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.
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.
The NFL Films icon, pioneer and the “eyes” of football for fans gave Nestor a chance to be on Top 10 so often.
