Bumping in honor of Mike on a Boston Marathon Monday.
Bumping in honor of Mike on a Boston Marathon Monday.
It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, and comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.
PHILLY TO BOSTON BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mike,
Congrats on one year since embarking on the road to Philly's Biggest Loser and role-model for narcissist d-bags worldwide.
Mike - if you tune in now you'll be able to see how real girls run. Have an awful day and go ahead and try to post under my handle again you fraud.

It turns out the WRONG script was used in the (if)famous Rossi glory video. Instead of the version above, the following is the correct version:
It is not the lazy race director who counts; not the basement troll who points out how the slightly chubby slowpoke waddles, or where the cheater of races could have cut the course shorter. The credit belongs to the fraud who is actually taking the place of a legitimate qualifier in the arena, whose face is marred by a smarmy grin and sweat from too many layers; who strives valiantly; who errs, and comes short again and again, because there is no cheating without intent and shortcoming; but who does actually set out to do the scummy deeds; who knows the great humiliations, the great self-deceptions; who spends himself in a dishonest cause; who at the best knows in the end the phony emptiness of unearned “achievementâ€, and who at the worst, when he fails, at least fails publically, so that his place amongst losers is eternal and shall never be with those real runners who know both dignity and achievement.
Relive last years GLORY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TzhW4YAVqxo
BAA zeroing in on Duckster Rossi. My BAA clothing going back to 1998 is still stained with the stench of Rossi.
I imagine Mike would've been wearing tights, jacket, gloves and a winter hat this morning. Gotta keep those tender tween muscles warm. "Must make it to the nearest medical tent"
+1
Awesome.

It's really too bad Mike was not in this year's race. With this heat he would've run close to 3hr and pulled off a stellar performance like at VIA.
But on a serious note, he probably would have had a heart attack out there and not finished. It was a nice and cool day last year and he had to stop for medical assistance several times, image today.
Nice one!
Was kind of interesting seeing how all of the recent media attention, hit after hit, lead to another one of tiny mike's breakdowns (stealing handles, weird name calling, etc.). He has all this anger toward LRC and the 12 basement trolls as though they are somehow to blame for all of the bad press he's getting, it's just dumb. That guy is totally devoid of personal responsibility in his life.
Guess what tiny mike? All of the bad press etc. is nobody else's fault but your own. You did this. You are the one who choose to cheat at a marathon and then use that cheating time to fraudulently get your way into Boston. Your misplaced anger has only ever made things worse for you. Still, it's been a lot of fun, you are the modern day fool - I wish they had a boston marathon hat that came with bells, would be perfect for you. Just think how your waddle would make the bells jingle!
First he blamed it on Cecily, then he got slapped down and turned his attention to Ken. After he threw him under the bus he thought the bad press would magically stop. Now it's all our fault. He can blame us if his kids turn out to hate him for being a lying cheating scumbag.

It is all Mike fault. Had he not cheated no one on this board would have given any attention to a truly unremarkable hobby jogger like Mike Rossi.
With an equally unremarkable social media following. He's been struggling to stay above 810 followers for months now. Time to befriend another wave of pornbots. Not to worry though Mike, some of the basement trolls that follow you won't let you down.

Fantastic!
Well I didn't get my 3:11:45 but I still crushed Mikey's 2016 time by over 45 minutes. It's perfect that he still gets tossed around in all of these articles even though he is made to lie low.
Lie low? He's literally lying underneath his kid's bed today, afraid to go out. By not getting DQed, Mike further pissed off the running community and now lives in purgatory. He will keep getting honored in the press and here with every cheater story that comes out.

For the thousands who worked so hard to run in today's marathon:

"I pulled my kids out for something that's a once-in-a lifetime opportunity to see me race in Boston. They saw how hard I worked to get there. I think it's just such a great life lesson," he said.
"When they're playing soccer and they want to quit halfway through, you don't quit, you stick with it. I wanted to lead by example. They knew I was injured. They would ask me, 'Daddy, do you think you're going to be able to finish?'" he said. "This was like the final exam for that in this whole semester of learning, so to speak. I would do it all again a million times."
