Oh, and you have to know a LOT about Baltimore sports to get people to listen to you every day and read your work at WNST.net. And that’s where this competition always separates experts like Luke Jones (our 2009 King of Baltimore Sports winner and now our morning show producer and Ravens & Orioles beat reporter) from a pack of otherwise “well-educated” Baltimore sports fans. And Luke Jones isn’t the only success story to brag about. Brett Dickinson was a co-winner in 2012 and continues to be a proud member of the WNST family as a co-host of the “Weekend Warriors” with Barry Kamen, who won our 2013 BSMS competition outright.
