6425 posts on 6/15

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.

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.

Since Rossi will not show the evidence that he has because it will violate National Security laws, and I live in the same neighborhood, Rossi offered to meet me to show my his treasure trove of evidence.

Really?

About what kind of evidence is he talking?

Is your ex-wife still friends with your sister?

And what would be the reason behind Mike's wife not talking him off from the ledge and just telling him to stop taking to reporters and going on the news. You'll notice that Cindy Rossi isn't quoted or seen in a single news story or interview. If she was so supportive of this letter and the viral sensation her husband turned out to be why did she NOT ONCE stand behind her man?

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.

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 . . .

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.
