Anyone else hear Grobber's rant against Bernstein's stance on Lou Brock? Grobber is not buying any of that "Sabermetrics crap." I don't always agree with Les, but I'm glad there's someone on the Score that isn't afraid to stand up to all of the "intellectuals" that now run the station. |

Although Grobber did just yell at a caller for saying Ryan instead of Ryne Sandberg. Bernstein wins again! |

But when I did, I heard him contradict Bernstein quite a bit & lots of his callers made it clear they hated B & B as well. I kind of enjoy the zaniness & encyclopedia aspect of his show. Unfortunately with the route the station has gone from 9am-midnight, he won't get a prime time slot. |

After you poop in the studio and it's covered by Deadspin, that ship has probably already sailed. |

Les had no call around 4am, so he was literally reading ever text. I asked him for the number for Sportsphone and he went on a 2 minute dialogue after saying sportsphone no longer exists. |

Les is great. He's been the same guy ever since he was on Steve and Garry. No "I've evolved" bullshit from him. |

Have to love that he will turn a text on anything into a short segment. |

Les definitely deserves more love from the Score but overnights do not have ratings so they really have no incentive to give him any pub. It is sad because I think Les is the best thing on the station. If you want to hear some old school overnight Score radio check out https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC2GtBXmnNFqZdLQi-PkdgXQ |

He is a unique listen. The few times a year I find myself around a radio when he is on I enjoy it for 30-45 minutes or so. He fills the time. |

My pleasure Kenny. I'm glad you enjoyed listening. Now if you people want to petition for me to come back as Grobber's producer I guarantee you it would be the most entertaining show on the station. Here's the link again for anyone who wants to listen to the most unprofessional scoreboard update guy/producer in Score history!!!! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC2GtBXmnNFqZdLQi-PkdgXQ |
