The brojos have exchanged emails with Ken. They will know if he is responsible for posting Rossi's wife's personal info. If so, they might consider blocking his IP address, but who knows. If Rossi is tweeting to the world his vacation plans and such, how much privacy can he (and, by extension, his wife) expect.
Keep focusing on McKeever, Yasso, and the folks at LVM. Someone must have access to one of them. That someone needs to open a dialog and try to find out the basis for Barb's decision to not DQ Rossi. If she really didn't do any real investigation, she could come out of this looking even worse than she already does. Right now, she just looks incompetent. If she lied about doing an investigation, she would look complicit.
Rossi is tweeting his vacation plans, etc precisely because he knows Ken will bite, and it will look like all of LRC is making it personal.
Amateur trolling... Seems to me Mike has been building up bad karma for a long time until this blow up. Now that it's unravelling he's going to try to do some moral good with the exception of coming clean. Karma doesn't work that way buddy, you can't hide from it. It's obvious you are still being extremely selfish by continuing to lie. Good luck with that. Been a hot summer huh?

Rossi good father good husband. Good son. Contributes to charity by organizing memorial golf tournament. Has decent seeming people willing to go to bat for him on this insane thread. Been waiting for more to come out. Seems there is more to this guy than just this running thing. What all has come out is pretty good about him. Honestly he has conducted himself pretty good for someone in the public crosshairs. And he has borne a lot of abuse from people on this thread and internet and done so pretty well. I known I will get flamed for this but truth is I change my narrow view. I now like him.
Whether he cut the course is now between him and god as far as I am concerned.
Goodnight all.

I only speak for myself, but I never thought he was a bad guy. He cheated running a marathon, it's not the end of the world. However, you are 100% wrong if you think he conducted himself well during this fiasco.
If he's all about raising money for charity, I still can't figure out why he didn't just do that in the first place in order to run Boston. Having said that, I wish him well in his golf tournament. Honestly, I hope he raises a lot of money.
I've heard he plays a Kim Jong-Il style of golf, though. I wonder if he'll even bother playing holes 2-17.

Maybe related to the homewrecker tweet he deleted?

I believe that's also in response to the weather girl he called a "Home Wrecker". Another example of how well he's handled himself.

He didn't just start it this year , it has been an annual event since at least 2011 as far as I can tell , maybe even before that
I have sent this letter to Letsrun Admin and the Brojos. Please let them know if you share the same concerns as I do.
To Letsrun.com and the Johnson brothers,
I am writing to you and asking that you review the posts of one individual and consider banning them from posting on this site permanently.
The relevant thread is the Mike Rossi thread. While the spirit of the thread has been to expose and publicize Mike Rossi's marathon cheating, there has no doubt been hundreds if not thousands of off-color jokes and trolling - particularly at Rossi's expense. However, one individual has taken it upon themselves to post personal information about members of Rossi's family, which in my view, goes too far.
Essentially, the poster "LMR" describes the commuting route and place of work for Mike Rossi's wife: […] the IP address for the Wikipedia change seems to have been near the Glenside Train Station. My guess is the wife changed it while waiting for the train to take her into Philly for work at University of Penn Hospital…" Posted 7/28/2015 6:18PM.
The information is obviously personal and could not be easily found online (e.g. - a specific commute route). This is not the only incident in which this has happened, and I feel that if left unchecked, the individual will progressively reveal more personal information and invite harassment. Ironically, this is the type of reckless online behavior for which Mike Rossi has become infamous.
Everybody loves this site because - for better or for worse - "while we moderate the forums, one unique feature that encourages the free flow of information is if you want to be anonymous on our forums you can be." However, I feel that this poster is becoming more and more reckless with the personal information of a private person and may eventually cause harassment beyond the forums and into real life.
I cannot be 100% sure of the identity of the poster "LMR". That said, there is a good possibility that that he has also posted under the name "LoserMikeRossi" - who has identified himself as Kenneth Stillman: "Looks like I have to abandon my registered user name [LoserMikerossi] since it's being used with a lower case L in place of the i. New name is LMR. I will not be posting using the old name anymore. Anything posted under that name is not me." Posted 7/28/2015 2:47PM. If these posters are not the same, then I apologize to Mr. Stillman, but still stand by my words with respect to "LMR".
I hope that you will consider my request to review and ban this poster in order to ensure the personal security of family members is not threatened, and request that I remain anonymous as I have a family of my own and do not want to invite harassment against them. I am also posting this on the thread so as to invite feedback from others and "LMR" himself.
Thank you.
Verily, verily, I say unto thee, We speak that we do know, and testify that we have seen; and ye receive not our witness.

He has had so many warnings.
And unclean spirits, when they saw him, fell down before him, and cried, saying, Thou art the Son of God.
He answereth and saith unto them, He that hath two coats, let him impart to him that hath none; and he that hath meat, let him do likewise.
I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire:
Hi, great letter. I still read the thread sometimes and I find Ken's posts repulsive, especially this one. I reported the post and encourage others to as well. It's on page 660. Thanks.
It tis the GREAT ONE!
Gatorade&vodka, you have done so much awesomeness .... how many posts did you originally predict for your thread?
13000+?
Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.

He also posted about the pot calling the kettle black in regards to her integrity. And then said 'cheaters never prosper'
And he said, Who told thee that thou wast naked? Hast thou eaten of the tree, whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldest not eat?
