Nestor Aparicio

The addition, subtraction and desperation of 1-4 Baltimore Ravens

Baltimore Positive

The Baltimore Ravens are a 7 1/2 point underdog at home against the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday and the weather forecast seems frightful. Luke Jones and Nestor discuss this week’s injury report, the Odafe Oweh trade and preview Matt Stafford and Puka Nacua visiting a wet and beleaguered Charm City and staying a while.

There’s nothing funny about Mummy Money

Baltimore Positive

As the season gets scarier, The Maryland Lottery is ramping up the Hall-O-Win fun just in time for pumpkin and spice and candy and winning. John Martin of The Maryland Lottery tells Nestor about all of the fall fun ahead as the winners continue to enjoy responsible play and the football season.

The questions continue for the Ravens’ defenseless defense and its leadership

Baltimore Positive

With the season on the brink at 1-4 and the defense getting decimated first by injury and then by opposing quarterbacks and running games, Luke Jones and Nestor discuss the Ravens’ current operation and the job security of Zach Orr and the entire staff. And how will it improve given the current cast of healthy players and injured veterans?

Rightfully holding head coach John Harbaugh accountable for the stench of this Ravens disaster

Baltimore Positive

Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh thinks Nestor “hates” him. Actually, we’re here as local media to hold him responsible as the head coach of the team for the pathetic effort in the aftermath of a 44-10 loss and the embarrassment of the stadium emptying out in the 3rd quarter. Luke Jones and Nestor discuss the horrific showing – on and off the field in recent years – and all roads lead to the top of the organization.

Frowning upon all elements of disturbing Ravens effort against Texans

Baltimore Positive

It was as bad as we’ve ever seen in modern Baltimore football, especially during the John Harbaugh era, but the soul searching that the head coach spoke of in the aftermath of a 44-10 beating at the hands of the Houston Texans leaves many questions about the whole operation. Luke Jones and Nestor discuss the lack of fire and what the options are now that this once-Super Bowl promising season is on the brink. “Too many injuries” is not a valid message.

Now, this is the proper way to eat local “Maryland” catfish

Baltimore Positive

This delicious artisan catfish sandwich won the Governor’s Award this summer and now Damye Hahn of Faidley’s Seafood in Lexington Market is ready to taste test Matt Gallagher of Goldseker Foundation and Nestor at Lexington Market on the Maryland Crab Cake Tour. An invasive Maryland catfish primer and a tasty new local dish are on the menu in Baltimore.

With Lamar sidelined, Texans will come after Cooper Rush on Sunday

Baltimore Positive

What does it mean for the defense of the Houston Texans that Lamar Jackson won’t be under center on Sunday in Baltimore? We asked longtime Texans voice Marc Vandermeer, who gives Nestor a primer on Houston football history and the leadership strengths of DeMeco Ryans and his defense, as Cooper Rush is set to start for the Ravens amidst an unprecedented flurry of injuries to a 1-3 team suddenly battling for relevance.

What is Ravens path to victory with Cooper Rush?

Baltimore Positive

With Lamar Jackson sidelined this week in Owings Mills, it’s time to face the reality of what the Baltimore Ravens offensive potential and pathway to a win over the Houston Texans will be without No. 8 and a huge chunk of the defense. Hard times for #RavensFlock, as Luke Jones and Nestor preview a pair of 1-3 teams fighting for any ugly win available.

The Hispanic reach and Spanish call of Houston Texans international flavor and appeal

Baltimore Positive

Deep in the heart of Texas, the longtime voice of the Houston Texans in espanol tells Nestor about the community engagement in the Hispanic world of American football. Let Enrique Vasquez get you ready for what to expect from C.J. Stroud against a depleted Baltimore Ravens defense on Sunday. (Don’t worry: this one is in English!)

Is this the Texans big chance to finally beat Ravens in Baltimore?

Baltimore Positive

No one is in a rush to see Cooper Rush get behind center but Houston sports media pundit Matt Thomas tells Nestor that the Texans have a lot of experience seeing him throw and Derrick Henry run the ball against them over the years. The Ravens are 8-0 against the horns in Baltimore but lots of injuries for the Ravens presents a big opportunity for C.J. Stroud to excel in a matchup of scuffling playoff hopefuls early in the NFL season.

