers are partnering

WNST STORY OF GLORY No. 17 – That crazy playoff night in Nashville with Steve McNair and Ravens fans for charity

Nestor Aparicio

If you ever bump into Nestor and want one of the wilder stories of his journey, ask him about the night he did a charity event with Steve McNair in Nashville. We took several busloads and planeloads of Ravens fans to Nashville several times. The 2001 playoff party was legendary but it was in January 2009 when the former Oilers, Titans and Ravens quarterback came to Limelight to greet a sea of purple. And then we threw a party. The videos tell the story better than we ever could. Especially that poor taxi driver…

Pondering a Festivus for the rest of us – even Joe Flacco

WNST STORY OF GLORY No. 18 – Our Give A Spit 30 MLB Ballparks in 30 Days Marathon

Nestor Aparicio

Even though this is further down the list, it might be the greatest thing we’ve ever done. When Jennifer Ford Aparicio was diagnosed with leukemia in March 2014 and survived that summer watching baseball, Nestor was inspired to live out a dream and make it matter. And the 30-30 MLB Give A Spit Tour was born. In June and July of 2015, the couple swabbed for the bone marrow registry in 18 ballparks, swabbing thousands of baseball fans over 30 days and even made it Cooperstown. No rainouts, one passport forgotten, many celebrities and wonderful friends we visited and made along the way on behalf of There Goes My Hero.

The Christmas night when the Baltimore Ravens became Super Bowl favorites

WNST STORY OF GLORY No. 20 – The legacy of the Baltimore Colts and Indianapolis

Nestor Aparicio

It’s complicated – and always will be, the Colts thing in Baltimore for anyone who was alive in 1984. Over a quarter of a century it’s never been ignored but back in 2011 at the Indianapolis Super Bowl, Nestor finally put down the sword and the horseshoe for his mental health writing a letter to the citizens of Indiana that got nearly a million views during Radio Row week. But it didn’t come without raising a whole lotta hell for a quarter of a century.
