Hall of Fame head coach Don Shula graced our airwaves several times over the years and even bought me a steak once downtown. One time he sat on our Miami Super Bowl set with a dummy. The other time, he sat with me at Super Bowl XXXV in Tampa. Back in 2007, I began working on a book about coaches and leadership with connections to Baltimore. I interviewed about 25 pretty significant people – and I have never unearthed any of it except some stuff with Frank Kush. I still have it on a hard drive and it’s amazing. I scuttled the idea when I had other concerns in my life but Coach Shula always offered to sit – long form – and tell me anything I wanted to know about the Colts. And I never took him up on it. I feel foolish today. We lost the greatest football coach there ever was today. #RIPDonShula #Nestalgia

Leibovich: On the swamp and racket of The Big Game and bad government

"It's the best book ever written about the modern National Football League," so says Nestor about Big Game. And that's why we love having its author Mark Leibovich back on when his New England Patriots proudly return to Baltimore for some playoff knockout style football. Now with The Atlantic, the longtime political insider for The New York Times is also heavily immersed in Trumplandia and weighs in on the ongoing Epstein saga and the usual D.C. shenanigans.