Pastorini: For the glory of Luv Ya Blue and those Houston Oilers

Baltimore Positive

As the swashbuckling quarterback of the Bum Phillips-era Houston Oilers, Dan Pastorini was Nestor’s favorite football player in his late 1970s childhood. Now, like many former Baltimore Colts here and abandoned by his franchise in Texas, Pastorini catches up on the Oilers uniform revival in Nashville, the pain of the Texans in Houston and how to Be An Angel.

Life as a Texans fan and waiting for Houston to finally kick the door in

Baltimore Positive

It hasn’t been a great year so for the Baltimore Ravens or the fan base. Longtime Houston football fan and Texas attorney Steph Stradley returns in her best Bum Phillips attire to discuss the state of the Texans and how C.J. Stroud could attack a depleted Ravens defense this week.

A bruised purple season on the brink of going sour

Baltimore Positive

This Baltimore Ravens roster held so much promise a month ago. Now, at 1-3 and staring at life without several of the highest paid players on the team, expectations of a Super Bowl seem distant and the next win is the most important one. Leonard Raskin and Nestor dissect the failures and injuries of Ravens as the season turns sour after the 38-20 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs.

Big losses and mounting injuries change the course for Harbaugh and Ravens

Baltimore Positive

None of the news has been encouraging out of Owings Mills. The injuries to Lamar Jackson and Ronnie Stanley on the offense and the decimation of the defensive front with Nnamdi Madubuike gone for the year and Roquan Smith, Marlon Humphrey and Nate Wiggins all early exits in Kansas City, Luke Jones and Nestor discuss the scorecard you’ll need to identify who will play against the Houston Texans on Sunday.

Getting a Houston football primer from The General

Baltimore Positive

There’s no better excuse to have Houston sportswriter legend John McClain back on the show than when the Texans are coming to Baltimore. This time, he educates Nestor on the path of head coach DeMeco Ryans, progress of quarterback C.J. Stroud and provides a little history lesson about the Baltimore Colts roots deep in the heart of Texas.

When the defensive depth chart isn’t deep enough

Baltimore Positive

The entire defensive line of the Baltimore Ravens was ravaged with injury before the game started in Kansas City. Now, with Roquan Smith, Marlon Humphrey and Nate Wiggins added to the injury report, Luke Jones and Nestor discuss the defensive deficiencies and obvious depth concerns amidst mass losses and an atrocious 1-3 start to a season with Super Bowl expectations.

The tweaked hamstring of Lamar Jackson and short rope of a 1-3 start

Baltimore Positive

The purple sky isn’t falling but it sure feels that way after a 37-20 drubbing at the hands of the Kansas City Chiefs. The Baltimore Ravens have begun the season in a huge hole and are now littered with injuries across both sides of the ball. Luke Jones and Nestor discuss all that ails the men of John Harbaugh and the sputtering offense and ravaged defense.

No. 2 TastyNes and 27th Anniversary Tour: Ekiben Broccoli Tempura

Nestor Aparicio

Calling this amazing creation only the “second best” dish in the city is probably heresy but who knew that that a cruciferous vegetable could possibly be this delicious? Go ahead, get the broccoli tempura at any of the three Ekiben locations and tell us it’s not the best thing you’ve ever tasted! And, if you’re really hungry, make sure you get the Neighborhood Bird Bowl, too. Pick up some chopsticks on the way out. (You’re welcome…)

Ravens at Chiefs: Someone is going to be 1-3 on Sunday night

Baltimore Positive

It’s not the heavyweight fight we expected in Kansas City on Sunday as both teams are 1-2 and need to start winning football games.

Finding the bright spots – and concerning realities – in Orioles awful season and last place finish

Baltimore Positive

With the arms of Trevor Rogers and Kyle Bradish seeking to play Yankees spoiler in The Bronx on the final weekend of the season, Luke Jones and Nestor discuss the end of an awful Orioles campaign and look to next year and wonder where the level of optimism for the fan base should be amidst all of the awfulness – on and off the field for David Rubenstein, Michael Arougheti and Catie Griggs. First up: who is Mike Elias going to hire?

