I've met friends and colleagues for coffee hundreds of times and it's always been before 9 AM. How is only agreeing to meet before 9 AM being elusive?
I made a reference to Animal House quote and put his name and the Race Directors in it. Do some searching. His lawyer called this site. Banned my IP address. Enough said.
Second, Rossi will only meet after 9 a.m. M-F. I would prefer not to wait until after 9 a.m., that is not to say I won't, but his offer was only middle of last week and I was already busy Thurs and Frid. I suggested anytime Sat or Sun and he said no. It is only Tuesday now.

1425 posts and rest of day to go so about 142/150 posts per day
prediction:
June 20: 7000 posts
June 25: 7500 posts
July 1: 8000 posts
August 1: 9000 posts
September 1: 9500 posts
September 12-15 Lehigh Marathon 2015 race weekend: 10000 posts
so:
6/15 am: 6425
6/16 am: 6683
Net Posts: 158
this would accelerate the timetable for 10000 posts a bit:
158 a day through end of June would be 2370
so 6683 + 2370 = 9053 on July 1
I think this will slow down, but it shows no signs of deceleration in quantity, serious deceleration in quality.
just curious, what do you think could slow this thread down?
a confession would ignite it, lack of a confession seems to fuel it, the passage of time seems to make it stronger, the thread appears to be a living sentient being or artificial intelligence that has become self-aware
I would not be surprised if the thread has learned how to post on itself, soon it will be posting on other threads, then other sites,
I think this is how SKYNET has started and the rise of the machines is imminent, this thread is SKYNET and we are all doomed

It is simple.
I have evolved as a troll.

I think a confession would lead to a crazy week or so. But soon after, it would die down.

This thread truly defies logic. The only thing that could slow this thread down is if the moderators locked it and even that might not do the trick.

Why didn't you take up Rossi's offer of meeting at Starbucks in Abington? He said he'd show you his MRI and training log.
Guess you just want to keep the personal vendetta going, eh Michael?
MIKE - I do not have a personal vendetta against you as I do not know you. There is nothing in my post history to support your assertion so I urge you to retract that. I believe someone else here who knows you has on, but I unequivocally do do not. I am not making nor have I made disparaging remarks about your physical appearance, wife, children, professional life or business. None - Never. I do not care for those comments.
I did however lay out and summarize facts surrounding this fiasco as they are known right now. At times, I have referenced visual proof (or lack thereof) and other information to support those facts. You are also free to provide whatever proof you have to counter any and all "facts" in the public domain. However, you have elected not to. If your information proves to be true and can substantiated, I will say so. If you care to correct any facts, please feel free to share them now.
Also, you said to me that you would present to me photos that were given to you by LVM Committee, did you not? So when we meet at Starbucks (I want the largest Latte possible), please be sure to have those photos with you, because quite honestly, those to me are the most important piece of evidence there is. You also mentioned GPS logs so bring those too. But hey, here is a novel ideal. POST THEM RIGHT HERE. Right now!
As for meeting you, I am happy to and as I recall you indicated that I could bring anyone I wanted to. As you may also recall, I indicated that when you offered to meet me, I was not available after 9 am on either of last Thurs or Friday and you indicated that Sat or Sun were not good for you. I do not work at nights, but I am an early riser and in the office at 6:30 a.m. every morning when in town. I am a morning person for work and an evening runner. I do not have the luxury to wait until after 9 am on a weekday to meet you. If you care to make it earlier or perhaps at a lunch time and I can arrange for someone to accompany me, I am happy to meet you. Right now, I am not in Pennsylvania which is why I can post here (food fight, lol), but it is hard to meet when not in town. Some of us really do work.
Still waiting for a reply to the above Mike Rossi.

A confession and apology to the school principal and I would stop posting immediately. Then I would just bring it to the media attention so that everyone knows a another bully did not go unpunished.

Her lack of support has been a glaring omission to everyone during this whole thing, and perhaps there is something going on that needs closer examination. Mike bullied a school principal, so it's not unthinkable what he might be doing to his own family.
Cindy Rossi is the key to solving this story.
She must have noticed the difference between her husband running 2 miles (and driving the rest) and her husband actually running a marathon.
I am sure she knows that he has cheated.
And someone who cheated to BQ and ruined the life of a principal is very likely to abuse or to commit fraud in other aspects of life. Cindy must know about this.

I need to know wrote:

Not at all. My sister hated my ex-wife way before we ever got divorced. In fact my ex showed her true colors after she almost died in 2010. And then everybody in my family hated her. And after we divorced I told them everything and then even HER family hated her and kicked out.
We all just refer to her as "the succubus" now.

Agreed. Possibly minor national news article, an occasional reference here as an epic thread, and rossi-ing something may have some wings. Still, the best possible outcome for all. But no freaking way does Mike Rossi admit to his lies and cheating.

Can you just stick to his running, training, his race times, the lack of photos and other direct evidence. Stop the personal attacks. Reach out to some of the other runners as they are being very cooperative. Stop with bullying of the principal. The issue for this runner board is whether he ran the race, is time is inaccurate, why he won't provide the pictures he has, why the Committee threw him under the bus with their nonsensical statement.

Ken, a majority of us are on your side regarding the cheating. You need to lay off the making an example of him regarding bullying and the name calling. You are making yourself look can't stick up for yourself and acting like an ass. Chill out a bit. If Mike came clean, it would be the best thing for him and this thread. It would buzz for a day or two and then fade away. Unfortunately, MR keeps throwing gas on the fire, and most people like big fires.

I'll say it again -- Mike can find an "easier" way out. He can ask the LVM to DQ him. He will issue a statement saying "I know what I did that day. I also appreciate LVM's decision. I look forward to my next race".
Guilty without saying "I'm guilty"

Who is worse?
Kip Litton or Mike Rossi?
Kip is quite disturbing, likely mentally ill . . .
http://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2012/08/06/marathon-man?currentPage=all
I think Rossi is more of a loser . . . but then again, his posts on this thread suggest some type of mental illness.
Both are a disgrace to this country.

So his alternatives are:
1. Apologize again to school principal, confess something (cheating and lying for months?), and maybe further humiliation in the media, but some guy on a message board will stop posting.
2. Status quo but some guy keeps posting on a message board.
Hmmm..., hard choice.
