Not Les Grobstein

AKA, The Grobber. Overnight talent at 670 The Score, human encyclopedia, alleged coffee spiller, nose bleeder, studio pooper, hater of Mike Martz. #RIPGrobber

Just got up here in heaven and already interviewing God with my trusty tape deck. #RIPGrobber

I'm so happy @markgrotesports has accepted the challenge and has agreed to take the overnight Mic. No one can replace the Legend, the Grobber but Les loved Mark like a brother. Midnight tonight. #ThankuMark

@ChrisRongey Oh hell yea!

[Chris Rongey @ChrisRongey]

I’m no Mark Grote - who is no Les Grobstein - but I do some of my best work before 5am. That’s why I’ll be hosting some of the nights Mark isn’t.

Grote is 60% insane, and I’m only about 20%. It literally takes multiple people to recreate Les, who was 100% certifiable.

@DannyParkins @NHLBlackhawks CAL-GARY!

Classy by the @NHLBlackhawks at Les’ seat in the press box tonight.

The #Bears statement on the passing of our friend Les Grobstein.

[jon greenberg @jon_greenberg]

This is such a good story. The Reader has a bunch of great sports journalist profiles from the 1980s and 90s, including ones on @North2North and Chet Coppock.

[jon greenberg @jon_greenberg]

It's linked in my stories, but @joravben wrote the all-time Les Grobstein story back in 1997. That's the one that inspired my Grobber journalism: https://t.co/EMNvWfxUbc

[Not Les Grobstein @NotLesGrobstein]

I know we are all pushing around @jon_greenberg Grobber article but let’s not forget the original Les bio-piece. Great stuff by @joravben back in 1998. https://t.co/6fBUYQzqru

I dare anyone to care about and respect sports radio as much as this guy did…it can’t be done.

Rest In Peace Les Grobstein.

“Grobber” - Thank you for all the late night radio memories over the years.
Some of the greatest times in #ChicagoHistory.

Les Grobstein, Chicago’s sports encyclopedia and longtime radio host, dies at age 69 https://t.co/vu7Ay7W5oS

[Dionne Miller @dmillerabc7]

Heartbroken. Les was a Chicago treasure. I was a regular middle of the night listener and he was always so kind to me when we’d catch up in a press box. Our city lost an irreplaceable voice. Prayers of comfort to his loved ones & @670TheScore family ♥️
