Did Mike Rossi (viral marathon dad) cheat his way into Boston?

"Evidence Mike did not run the entire course:"

Which LVM RD and USATF decided wasn't evidence that he didn't run the course. What don't you idiots understand, provide the evidence that will satisfy an independent inquiry, not this threads kangaroo court, that he didn't run the course. It's that simple FFS.

That's right; just keep this baby clicking along until Rossi runs another race, gets divorced, quits running and takes up shooting to get out his frustrations by blowing something to shreds (he posted that on his Facebook page and reads like a thinly veiled threat, but whatever), or whatever other thing he can do to spur on another burst of thousands and thousands of posts.

Can you imagine what happens here when he cranks another 4:00+ marathon!

I think we can all agree he can go sub 4.

Mike's pumping up the likes on his FB post now...and his friends think 4:01 is fast. They must be mocking him.

Never ending laughs. He probably really thinks he won.

As I said, it's a fine school. But the LInkedIn Page for Cindy Rossi pretty much has herself down as a party planner to raise money. So perhaps she hasn't used her degree to its full potential yet.

But my point was that a guy who spends al that money to go to Temple and ends up yelling at drunks all night shouldn't really be judging others. Especially when it comes to weight and whether they can run a marathon a or not. Mike seems to think he is a superior human because he ran the Boston marathon. He keeps forgetting that he didn't earn the right to even be in the race at all.

Do you concede that Boston qualifiers who qualified and finished legitimately are superior human beings to those who do not?

I believe that is wishful thinking given the degree of evidence she requires...more than convicted the evil marathon bomber or Aaron Hernandez. She is as incompetent as Mike is morally corrupt. Win for Mike!

I feel a bit sorry for Barb wrote:

My theory is that you combine the fact that Barb is not an experienced runner with the fact that Mike Rossi IS likely an experienced liar, and she was easily fooled.

My guess is that Mike can be a convincing liar, along the lines of Lance --cocky, dramatic, forceful. Given her lack of knowledge of marathon running, and likely a lack of appreciation of keeping the integrity of the sport intact, she took the path of what seemed the least resistance. She likely, given her ignorance, thought it was possible he actually ran.

In summary, I don't think her decision stemmed from willfully ignoring the facts or being a dishonest person or anything like that. The good thing is that I'll bet she has learned from this experience.

The onus then shifts to Mike to provide evidence that he ran the full course.

No it doesn't the onus is still on the prosecution to provide evidence he didn't.

If found guilty by an independent inquiry THEN the onus is on "Mike to provide evidence that he ran the full course" should he CHOSE to do so, he could chose to do so at the present time but he choses not to which is his right.

Well is anyone faster than Mike?Nah. Just everyone.

we all have friends like Mike wrote:

I agree he wont be dq'd, but he hasn't won. he's widely ridiculed and known as a cheat. he has all his beloved social media on lock down. all his friends talk about this behind his back. this will live on for years. what a win!

Running doesn't make anybody superior to any other human being. What separates people is their behavior and their honor and decency. Some people have no honor, and they are inferior flawed human beings. People who lie and cheat - they have no honor. Those people are scum. So, for example, if you know a person who cheated in a marathon and lied about it, that person has no honor and is inferior scum. If that cheater tries to obfuscate the truth by twisting other peoples words and effectively telling more lies to cover his lies, he's an even worse human being and even more inferior.

Physically fit and superior humans are two separate debates. But my point earlier is that Mike cannot make that distinction. Mike thinks because he ran Boston he is a better human being than me. And that is the basis of his fat jokes.

But he forgets that even his own boss is fat. I'll bet he doesn't ridicule Bob to his face. Because for all his bravado, of running the photo and video departments, they are still all owned by Bob.

Mike tried his own production company called Mike Rossi Productions and where is it? He couldn't make it work. His photo and video department only exist because they offer low budget products to costumers who come in and book DJ services first.

So Mike can "think" whatever he wants, but the bottom line is any success he has had in his "career" is because of a man that is approximately the same weight at me. Mike is the puppet of a fat man. But obviously a man with more brains than Mike.

Mike has brains? I thought everyone knew he is full of shitz.

Stop it with the fat talk I'm feeling squeamish.

The people of Letsrun v. Accused:

You think this thread is funny?

No it's tragic.

Do you have an answer to the ?

Absolutely. My answer is I don't have the first damn clue. Maybe he was an early riser and liked to run negative splits. And maybe he didn't have any friends. I'm an educated man, but I'm afraid I can't speak intelligently about the training habits of anyone including myself. What I do know is that he was at the finish line at 03:11. Now, are these the questions I was really called here to answer? Photographs and base training? Please tell me that you have something more. Please tell me you haven't pinned your hopes to a lack of photos or gps data.

Sit down I haven't dismissed you.

DJ

What?

DJ it's my title I believe I've earned it.

When you ran that marathon any chance you went off course by accident?

No

Any chance everyone else went off course and only you were on the right course?

No

Any chance you missed a turn on that course?

You ever try to so a tv show and have to play dumb next to Kelly Ripa?

No

You ever spin records at a Jersey shore wedding?

No

You ever introduce a fat ugly bride who is 8 months pregnant as the beautiful whatever her name is?

No

You ever try to stay out of wedding photos for a 3 hour reception?

No

You ever try to spin records and keep moving over a 3 hour reception?

No

It can't be done without years of training, DJ training, even then you have to take breaks no one can keep moving for over 3 hours straight steady, you have to know how to take a discrete break during the father daughter dance etc.

Discretion?

That discretion is not possible without years of training at weddings and sleeping In every day something you can't do

You ever dance with the first wife mother in law and put your ass in her hands for the sake of a smooth wedding reception?

No

We spin records son. We spin records all night long or people have bad weddings.

It's that simple are we clear? Are we clear?

Yes

Crystal

I have just one more question

When you said someone can't stay out of photos without years of training at weddings you meant that?

Yes I meant that

And that would be true for marathons too?

Yes I have selfies at the start and finish.

That's not what you said.

I know what I said

You said it's not posible to stay out of photographs for 3 hours straight, not possible to keep moving for 3 hours straight.

I recall what I said you snotty little jerk.

The court will wait for an answer to the question.

You didn't train to qualify and when the time wasn't there for you and the going got rough you cut the course

I want answers.

You want answers?

I want the truth

You don't have to answer that question sir

I'll answer the question

You can't handle the truth! Son, we live in a world that has weddings with fat chicks and those weddings have to be guarded by men with guts. And marathons with team in training fat chicks and the elites need a buffer between them. Who's gonna do it? You? You, Kenny? I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for The principal and last runner out and you curse the DJs. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know, that Dancing with fat chicks like Kenny's girlfriend, while tragic, probably saveslives. And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves lives! You don't want the truth, because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that track You need me on that road you need an emotional buffer of men like me to keep you from team in training dat chicks. Without me you finish 1 and 2 in front of a fat chick placing 3rd. We use words like "sneakers", "team in training" "hope" and "charity". We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use them as a punchline. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it! I would rather you just said "thank you", and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a microphone and try some karaoke and then try to train for a BQ in the morning. Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you are entitled to!

Did you cut that reception short?

I did the job that—-

Did you cut that reception short?

YOU'RE GODDAMN RIGHT I DID!!

Question for you:

WTF are you on?

DID. NOT. SEE. THAT. COMING.

Judge Advocate: March in the guilty man.

"dancing with fat chicks, while tragic, probably saves lives"

Truer words were never spoken
