Any list of questions for Bisciotti should begin with Tucker – and anything else we’ve missed since Lamar was drafted

/

Do you have your own “Dear Steve Bisciotti” list of questions? We do. And we will, as Luke Jones will be in The Castle on Tuesday afternoon as the Baltimore Ravens owner and general manager Eric DeCosta will address (some of) the local media and take some questions about the search for a new coach after the firing of John Harbaugh this week.

For the love of Lamar

When the national pundits are discussing the future of Lamar Jackson in Baltimore, it alarms Ravens fans across the purple nation. New Jersey is the home of Vinny Vilardi, a filmmaker who works behind the scenes at MLB Network, but his Ravens’ fandom and passion for No. 8 is told in his story and the untold story of the mysterious two-time, MVP whose renegotiation with Eric DeCosta will become the biggest story in the NFL this offseason.

WNST STORY OF GLORY No. 4: The night we brought Harbaugh, Tomlin and Billick together to share Super Bowl glory stories

/

In the aftermath of Jennifer Aparicio’s miraculous survival following a second bone marrow transplant, we were inspired to do a second “Night of Heroes” after leukemia survivor Chuck Pagano came back to Baltimore in 2015 to raise money and awareness for There Goes My Hero and the power of swabbing to save lives. If you missed one of the great nights in Baltimore vs. Pittsburgh sports partnerships in May 2016, you can relive it by watching three Super Bowl winning head coaches on one stage for a great cause. This was also the last public appearance of former Ravens president David Modell, who had some very important words, as did Super Bowl XXXV champion James Trapp, who also survived leukemia. A powerful evening.
