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

Yeah, he cheated. We all know that.

Even more embarrassing, he couldn't knuckle down and run a 20 minute 5k. C'mon, Mikey - that would have been easy.

But setting up Kenny like that? A fake game show? How much would that have cost, for which you didn't pay a penny?

In my wildest dreams, I couldn't have devised a plan like this, let alone pull it off.

Hats off to Mikey.

You are, without a doubt, the most awesome middle-aged wedding DJ, ever.

No Mike, it was an incredibly lame video that took a lot of work for very little payoff, we know Ken is a person with issues but his deceptions are orders of magnitude less than yours.

How is defrauding 80 couples (and being prosecuted by the AG) orders of magnitude less than cheating at a crap marathon?

Is this where I say "hi Ken?"

They both LIED, CHEATED and BULLIED.

Now, Ken at least openly admitted his past transgressions with the Attorney General and such on this board. However, he lied to each and everyone of us here when he said that everyone got their videos and the issues were resolved. But based on the information contained on the Inside Edition video, that is not the case. Therefore, he lied. In addition, a quick check of the county court civil cases indicated that in 2015 he had another case decided against him and wages garnished.

You can if you like, or a cursory search of this thread will show you many posts where this registered name tells Ken repeatedly to knock off his loony conspiracy theories.

So you could then invent a situation where I am Ken arguing with himself, as far as I know in this thread, you and your sockpuppets may have done that but I haven't.

I finally watched the video, and oh my, wtf? This saga just doesn't seem to ever take a predictable path, incredible. So Mike, instead of putting all his time and energy into cleaning up his disgusting actions and finally becoming a decent example of a man for his children, instead figures out how to shame a deadbeat 300lb DJ. I get the wanting revenge part Mike, but you are the last man on this planet that should be trying to humiliate anyone. You are pure pure pure scum.

And then you Kenny, to fall for something like that... shocker.

Someone said the thread was dead, Merry Xmas!

I tend to think that is what is actually going on sometimes. I do not understand why one cannot despise the conduct of both Mike and Ken. But to some on here it is K v M and to mention K is be seen as supportive of M. As if anything anyone could do could detract from someone being named Phillys biggest loser in the newspaper.

So: hi Mike and Ken and Ken and whoever

Still hoping for Ken to say it ain't so. Although I guess he already said it and what he said wasn't so. What is in the water in Pennsylvania? Seriously Ken Mike and the American women's 10 mile attempted? Crazy stuff.

Ken is quite clearly someone who needs help and it would seem took money under false pretences then was untruthful about what subsequently took place, but that it utterly irrelevant to a discussion about cheating in races on a running forum. To reiterate I could understand how someone got in over their head (or level of competence) in business but not how someone sets out twice (that we know about) to intentionally cheat in races then behave fairly despicably when called out on it.

Mike loves taking advantage of those he thinks are weaker than himself, makes him feel like a Big Man, very important to a has-been narcissist.

Now what Mike? Drown some kittens? Throw some puppies off a bridge?

When I listen to the victims of Ken and his fraud I have no sympathy for him.

When I see Mike made fun of here and online I have no sympathy for him.

It is very simple. If you lie cheat and steal, then you'd better expect to get treated the way you've treated others.

Ken isn't even a runner and he has no interest in marathon cheating. He's said this before. He was only here because he hates Mike for personal reasons and he also stalked people and bullied others.

Maybe now that Ken and and Mike have been publicly humiliated their children will be ashamed of them and the circle of deceit will stop with them. That is the only upside to this ridiculous situation.

This was never about Ken. That is Mike and your attempts to deflect from Mike Rossi, Philly's #1 Loser.

It is about the lying, cheating, narcissistic psychopath scumbag that is Mike Rossi. And for the rest of his life we are not going to let him forget it. So move along if you don't want to watch this parade of shame. Because Mike is going to be outed time and time again. He never knows when a wedding is going to be a setup, or a party a nationally televised candid camera. Oh Mike, you have no idea.

