Like the caller this morning after hearing about 3 or 4 of them, I had had enough, and now I just switch the channel when they come on. Especially now that the Raven's season has started I would rather hear the game re-hashed 50 times than more on the early years.Section 106 from start to finish!

Re: WNST Pity Party
Regarding WNST getting publicity or whatever out of this, who cares. They are setting it all up and doing the work so why not? It's a non-issue.
I hear a lot of "Nestor is setting up the rally by describing his love for baseball." If you people have been listening and hearing constant stories about partying with Van Halen and other meaningless crap you wouldn't be saying that.
It's ridiculous and totally unnecessary. I was all for the rally at first and was impartial to Nestor, but now its finished for me. It's pretty sad and frustrating when you want to listen to Bob Haynie and his show is cutoff to hear about Nestors pop. Why don't we use that time for people to write their own stories about past Orioles baseball memories instead of hearing the same old crap from Nestor every day? He could even read those stories since he is in love with the sound of his own voice.
How can you say "separate your feelings for Nestor" when he is sponsoring the rally? It would be like saying to a die hard Republican who opposes the war that he should separate his feelings for the Democrats and protest in DC. Never gonna happen.

Re: WNST Pity Party
My point Drew, is that people out there will use their disdain for Nestor to take shots at the station and their involvement. That is what I dont think you take into consideration. I think you don't realize the volume of folks out there who dislike Nestor and as a result, use that as a weapon against anyone or anything attached to him.

Re: WNST Pity Party
BTW, Nestors Aunt Jane loved the Padres. This story really motivated me to get down and Take back the birds! Mainly because she was a lot like Nestors pop.

Give me a break. His enormous ego just bleeds from the airwaves. NEWSFLASH: We don't care about the Padres, Aunt Jane, or some fucking fish tacos. This is why I have a hard time separating the rally from Nestors ego.

Re: WNST Pity Party
When Kyle got hurt last season and everybody cheered, I turned to a friend and said; "Now we know where the WNST listeners sit! Since then I have come to find out I wasn't the only person thinking that thought.

Re: WNST Pity Party
learn your history f angelos..."If we had cared this much about the Colts maybe they'd still be here."
We did care!
After years of Irsay unabashedly shopping the team around the country (remember 50, 000 plus in the gator bowl for the "bring us the Colts rally")..and delivering year after year an increasingly bad team AND trading elway to Denver...THAT will get you a half filled stadium!
The Mayflowers moved in only after the state legislature started "imminant domain" proceedings!!
