The singer and song aren't much, but the song's mere existence is hilarious. I wonder if Rossi will play it at one of his weddings.

Somebody really needs to call into the radio station he works at on occasion and request it.

I almost sorta, kinda feel bad for the guy, but he brought it on himself. We all make mistakes, but this was a big one and he just kept digging a deeper hole.

If you're talking about the original LR thread then seemingly nothing is happening.

I just had a quick browse through the 2 most recent pages of posts and it's all just people bitching about whether or not the people posting on the thread are secretly Mike Rossi or not.

I have off and on. Not much going on except it appears someone got Inside Edition to do a story on that Ken Stillman guy who was all over that thread. He hasn't been seen since.

I don't have an account over there but dang they have some interesting stuff.

Yea, the Inside Edition twist was funny. Almost too good to seem real. I don't think the Rossi story is over just yet.

That site exposes someone like every week. Gregory Price (Marine Marathon), the female AG WR 10 mile attempt, LA Marathon girl, etc.

That guy just lies. Claiming to have run X by yourself is different than cheating in a real race. I'm more of a fan of the cheater type, who then lies to cover it up, or in the very small minority tells the truth like Price. But they all mostly lie when caught and it's fun to watch their performance going forward.

I make fun of my wife as she watches Lifetime and Dateline each night before she goes to bed...........then I grab the laptop and track/read all of the letsrun-twitch-hunts like Rossi, Young, Lawlor, etc. I'm blown away at what people will do for attention/success/etc.

The big moral of this story, and it's very likely that he had that tough lesson, is that at the end of the day, that Boston Marathon, which you're supposed to remember for your whole life as one of your great achievements, was for him his great downfall and the source of much aggravation for him and his family I bet. Pretty sure by now he wishes he didn't cheat his way into it (would have been much better for him to pay his way in through a charity).

One would hope that would be the case.

Out of curiosity I googled "Mike Rossi Kenny Chesney" to see if any other stories had details on what happened in the Linc parking lot, and via the results came across his FB page. One of the pics he has posted, in November of 2015, shows him proudly sporting what appears to be a BAA cap.

So who knows.

Court was 2PM today; nothing yet is known about how it went

However, this post from Letsrun

Quote:
By googling the Judge's name on the court document, I discovered that he is a multi-time Boston Marathon and Broad Street Run finisher. In fact, he ran collegiately with Cecily Tynan's husband. It's going to be an interesting day.

He's fucked [unless this is one of those rare cases in Philly where the Judge decides on the merit of the law, objectively]
