Don't yell at me for making a new thread on this. This deserves it's own thread. And I figured it belonged in Bernstein's section. Quotes from the story are from Mac describing it on his show.

Some can't handle a second or even a third thread about the same person, issue or topic, even if it is a new 'spin' on it or them. We must help these people that can't organize more than one thought at a time with a telethon or a charity poker tourney.

It really is pretty mean that his teammates broadcast this shit (no pun intended).

I'm gonna guess millions of people read Deadspin. Especially when you consider this story is gonna be passed around on twitter and facebook.

Let it be said that Big Fan's site was the first to publish this story.

This is hilarious. Yes, Les is gonna go bat-shit crazy over this.

You know where I found it? I was checking Coast to Coast's twitter feed for total picks on the late games. It was in his time line. No picks from Coast, by the way.

It's way more rude to shit in a station you share with other people and not clean it up then it is to make fun of the person who did it.

Come on. He was probably mortified. He should have cleaned it up, yes, but he probably panicked. It would be hard for me to even go back to work - ever - after that.

Whatever. At the end of the day, it's a funny story. People are getting a laugh out of it. First, just CSFMB. Now, the world.

Les will be fine. And the Sum bitch should have cleaned up his mess. I'll never understand why he didn't. Not only that, according to Mac, he's denying it.

Now his move is to own it, make fun of himself and roll with it. He won't. But that's the only way to diffuse it.

I would be hard to go back to work but you should clean up your own shit no matter what.

Think I've said it before, but that Joravsky piece makes Les sound like he has Asperger's/high-functioning autism. The rote memorization, the strict adherence to rules (no drinking, no drugs), the obvious social difficulties. Being really into the CTA?

So you think Les isn't on the spectrum?

I don't think there's anything mean about it all. It appears he shit himself, then created a disaster for the morning show without offering to help.

We're in the ball busting business. No holds barred. Make a bad prediction? Get ripped for it. Divorce? Fair game. Rehab? Have at it. Shit yourself then LEAVE???? License for other hosts to put the man on the grill for weeks.

I like Les and never got the impression he takes himself too seriously. Kinda surprised he's not owning this. If it were me.... well... maybe it will be next time to I should watch what I say.

Without looking I'm guess it is a commode.

Atta boy, Mackie. I agree. You're the one that made the world aware of this. It's not on deadspin unless you told the story.

That being said, watch your back, Mac. I think Les might attack you. He strikes me as somebody that could go "Postal" over this.

Of course. I'm just saying he probably didn't clean it up because he was mortified, not because he was trying to get out of cleaning it up. Maybe he has an illness. Bernsie should be outraged about these potential Hipaa violations!

OK....who did it?

That's really not an excuse. I've said all soon that if he has a health issue I will feel bad and apologize. If he doesn't, then fuck him. He shit in a 24/7 studio that everyone shared and high tailed it out of there without even trying to clean it up, and then he denied it. He deserves to be mocked nationally for this.

He's not sick. Did the show the next day.

It's appropriate to say this in Bernstein's section

Les leaving after shitting in the work place is PURE WHITE TRASH.

Going with Mac's theme, he might want to confront him with this...

Mac: You're not more than one generation removed from "Poor White Trash", aren't you, talk show host Grobstein?

Les: You see a lot, Doctor.

Mac: Pitty about the Deadspin article, not long before the world knows about it. Tic-toc. Tic-toc. Tic-toc.

Les:

No matter what you can't run away like that. But most egregious thing about this is by denying it he's also not apologizing to anyone. So not only does Dustin Meatball have the professional daily torture of listening to Mully but he had to wipe up Les' wet shit. He owes an apology for defiling a shared workspace too. The studio is an enclosed space that everyone shares. It's bad enough these hosts don't shower, rip ass and leave crumbs all over the place.

I was going to say the same thing. The Princess would have jumped off a fucking bridge if he took that kind of ball busting.

Not that it wouldnt have ended different as the relationship already seems strained, but if Les said "hey man, I kind of had an accident, gotta go clean myself up", maybe it doesnt become a national news story, because you know some other morning shock jock is going to run with this somewhere else.

I think one of the late night talk shows might pick this up and put it in their monologue. I'm serious. They always look for shit like this. They certainly got it with this story. Dave, Jimmy, Jimmy or Conan might use it.

Hey everybody, story out of Chicago, an overnight sports talk show host apparently...

I don't understand the he should have cleaned it up part. Is he suppose to stay there in his poopy pants with poop running down his legs and wipe up the studio? Or is he suppose to come back to the studio pantsless and clean up?

I don't know what I'd do if I shit my pants but I'm damn sure I'd be embarrassed. I don't know why the producer cleaned it up. That makes no sense.

The way you do it, Mrs. Spaulding, is he cleans himself up as best as he can in the bathroom. Then comes back to the studio to mop up the Grob-shit. C'mon. You don't leave without cleaning up the Grob-shit.

By the way, is that a new perfume your wearing, Spaulding? I like it. (Alright, sorry, jokes getting old. Well...maybe I'll keep it running for a little while longer. As long as the Grobstein jokes last, at least.)

The part in bold made me LOL. If you read the two sentences out loud to yourself, you will laugh as well.

Have you ever cleaned somebody up after a shit (or vomit) explosion? It's nearly impossible without a shower.

Pour some bisque down your pants, run across your kitchen, then go to your bathroom using only a sink and some toilet paper to try cleaning it up. It's not going to happen. What you are suggesting is not possible.

Who is mac crapping? Didn't he poop or pee in some lady's chair at a football game a few years ago? How much you offer to help her?

Spaulding, dont you have to at least attempt to clean something up?

I can easily see how this could happen. Stomach not feeling good. Get a cough or a sneeze, and there ya go. But you got to at least do something to take care of your mess.

Crazy situation
