This is the definitive story of the 2012 Baltimore Ravens championship season and Super Bowl XLVII victory in New Orleans as told by local journalist "Nasty" Nestor Aparicio, who is entering his fourth decade chronicling the Baltimore sports scene. Through storytelling, behind-the-scenes insights and viewed through the eyes and words of the players and decision makers, this book examines the ideologies of Steve Bisciotti, Ozzie Newsome, John Harbaugh, and how the team was led by Ray Lewis, Ed Reed and Joe Flacco, and inspired by O.J. Brigance.
Overcoming adversity and personal tragedies, the Ravens used theology sprinkled with faith, family and love on the way to a Baltimore parade fueled by inspiration, dedication, perspiration and yes, a little bit of luck.
Aparicio began his career in 1984 chronicling sports for The News American and The Baltimore Sun before hosting sports radio in 1992. In 1998, he purchased WNST-AM 1570 and retired in 2006 after hosting 14 years of daily sports radio - including three as a nationally-syndicated host on Sporting News Radio - assuming a full-time role as C.E.O. of WNST.net where "We Never Stop Talking" Baltimore sports has extended to the mobile web with the area's largest social media footprint and around the clock conversation, news and views. He also loves the Ravens.
