Dear John Harbaugh: The long fraud of your goodbye and $oft landing in The Big Apple

Nestor Aparicio

I’ve blessed myself with time to give your rather abrupt departure here some time to fully decant – like a hair-raising, pellet gun plum Ravens vintage – and smelling that musty, stale aroma and a hint of that rancid taste in the mouth you get when someone leaves town wearing a smile that doesn’t quite match the damage they did on the way out. “What do you want me to tell the other humans I know when they ask me about you?”

Sending another Irsay Nastygram to Indianapolis as Ravens visit Colts

Baltimore Positive

Oh, we always have fun with those guys in Indianapolis! It’s been 42 years since the people of Indiana pilfered the Colts away in the middle of the night. But the ESPN Indy guys still ask about the legend of Beanie Bob (via Ricig) and Nestor still reminds them that there have been two Ravens parades in Baltimore. But does the next one down Pratt Street begin with Lamar Jackson heading to the friendly heart of the Midwest to start the season? He offers a full preview of what he thinks of the new Jesse Minter operation here to the good people of Indy.

Dear Jesse Minter: The ‘Super Bowl or bust’ Ravens mandate is now yours…good luck!

Nestor Aparicio

Steve Bisciotti didn’t fire John Harbaugh after 18 years to get younger at the podium or friendlier in the hallway. Big-Schotti did it because two-time NFL MVP Lamar Jackson is in his prime and this franchise and its owner believes the Baltimore Ravens should be playing winning football in mid-February. So, welcome to Baltimore, Coach Minter. No pressure or anything…

Picking up the pieces of the sorry state of Orioles

Baltimore Positive

Sure, Luke Jones talked about the lousy baseball over the weekend and the four-game sweep by the Boston Red Sox at Camden Yards. But Nestor lost his mind in this one about the lack of respect this new ownership group had regarding “honoring” the surviving members of legendary 1966 Orioles World Series on their 60th anniversary. Imagine a guy named “Aparicio” living in Baltimore losing his freaking mind over the indignity of the whole shoddy performance? When is this nightmare season over?

First things, first: Beating the Colts on Sunday in Indy

Baltimore Positive

What will Ravens fans find by flocking in Rio de Janeiro this month?

Nestor, who did the Copacabana, Ipanema and Corcovado run in 2006 with the Rolling Stones in the biggest concert in the history of the planet, asks our resident financial expert what he’s hoping to find in Rio de Janeiro – other than Dallas Cowboys fans.

On and off the ice with former WBAL Sportsline host Jeff Rimer

A wowser from Cowser and mooing off the catch of the year in Colorado

Nestor Aparicio

Was it the greatest catch we’ve ever seen?

Moo.

No, the Orioles aren’t eliminated yet…

Baltimore Positive

The Baltimore Orioles are headed on the road for nine games in St. Louis, Sacamento and Denver. As Luke Jones points out to Nestor, just because it’s a terrible “pennant race” in regard to the final American League Wild Card berth, the Birds have a unique stretch here to make up ground against some of the worst teams in baseball and still reach the October tournament.
