WNST - Flacco Announcement today?

Does anyone have any inside information / guesses about what this could be about? Hopefully it involves Joe getting involved with the fans in the community...

Now that would be something. Big talks kept under the radar would be a real nice Christmas present. I'd love to see it happen but I doubt it will

I don't think it's anything like that- they mentioned some kind of partnership with Flacco- maybe it's a radio show...

Don't know why a contract extension would be announced on WNST by Flacco instead of through a release from the team. Isn't it also well known that the Ravens don't do contract negotiations during the season?

I'd guess its something really not that exciting. According to today's Late for Work on the Ravens website, there was recently a "huge announcement" by Boldin on WNST, and it was just for a charity event.. "Whatever it is, you all may remember Anquan Boldin posted a tweet last Feburary that he was going to be announcing some “big and exciting” news. Fans had similar predictions back then. The news turned out to be an important, but less exciting, charity event."

Nestor is a huge self-promoter, it has everything to do w/ him.

What business owner isn't a huge self-promoter?

Steve Bisciotti off the top of my head. Nestor on the other hand is over the top. When he isn't getting into frivilous lawsuits or writing "expose" pieces on the Baltimore media, he is pretty darn good at analyzing sports (especially the Ravens & the O's).

This.

There is no way Flacco is announcing something like a contract extension, or anything that has to do with anything on the field.

Nester even worded it as "something big for me and WNST" and "partnership".

Joe likely has either invested in WNST and become somewhat of a partner in the station, has agreed to do a weekly radio show with WNST, or will be partnering in some type of charity event(s).

No way it's anything else.
