Ok, I've uploaded a new animated gif with the new bib spottings, and included bib 2161 finish line photo with caption 'not spotted' at the very end.

If someone can figure out how to convert and upload an animated gif to youtube, please go ahead and post the URL here.

Has anyone put this on youtube yet? I can't seem to get to grips with this dropbox stuff.

Got to grips with the dropbox thingy and gotta say awesome work. A youtube video would be even more awesomer.

By the way, I think he cheated, 100% convinced, and, 100% convinced he's a scumbag for all the reasons mentioned in the previous 5000 odd posts.

A few pages ago I urged him to repent, and all would be well. I take that plea back. I'm now convinced that Mike Rossi is not only reading this thread, but posting on it a lot, and also using his social media to taunt runners. A while ago his fb profile pic was his Boston t-shirt, now it's a picture of medals hanging under a sign that says "always earned, never given". So he's having as much fun with this as anyone else - pulling our chain, and laughing at the reaction. I even noticed that some posts here have the same style of grammatical errors that are on his fb.

He might as well. He's shown last September to not care about the running community, so why not fvck with us. He will never repent.

Mike Rossi is a cheater and a scumbag.

Bro you gonna be checking my fb page out so much at least like my pics!

No respect I tell ya.

Whoa did your time machine get stuck in the 90's?

Can you bring me a VHS copy of Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure?

I need it for my collection.

Yep. Sooner or later this is the only conclusion any reasoning human being can arrive at. Not sure it would be called "fun" by us. More like S&M self-flagellation by Mike.

I count 77 screen names accused if being MR on this thread with 1432 posts to their credit. I count 24 claiming to be MR with 126 posts from them.

Between the accuses and claimants that is over 100 posters and over 1558 posts.

Just incredible.

Also the posting has actually accelerated over last few days. Expected it to slow down but now it is en fuego.

It won't be so funny when couples who have already booked East Coast Event Group start requesting any other DJ but Mike Rossi. And couples who have just gotten engaged are warned by their maid of honor, who is a teacher, to start away from that company.

And when business starts slowing down his boss will have no choice but to fire him. Going from "father of the year" to "douchebag of the year" is really bad press for a company that relies heavily on word of mouth and referrals.

I predict in 3 months his boss will let him go and Mike will be spinning it as if he's leaving to start his own company. Blah blah blah. We'll all know it's a lie.

And how tolerable will his wife be when they are getting behind on the mortgage and all he had to do to prevent it was hold a press conference and apologize.

Lance apologized and he's only got one ball. How many balls do you have, Mike?

It's gone. Did you get a screen shot?

How can someone live with themselves knowing they're a fraud?

Unfortunately the public isn't educated when it comes to marathon times and basic exercise physiology, and what's worse is that the NBC Philly article that came out clearing him of cheating will mean that people will believe Rossi and not the educated running community. People who are part of Rossi's target market are probably not very well educated when it comes to advanced marathoning and exercise physiology. There are a lot of fatties at most wedding parties.

Quite happily . . . I am drinking a beer, laughing with friends, enjoying life.

Sorry you're mad bro.

-Michael Rossi

There are a lot of fatties, but there ar also a lot of hot chicks and muscular guys trying to bang them. And they run. And if there is a teacher anywhere in the family they probably invite all their favorite friends from work. Does anybody on here NOT know somebody who is a teacher or works for the school district in some capacity?

I don't think you completely understand how widespread this is.

Maybe he'll turn all this publicity to his own advantage. Once the East Coast Event Group, that was the EAST COAST EVENT GROUP in case you missed it, for being a liar and a cheater, he will team up with the race photographers from the LVM to start his own company. He will DJ the weddings and the photographers will guarantee to take photos of every guest that attends. Well, almost every guest.

You are delusional if you think anybody outside of this forum really cares.

Hi myself

Interesting, here is a race recap from the 2014 LVM from a runner who trained more per week than our cheater friend Mike Rossi, but actually ran the marathon and struggled because of the humidity...

She ran a 4:00:38 which is faster than Mike Rossi would have done it had he actually ran!
