Hi Mike. For someone who says he doesn't care what the "haters" think or say, you certainly act like you do, what with your constant updates to your Facebook account, your deletions of inappropriate and/or incriminating content from your social media accounts, and your pathetic tweets. I am pretty sure your attorney told you to stop posting and tweeting about this situation, it cannot help and it may hurt. Check his emails. They would be from his AOL email address, so they may have gone to your spam folder.
I saw your Father's Day post on Facebook to your father Jim and your Uncle Vince. That got me thinking about how they would feel about you cheating to qualify to run in the Boston Marathon, and then lying about it when you were caught. Would that make them proud? Would they condone cheating and lying? I highly doubt it. I wonder how it feels to know you brought shame on your family name. Rossi mats, needed to deter cheaters. To Rossi something means to cheat by cutting corners. Is that the way Jim raised you? Is that the example Uncle Vince set for you? Again, I doubt it. Unfortunately, that's the example you are setting for your step-children. At least at the end of the day, if and when they find out what you did, they will know that they are not your biological children. Cold comfort, though, when you find out the man you looked up to and called Dad was an unabashed cheater, liar and attention-whore.
When my father died, I know he was proud of me. Sure, I made some mistakes growing up, we all do. But, I grew into an honest, hard-working man. He appreciated that, and told me so when he knew he didn't have much time left. Since his death, I have done nothing that would have embarrassed him.
Likewise, when I die, I am sure my kids will be proud of me. I am what most on these boards would call a hobby-jogger, but I am a dedicated hobby-jogger. I run (jog) six or seven days a week. I got my wife into running, and now we run together many mornings and go to local races together. When we both retire in a few years, we plan to travel across the country and run in local 5k
Mike wins?
