Luke Jones and Nestor discuss their mutual disgust with every aspect of the Baltimore Orioles, on and off the field – from David Rubenstein and Catie Griggs down to Mike Elias and the sloppy play on the diamond.

Holidays. Celebrate. Win!

While Nestor wanted to lean in on Maryland Lottery Executive Director John Martin just a tad during Cleveland Week (Guardians exit and Browns fall), this one also included a mutual Fernando Valenzuela tribute and a chance to roll out the big holiday scratch-offs and promotions that have skipped right past the pumpkin pie and into the peppermint season.