Or you can run a 3:11:45 and collect $200k. We'll make sure ABC and NBC are there to shame the formerly respected CBS. Better yet, friends at Fox.

Because you never did it and never will.

Moron Mike. King of the Losers. Pud of the Year. Legend.

Ken made himself a part of the story and you know it.

He deserves to be shamed.

You know you can hate more than one fraud at once, right?

How does Ken being brought to account deflect from Mike and his cheating?

It makes the story richer, and I'm sorry for diluting the focused and concentrated thread of 21k posts (mostly about Twitter posts and pictures these days).

Don't take this shit so seriously. Ken and Mike are scum and the world is ISA better place when they andre pressured. I hope Ken can pay those people back and Mike can and admit what he is done.

Stop being Ken's minion.

Time to get on the editing machine.

Hi Mike! Time to put up or shut up, $200,000 and not a peep. What are you so scared of? Easy money and you can't even make a 5k attempt. What a loser...and one that has been certified. No FB. No Twitter. No Athlinks.

Genius!

Ha ha.

Well it certainly ain't truth serum.

I haven't wandered into this thread for a few months, so forgive me for asking: did Mikey really cheat at another race?

Before or after this poop blizzard hit?

This whole saga is becoming too bizarre to actually believe.

Mike Rossi ‏@mikerossi22 · 3h3 hours ago  Philadelphia, PA

Big surprise coming soon for an ol' friend. #tickTock

Funny, just found this old post containing a tweet from our hero. It was almost exactly a month to the day that Inside Edition filmed the bogus non story on Ken. Does anyone really believe Mike wasn't the push behind this story?

Wow! Mike got Inside Edition to do an expose on a some guy who is behind on delivering wedding videos. The 30 or so people who actually saw the report must be outraged. This rivals the Watergate investigation.

If your great aspiration in life is to be an a$$hole, then Mike, you are winning!

Wait ! , hold on a second , you think that only 30 or so people watch a nationally syndicated tabloid news program ? Yet think that more than that read this thread or RW magazine ? Even runners I know don't read that trash . I know for a fact that this LR thread has not affected Rossi's business , nor his home life . It's purely wishful thinking on the participants and posters on this thread that Rossi's life is miserable . You should all check your Ritalin . He reads this thread and continually mocks all of you by changing his Twitter pic . He shuts down his Twitter because it pisses you all off that you can't stalk him . He doesn't even need Twitter . Now I can't say if he had anything to do with the I.E. tv program , but if he did then Bravo ! Well played . Stillman ruined himself years ago , but his choice to take part in this thread when he knows nothing about running nor cares to learn was because he can't compete with Rossi on a business level , and that's Stillmans fault for ripping off 83 brides . Look at Stillmans Twitter . Nothing ! Hey would any of your daughters hire Ken after a little social media research and looking at his Twitter and the filth he was spewing daily on that ? All Stillman ever had was this board , he has NOTHING else . And as far as this fantasy that Rossi's life has been somehow shattered because of this thread , LMAOOOOOO !!! When he was posting on his Twitter all I saw was a guy living it up . Myrtle Beach Condo , it's not a time share he owns you fools . House up in the poconos , again he OWNS it , thriving DJ and Wedding business that consistently burys the competition in value and volume , His kids are A students, and they have a ton of friends including the parents of a lot of their kids , didn't any of you see all the fun activities he invites them all on , limos to concerts , 76'ers basketball games, Disney on Ice trips , Water Park trips , Rossi is well liked by a lot more people than you all want to believe . The one thing this thread tried to do , get him DQ'd from a race failed . And even tho you all presented your theories and conspiracists ideas , a lot of other people besides Rossi had and still have our daily dose of entertainment reading this , all this thread did do tho was expose Ken as the loser he really is , and also exposed Tynan as a home wrecker , and don't think she goes anywhere either without women knowing what she did , the word is a lot bigger with a lot more people in it than a few hundred runners
