We're not the only ones who loved the late, great Ernie Accorsi.

Somebody better spread the news that Baltimore was the epicenter of several gigantic "bring them into the city" events this year. The greatest soccer player of our lifetime. The biggest country music artist in America did two nights. So did the biggest K-Pop act in the world. And the two biggest rugby clubs in the world left behind big tourist money.

As the leaves change and the days shorten, there's still time to hit the links and enjoy some of the best golf of the year at any Classic 5 Golf course around the city. It's always fun to welcome Ed Miller of Pine Ridge Golf to talk fall links, getting great instruction to improve your game and trying to understand the viewing experience and international match play of the Presidents Cup at Medinah this weekend.

Coming off an ugly home beat, the Baltimore Ravens will hop a plane to Rio de Janeiro and a business trip against the Dallas Cowboys in Brazil. The lights will be bright, the turf will be questionable and the men of Jesse Minter will be depleted and need to respond against the biggest football brand in the world on international television from the legendary Maracana.

There's no sugar-coating an ugly loss than ends with a 16-play drive where your defense can't get off the field and your new "defensive genius" head coach has no explanations after losing to the New Orleans Saints and a neophyte quarterback at home. Luke Jones and Nestor discuss the Ravens defense and how Tyler Shough somehow willed the Saints past a group we believed to be more formidable at all three levels.

The reason we save money is to enjoy it and this week many Baltimore Ravens fans will be experiencing a once-in-a-lifetime (or at least until the Ravens play in Abu Dhabi or Bangkok) trip to Rio de Janeiro to see the men of Jesse Minter take on the Dallas Cowboys in an international clash at the legendary Maracana Stadium, which may or may not be a playable NFL surface. Our money dude Leonard Raskin joins Nestor to discuss exploring Brazil and staying on the safe side of the Copacabana and Ipanema beaches. Oh, only one of us is going to South America this time...

For some of us it was Judas Priest and Ted Nugent and for others it was The Cars and Depeche Mode. But the music of our lives and the stories of the bands, shows and songs add some color to our lives four decades later. Leonard Raskin joins Nestor for a 28th Anniversary retrospective at Costas Inn in Dundalk on the Maryland Crab Cake Tour for the backstage tales from the Ratt Poison Tour that went awry...

It's always a pleasure to welcome NFL historian and lifer sports writer Howard Balzer from the desert back to get Nestor ready for another Baltimore Ravens season with a deep conversation about the changes coming to the Pro Football Hall of Fame selection system and the long road to Canton for Lamar Jackson and any of the other current players starting another long season with Super Bowl hopes and yellow jacket dreams.