Favorite Ravens find a diminished version of Chiefs but is Mahomes the purple kryptonite?

Baltimore Positive

It’s another Lamar Jackson and Patrick Mahomes billed “Game Of The Weekend” in Kansas City but with both teams at 1-2, the stakes and rewards feel different for this early season battle at Arrowhead Stadium. Blair Kerkhoff of The Kansas City Star previews another heavyweight contest and the high stakes for Andy Reid and John Harbaugh, who square off once again as Super Bowl contenders in peril.

When four more adds up

Baltimore Positive

When we saw that the winner got four more than one million dollars, we had questions. Seth Elkin of The Maryland Lottery joins Nestor to discuss some odd winning numbers and the fine local art the agency collected in its most recent promotion for a 2026 scratchoff with a Free State theme.

Getting a shot in the arm of baseball knowledge from Kansas City

Baltimore Positive

Three decades of baseball and sports radio friendship with former Royals reliever Jeff Montgomery comes full circle as Nestor checks in with his Kansas City broadcast pal on the eve of another Lamar Jackson visit and talks pitching, young arms and the never-ending MLB labor wars that will be surfacing again next season.

Heavy is the Super weight of purple expectations

No. 3 TastyNes and 27th Anniversary Tour: Amicci’s Meatballs and Garlic Cheese Bread (aka “The SloppyNes”)

Nestor Aparicio

Everyone who has ever met Nestor knows that Amicci’s in Little Italy is his favorite restaurant on earth. And everyone knows about the world famous Pane Rotundo. But it’s time to share his favorite personal pairing – the meatball and ricotta marinara appetizer sliced and assembled across bubbling, toasty garlic cheese bread and served open faced. (This isn’t a real menu item. But if it was they’d call it “The SloppyNes” because this ain’t your father’s Sloppy Joe and it’s certainly no ordinary “meatball sub.”) Get a fork and a bib!

Fearless Lions came roaring into Ravens den and bullied the bullies

Baltimore Positive

It’s not often that the Baltimore Ravens get pushed around in their house. That happened on Monday night against the Detroit Lions and Luke Jones and Nestor are picking up the pieces of an ugly Ravens loss and a short week of prep before heading to Kansas City to face a similarly scuffling Chiefs team and Patrick Mahomes.

Hollywood nights and a Monday Night Motown football motor

Nestor Aparicio

If you follow our social media, you probably know that Nestor went west to see the fabulous Hollywood Bowl and check it off the top of the bucket list that financial advisor Leonard Raskin always encourages him to seek, stalk and enjoy. They discuss the nightmare Ravens loss to the Lions, too, but The Who and and Aerosmith reunion in Los Angeles were more fun to discuss this week.

The big picture of NFL maze and trying to win games

Baltimore Positive

It’s three weeks into the season and the Baltimore Ravens are 1-2 and the loser at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City on Sunday evening will be 1-3. Luke Jones and Nestor take a bumpy ride through the league and the fast week ahead for Ravens and Chiefs and licking wounds.

Getting the Eagles ready to fly again at Coppin State

Baltimore Positive

It’s a new season and a new school year at Coppin State University where head coach Larry Stewart is getting a whole new cast of student athletes assembled to play in the MEAC.

One, Two and Who? The promise of Rogers and Bradish for Orioles in ’26

Baltimore Positive

There hasn’t been much to provide offseason hope for a last place baseball team but Luke Jones and Nestor agree that the emergence of Trevor Rogers and encouraging return of Kyle Bradish to the top of the Orioles rotation helps ease some pressure on a Birdland offseason of unrest for Mike Elias and a franchise in search of better pitching and awakened, youthful bats next spring.

The Ravens defense that felt defenseless to Lions attack

Baltimore Positive

It’s a rare morning-after where we’re discussing the Baltimore Ravens’ defense getting pushed around at home.

Heeding the roar of Detroit Lions in sound Ravens defeat

Baltimore Positive

How concerned are Ravens about Madubuike injury?

Nestor Aparicio

The bright lights will be out for Monday Night Football but it’s the injury report that has Luke Jones and Nestor concerned beyond the roar of the Detroit Lions.
