2010 Mock Draft Version 1.0
It's officially Draft Season here at the Nest! Fortunately, we've had the pleasure around here of not having to start thinking about the next year's draft until late January the past two seasons (unlike dismal 2007, where we started thinking draft around November-ish). Admittedly, we take a very unscientific approach to our mock drafts. I'm the first to admit that the true draft geeks amongst you, dear readers, would probably be better served getting your information elsewhere (Glenn Clark, for one). These posts are done knowing full well that 1000's of variables will come into effect between now ...
NestMinder & Goob go to Indy (aka “America’s Rest Stop)
You all know B'More Birds' Nest commenter "Goob." Last season, as you can see, Goob went to Nashville to watch the Ravens beat the AFC #1 seed Tennessee Titans in the Divisional round of the playoffs. He had BEGGED me to go. Because I was poor, and because I didn't think the Ravens had much of a chance to beat the Titans, I passed. A decision I will regret, well, pretty much forever. And so, this year, when the Ravens advanced to the Divisional Round again to face this year's #1 seed, the Indianapolis Colts, I did not resist when Goob ...
“G*D Damn It, Donald!” – Peyton Manning
First off, credit where it is due: Thanks to B'More Birds' Nest Heel Christmas Ape for the following video. Make sure your sound is on: Some good footage there of one of the, oh, three or so plays the Ravens actually made last Saturday. Knowing that they frustrated ol' Pey-Pey at least once is something, I guess.
Colts 20 Ravens 3 (The EIGHTH STRAIGHT LOSS TO INDY Game)
What is it about the Ravens that seems to bring out the best in the Colts' defense time and time again? Year after year, Indy has a dog-crap defense, and year after year, that dog-crap defense looks like a mighty combination of the 1985 Bears and 2000 Ravens when the boys from B'More line up against them. The particulars this time around? The Colts had the 18th-ranked defense in the NFL, and were 24th against the run. They gave up 100-yard rushing days to Maurice Jones-Drew, Ronnie Brown, Steven Jackson, Thomas Jones, Chris Johnson, and Fred ...

Super Bowl Shmoooper Bowl
While NestMinder went 2-0 against the spread in the conference championship edition of our picks. Nick-A-What!? successfully picked both winners straight up. (Editors note: Also, lost both spreads) So now on to the last game of the NFL Season. Nick-a-What!? says: Colts -4.5 v. Saints The city of New Orleans has never seen a Super Bowl, let alone a Championship ring. So at least we’ve got... [Read more]

Conference Championship Shmampionship
It’s a Nick-A-What?! & NestMinder Special! With the Ravens season officially over, Nestminder and I have decided to pick up where we left off 2 years ago. Predicting playoff games! The last time we did this in 2007-2008, the Ravens missed the playoffs so it made it a little extra exciting to watch. As you should know (if you’re reading this you’d better know) that there are only... [Read more]
ESPN Gets in on the “Low Blows”
We’re all very familiar by now with the “it’s not a low blow, just a fact,” catch phrase of WNST’s Drew Forrester. Drew borrowed it from Ian Eagle (I believe?) of CBS, who, while covering a Ravens game a few seasons back, made a pointed remark when the cameras were showing an overhead shot of Oriole Park at Camden Yards. That remark went something like this (paraphrasing):... [Read more]
