Podcast appearances and mentions of Steve Bisciotti

It was nearly three decades ago when Nestor dubbed the Baltimore Ravens' Pre-Draft Press Conference "The Liars' Luncheon." So, it's fitting that Luke Jones joins him here for straights truths about the Eric DeCosta "process" that began with Ozzie Newsome and will deftly navigate next weekend's NFL Draft with owner Steve Bisciotti asking hard questions of his football people. The Ravens do this better than anyone. The post Luke Jones and Nestor get ready for NFL Draft and assess Ravens needs by position first appeared on Baltimore Positive WNST.

Many analysts viewed the Ravens selection of Lamar Jackson as a risk back in 2018. Steve Bisciotti explains why he didn't see it that way.

In the aftermath of a second no-so-great start by 41-year old Orioles pitcher Charlie Morton, Luke Jones and Nestor talked about the importance of getting Gunnar Henderson back in the lineup in Kansas City and then veered into the John Harbaugh and Steve Bisciotti lovefest on the team website and the buzz of new leadership for Terps basketball in College Park. The post Luke Jones and Nestor sound off on Morton pitching, Harbaugh and Bisciotti chumming and Buzz Williams coming to Terps first appeared on Baltimore Positive WNST.

Rob, Jeremy, and Ed took some time from Thursday's BBMS to discuss Steve Bisciotti's recent interview with BaltimoreRavens.com, one of the few times in the last two years that he's spoken about his team. Some have called Bisciotti an "absentee owner" but is it better that he doesn't insert himself in the day-to-day of the team?

Steve Bisciotti did a rare interview this week and spoke in depth about his relationship with John Harbuagh. He also talked about the team's inability to get over the hump in the playoffs these past few seasons. Bruce and Vinny share their thoughts on what the owner had to say.

The Ravens have extended their head coach for a few more years. What went into that decision? Steve Bisciotti says it wasn't that hard of a choice to make.

Ravens Owner Steve Bisciotti, Head Coach John Harbaugh, and President Sashi Brown join team insider Garrett Downing to discuss how continuity has bred success and their shared championship vision, look back on drafting quarterbacks Joe Flacco and Lamar Jackson, provide their outlook on the future of M&T Bank Stadium, and much more.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

All is very quiet in Owings Mills and the aftermath of the NFL Owners Meetings in Florida but owner Steve Bisciotti (quietly) inked head coach John Harbaugh to a three-year extension and team president Sashi Brown defended keeping Justin Tucker on the roster. Luke Jones and Nestor turn their lonely eyes from lots of baseball to some spring attention onto Ravens' talking points as "zero tolerance" continues to be a laughable concept within the franchise. The post Luke Jones and Nestor spring attention onto Ravens talking points as Tucker remains and draft looms first appeared on Baltimore Positive WNST.

Rob and Jeremy took some time from Tuesday's BBMS to debate when the Ravens will get an extension done with Lamar Jackson. Harbaugh said the Ravens and Jackson have spoken, but there's nothing imminent. If you're Eric DeCosta and Steve Bisciotti are you pushing to get that deal done as soon as possible? If you're Lamar, do you wait it out to get as much money as possible?

While we watch Steve Bisciotti's paid-for-by-the-citizens new shiny object get erected on the football stadium and await to hear the plan of David Rubenstein for Camden Yards, Leonard Raskin and Nestor discuss aging stadia, big money, threats of moving sports franchises and civic donations to billionaires for sports teams that aren't happening in places like Kansas City, Phoenix, Oakland and Northern Virginia.

With our crew in Florida for Orioles spring training and a new beginning for the baseball franchise, Luke Jones and Nestor wonder aloud where and why the Ravens' owner might be seeking quiet shelter while the rest of his billionaire partners convene at the NFL Owners Meetings in Orlando this week to count their money.

Blackbird Labs is a life sciences accelerator with a mission to develop Baltimore's biotech startup ecosystem. Funded by the owners of the Baltimore Ravens, Blackbird's focus is on bridging the gap between research labs and clinical trials.In Episode #32, Andy Rogers of Key Tech talks with Blackbird Labs CEO Matt Tremblay about Blackbird's integrated initiative to foster life science and biotech research in Baltimore.Need to knowBuilding Baltimore's biotech infrastructure — The Baltimore area is home to some of the nation's top biotech research institutions with lots of mid-career talent, but a relatively underdeveloped investor ecosystem compared to Silicon Valley.Building a thriving ecosystem — With a mission to foster entrepreneurship and reduce Baltimore's opportunity gap, Baltimore Ravens owner Steve Bisciotti's family foundation wants to develop the region's biotech innovation.Blackbird Labs gets innovations out of the lab — A $100 million founding grant will let Blackbird Labs accelerate life sciences innovation by helping promising research cross the gap separating the lab from the market.Blackbird Bioventures moves startups towards the market — Making seed-stage investments and cultivating a network of investors, advisors, and leaders will help biotech startups shift from research to clinical trials.The nitty-grittyBlackbird Labs and Blackbird Bioventures address a significant hurdle preventing novel therapies and technologies from reaching the market. A laboratory discovery is too risky for investors. There are too many open questions concerning safety and efficacy.“When a new therapeutic is identified,” Tremblay explains, “we can't just immediately go into a clinical study.”Blackbird Labs attacks the problem from one end by funding research at universities and contract labs that no longer fits within the academic systems of publications and grant-making.“What you may need is another one to two years of very focused research to create the data that will then draw in investors that can support the development of this technology all the way to market.”That is when Blackbird Bioventures enters the picture. Startups need capital to prepare for and enter clinical trials, which Blackbird's early seed investments and investor networks help provide. Since its launch last November, Tremblay's organization has already awarded grants to six research teams and invested in four existing startups. Data that made the difference:“An important element of our business model is syndicating with other investors but also strategic partners like Big Pharma,” Tremblay says. “We have a few different layers of challenges to overcome. We're not just looking at… commercial potential, but we also have to look at the feasibility on a one to three-year timescale.”The goal is to generate what Tremblay calls “prudent principal data” to excite potential investors. This data must meet two criteria. First, is there a strong mechanistic underpinning for therapy's efficacy? Second, can the project generate clinical data on a meaningful timescale to show that the therapeutic works?Blackbird's data and investments, Trembly explains, “is a signal to the market that this is an important technology. The goal is then to bring investors from within the Baltimore ecosystem — but importantly from outside of the mid-Atlantic —folks that are investing in very high-quality companies in Boston and San Francisco to look at what we're building here.”

