Mike Rossi hits "rock bottom", vows to "become a better person" after being arrested for "simple assault" of woman

Enough is enough.

Yes, this guy is a total cheat and deserved to be called out. But this has gone too far. His ego has been crippled and all of these things are weighing heavy on him. Violence and agression is self hatred gone outward.

I am even more sorry he has children but the fact of the matter is he does. For their sake, you 20-somethings to 50-somethings in your mom's basement holding pitch forks and torches on this mega witchhunt spun out of control should back off some. He cheated. But the continued life of this thread is turning evil. Rossi is either checking this thread or knows the thread exists so he is feeling completely under fire right now and in a rougher patch than we know. Those of you pulling up old court records and stuff you are reopening this guys wounds. Enough. Nobody wins in a courtroom. Not the perpetrator, not the victim. Everybody loses. We dont know those stories and those stories' backstories. Obviously there is a lot of trauma and self harm. We dont know the root of the cause. Trust me, we dont know it deep down there is one because hurt people hurt people.

Let it go and take your amusement somewhere else before he does something more drastic. I am up for a couple of jabs and pokes but this has turned inhumane. You will feel guilty if he does. This is a human being with kids we are talking about. I dont think he deserves a second chance at marathoning or to redeem himself on letsrun. He is a cheat. But if he is the way he is right now he isnt going to be the way he needs to be for dependents in his life. He deserves a chance to be that or we've continued the problems onto them. They've done nothing.

Peace.

As I clearly stated, many of you on here probably have worse rap sheets, but you're anonymous.

He cheated in a marathon and tried to make a principal look really bad because he didn't like her original email. Basically, he was sticking it to her and posted it for support (yet those who supported him didn't know that he wasn't being completely honest). He allegedly hit a woman???? Let the law handle it.

You guys aren't smart enough to realize that he's living his own nightmare everyday and that even those close to him don't believe he ran the full marathon that day (they can do research as well). He's close to being a hobby jogger and there's nothing wrong with that---except that he toted himself as being way better.

It's all been rehashed.

I stated that whoever claims pictures will be released is lying, and I believe he or she is in fact lying. They haven't released them because WHY? Talk about making up excuses, you guys lie as much as you claim he does. Sure, you've got solid evidence and you've been sitting on it for how long? BS fellas and you're falling for it, not me.

By all means, do an IP check, contact the moderators. I'm the same poster yet you guys are the ones who are changing handles trying to push this guy to the edge. If he ever harmed himself, you guys would have major guilt. Stating facts is fine, but involving his wife and kids is too far, aka overboard. He cheated in a marathon. If it's out there and everyone knows it, why continue on? The law will take care of whatever happened at the Concert, it's not in your hands.

What is it with "all" these people writing ridiculously long posts calling for everyone to lay off? Pretty transparent IMO...

In what universe does anyone care enough about a cheat/loser/woman-hitter enough that they must expend so much energy "defending" them?

To you and the others picking apart my post, no, I am not Mike Rossi. I dont know Mike Rossi. I dont want to know Mike Rossi. I dont live near Mike Rossi. I dont want to message Mike Rossi. I am not even sticking up for Mike Rossi. I am proudly not like Mike Rossi. If he hits women he is terrible. No room for any sympathy from me but could acknowledge he is still human, needs to figure it out and walk away. The only thing I am saying is we are kicking down a dead horse and to leave it alone. Do you really want this guy dead? Really. If not by suicide by doing something more irrational to himself and maybe others too? Maybe he'll drink himself to a slow death or crash a car while under the influence. Maybe he'll be one of the types to hold his kids hostage that you see periodically in the news. Then keep it up. When that day comes you can be proud that you helped push him over the edge. Put yourself in his shoes. If I were him, screwed up this bad and read this thread I'd be wasted and passed out in an alley somewhere shortly afterward. Then who knows what cumulative mindset I'd be in tomorrow after blacking out before 12-1pm today. Pathetic but that's more than likely the state he is in. Maybe he'd beat his kids too. That's my empathy for the situation and why we shouldnt collectively do things like this thread at LRC. His life is already ruined and he is in a major downward spiral. I have said my piece.

+1 here. Also a registered user that posted some in the original thread. At this point, just wait one more week and see what happens. No sense in continuing to give Mr. Rossi attention, because in some sick way I think he still thrives off this. What is worse is when no one cares or pay attention to him.

Let the facts come out next Monday. Something described as a "domestic incident" doesn't look good, but it could easily be that Cindy and some other woman got into it over comments made to her/Rossi and Rossi couldn't help himself but to throw a punch at the other woman. I mean can you imagine what he must hear every time he shows his face? I think of The Princess Bride, and "to the pain".

"WRONG. Your ears you keep and I'll tell you why. So that every shriek of every child at seeing your hideousness will be yours to cherish. Every babe that weeps at your approach, every woman who cries out, "Dear God! What is that thing," will echo in your perfect ears. That is what "to the pain means." It means I leave you in anguish, wallowing in freakish misery forever."

The ridicule will forever echo in his perfect ears. That's his life.

What are you talking about? The dislike for Rossi hasn't changed in years and has been largely fueled by him. Rossi has time and time again responded to posts on LRC by posting on his own social media with threats and insults (making it abundantly clear he was reading and posting on LRC). He even went on to engineer his own special revenge on Ken (RIP), which he was intensely proud of. It really seems like he enjoys bullying and hurting weaker people. But, now you want us to believe that has all changed? Now, suddenly, because he has been charged with punching a woman he has radically changed how he responds to posts on here and we are now to believe that people posting about his lying, cheating and criminal offences will make him have to get drunk and pass out in an alley? It won't just make him vindictive and mean anymore? Right.

If Rossi is currently suffering in any way, and there is no evidence to support that assertion, it would surely be because he has been charged with punching a woman (who may be his wife) and not because of anything the "12 trolls" are posting. the 12 trolls he has been bashing for years.

BTW - did you intervene to ask Mike to stop insulting Cecily? What about when he was calling the the man who had lost a leg names? The teacher? Ken's son? Ken? The triathlete guy? Did you stand up to Mike and try to help out the people he was attacking? No? You're just here to show sympathy and support for the guy accused of punching a woman? Interesting.

Very good post. It really sums up his sordid outlook and calls into question this "anonymous" poster and his or her connection, motivation and vested interest.
