Dear Steve Bisciotti: Ask Chad Steele what he thinks I said about Sage so I can tell Ravens fans why I was really exterminated

“What did do you do wrong, Nestor?” “Why would the Ravens throw you out?” “Why are you the only one in the local media whom they’ve thrown out?” “Why have they treated you this way?” “WHAT DID YOU DO WRONG!?!” I am fed up with these questions from Baltimore sports fans so I wrote to the owner because these questions are his to answer. Letters to John Harbaugh and Eric DeCosta are also coming soon.

Why did Chad Steele take my press credentials after 26 years of covering the Baltimore Ravens?

This is my story in my own words. Listen and learn about how the NFL treats the local media and avoids the tough questions and intimidates local media who have traveled and reported on Baltimore football since before Art Modell brought the Ravens here in 1995. What happened is wrong and here’s why…

Dear John Harbaugh: I’ll let your words and “help” tell the story of my professional extermination as a Ravens media member

Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh privately vowed to help Nestor Aparicio with his media credential bullying situation with Chad Steele in any way he could. Weeks later, Aparicio was exterminated. Harbaugh then told him he was unhappy about it but powerless because it wasn’t his department in Owings Mills.

Discussing the future of Camden Yards with an expert

This is important stuff for sports fans and citizens who are funding billionaires for franchises.

When the local media is bullied, Ravens fans are the losers

Lifelong journalist Nestor Aparicio took a deep dive with Dennis Koulatsos on the unprofessional public relations antics of Chad Steele and how the integrity and accountability of the Baltimore Ravens organization has changed dramatically over three decades. “No questions for our leadership about Lamar Jackson,” says the brand manager. Patently absurd.

The end of accountability in Owings Mills

Nestor Aparicio sounds off with Luke Jones on the cowardice of Ravens PR and Chad Steele intimidating the media who dare to ask questions about the state of the franchise quarterback and the future of Lamar Jackson at a legitimate press conference.

After 26 faithful purple seasons, the Ravens have bullied me out of my seats and denied my media access

This is my story. This is the truth. And it must be told. In its entirety because it’s so outrageous as to be almost unbelievable. Covering the Ravens is all I’ve ever done professionally since the team arrived in Baltimore in 1996, and this is how I feed my family and pay my bills as a small local business and AM 1570 radio operator and entrepreneur.