Steve Bisciotti once pulled off an absolute magic trick when he convinced Eric DeCosta to turn down several NFL GM jobs and wait 5 years to take over after Ozzie Newsome stepped down.  Well, with the growing popularity of defensive coordinator Mike Macdonald, some Ravens fans are sending a message to Bisciotti.

The Fall of 2006 was a tenuous time for Baltimore Ravens head coach Brian Billick. In just seven seasons on the job, he had seen everything from taking an unheralded young franchise to a Super Bowl, to a revolving door at quarterback, and an ownership change that would severely shake up his professional life. The team's new owner was a self-made billionaire from unassuming beginnings named Steve Bisciotti, and it was the fact that he and the head coach of his new team were more alike than different that would make their dynamic a difficult one to navigate. Billick's act was easy to take when the results on the field were positive; when things went the other way, the charm had a tendency to wear off a bit. Bisciotti now had an organization to run, and a lot of important choices to make – in order to find and follow the best path forward for the Ravens, he had to determine whether Brian Billick was actually a great coach, or all (straw reebok) hat and no cattle. Before he could even decide on that however, he had to suss out whether the two of them could get past some personal differences that were more prominent than ever now that they were working directly with one another. Tenuous times indeed.

Luke Jones and Dennis Koulatsos discuss realities of the few QB seats left for Lamar Jackson in NFL

After hijacking the Coaches Breakfast press conference with John Harbaugh and the national media with a tweet outing his March 2 trade request, we wonder what happens next for the Ravens' disgruntled former MVP quarterback. Luke Jones and Nestor answer the Lamar Jackson mandate for the Baltimore Ravens and opine on the few possibilities for peace and prosperity in this broken relationship.

Longtime sports columnist and insider Bob Kravitz joins Nestor from Indianapolis where Jim Irsay might be one of the remaining owners to covet the Ravens former MVP quarterback.

Luke Jones and Nestor tamper into free agency with Lamar Jackson updates and observations

Our financial advisor Leonard Raskin joins Nestor to discuss where Lamar Jackson goes now that the rest of the NFL can take their best shot at making him their franchise quarterback. Are the phone lines burning up?

Luke Jones and Nestor discuss the Ravens training room and legacy of Steve Saunders

In the hours after the announcement of his non-exclusive franchise tag, many NFL teams feigned their disinterest in the Ravens starting quarterback. Luke Jones and Nestor Aparicio have very different opinions about the options and choices that will be available to Lamar Jackson in the coming days and weeks leading up to the NFL Draft and beyond.

Luke Jones and Nestor discuss the franchise tag on Lamar Jackson and what the market will be

Luke Jones and Nestor go marching into free agency and the franchise tag designation to see where this standoff will go between Eric DeCosta and the Ravens organization as the window tightens.

You might have heard that Lamar Jackson's contract is up. By all accounts, coach John Harbaugh, GM Eric DeCosta and owner Steve Bisciotti all want Lamar Jackson back, and Harbaugh has said Jackson wants to be in Baltimore. So why hasn't a deal happened yet? We break down the reasons, and the scenarios that could unfold over the next few months. If the Ravens resort to the franchise tag, should Jackson hold out through OTAs and training camp? Wilcox has some opinions on that. And how do the Ravens go about hiring a new offensive coordinator with such uncertainty at QB? Jackson's contract status is clearly the biggest story of the offseason for the Ravens -- and probably entire NFL.

Today's word of the day is ‘defamation' as in Trevor Bauer is back! No, not back pitching, but back in the news. Last night Bauer took to Twitter and said he is suing The Athletic and former employee Molly Knight. Let's explain what's going on here. (13:20) Roger Goodell answered some media questions yesterday at the NFL owners meetings. He spoke about a few different topics, but let's read what he said about Deshaun Watson. (20:20) Ravens owner Steve Bisciotti was at the NFL Owner's Meetings and spoke about Deshaun Watson and Lamar Jackson. Watson got a fully guaranteed deal from the Cleveland Browns. Now what happens with the Ravens and Lamar Jackson who needs a new deal after this season? Bisciotti is not happy! (28:50) Review: Against The Ice. (33:20) Everyone was mad about the overtime rules in the NFL. Bills vs Chiefs, anyone? So they changed the rules for the postseason. Easy fix. (38:30) Are the Kansas City Chiefs moving to Kansas? Is that possible? What about the Washington Commanders? Are they moving too? Is everyone moving!? (42:30) NPPOD. (44:30) Jim Irsay is the owner of the Indianapolis Colts.
