Dr. Thode's Tag Team Partner in the Great NIZ Debate? ... Moi
From Lehigh University, weighing in at 160 lbs, Steve (the Doctor) Thode will square off against a pro-NIZ contingent consisting of Mike (the Fleckster Wrecker) Fleck, Sara (Celtic Thunder &) Hailstone and Iannelli himself.
They don't stand a chance.
Last night, I received a desperate call from a Business Matters producer. Looks like the Bombastic Blogger, yours truly, will now serve as the Doctor's tag team partner.
One of my fans has already commented, "How can someone like you, with your baggage be a credible person on this show?"
Good point, but look at our opponents.

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
Bernie,
ReplyDeleteI taught Tony how to referee hockey, for a slight fee I'll show you how to outdebate him!
I'll bring a puck and toss it. He and Fleck will go after it.
ReplyDeleteSo Schlossberer called you so you treat him nice. You really are not qualified to speak intelligently about this topic. You base everything you do on raw emotion.
ReplyDeleteSad.
That show is a joke. Jolly Joe Timmers Polka show gets higher ratings than this Iannelli ego boost.
ReplyDeleteThe Tea Party must be happy to have one of their craziest Tea Baggers represent them. I hope this goes like the way you embarrassed yourself on the gracedale show.
ReplyDeleteThey will come to the table with facts, you will bring ideology and get destroyed. This will be entertaining!
ReplyDeleteis there room on that set for another chair? if so, i will take it. michael molovinsky
ReplyDeleteWill it air Thursday night? Let us know when we can watch. Should be interesting to those of us who actually care about the NIZ, rather than the haters who just waste time attacking you.
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone love Tony as much as Tony loves Tony?
ReplyDeleteWill Bobo and his boys be back in time from their golf outing with the crew from "lost touch with reality" LVEDC?
What a bunch of self absorbed narcissistic social miscreants. Have fun.
O'Hare vs. Hailstone talk about bringing baggage to the table. At least O'Hare is educated in his field. Last I remember Hailstone got her jobs through nepotism and politics. She does not even have formal education in her field of practice! Talk about credibility.
ReplyDeleteSee...this is why you needed to lose that weight. You look great and sadly TV adds weight. You will be great. You're informed and funny
ReplyDeleteand a little charming.
Wow what a sad comment on the state of the NIZ opposition.
ReplyDeleteGeeting, Could be much worse for the NIZ cheerleaders. You could be there.
ReplyDeleteMM, I'll call you. Maybe we could work something out.
ReplyDeleteSmall Business Dude, It will not air Thursday. we'll probably have to wait a few weeks.
ReplyDelete" You're informed and funny
ReplyDeleteand a little charming."
Flattery will get you everywhere.

ReplyDeleteActually, TI's show is pretty good. I like his self-effacing and humorous style. I don't watch TV, but catch the online broadcasts. I saw Bar Johnston on recently and thought she was a great panelist.
Can someone clear up the question of Hailstone's education? Some say she doesn't have the required education and some say she has a Masters in Public Administraion.
ReplyDeleteHailstone is well-educated, has a Master's degree and has experience as DCED Director in Scranton as well as work in the DCED for the state.
ReplyDeleteGo get them Bernie!
ReplyDeleteWord on the inside is that Geeting was asked to participate, but declined because he doesn't know where anything is in Allentown.
ReplyDeleteI hope Hailstone, Fleck and Ianelli have done their homework. They will have to answer some tough questions.
ReplyDeleteOh please, more pissing and moaning from the pissing and moaning club. Wear your teabags on your tri-cornered tin foil hats.
ReplyDeleteHeard you got sacked from this show. True??
ReplyDelete"more pissing and moaning fromt the pissing and moaning club"
ReplyDeleteNo.
I do not want to purchase ice hockey tickets to Chairman Pawlowski's magnificent $ 220.0 million dollar Palace of Sport today.
Probably not tomorrow, either.
JUST SAY NO TO THE NIZ
yep. just posted it.
ReplyDelete"wear your teabags on your tri-cornered tin foil hats"
ReplyDeleteNo.
I don't care how much you hate American history.
I just am NOT buying ice hockey tickets to Chairman Pawlowski's magnificent $ 220.0 million dollar Palace of Sport today.
And, probably not tomorrow, either.
You Cheerleaders certainly do have a funny way of trying to talk people into spending their hard-earned money.
JUST SAY NO TO THE NIZ
Bernie:
ReplyDeleteI have to comment on your name for hailstone as it is an insult to us redheded people. Maybe it should be rewritten to say giggles and jiggles or liposuction needed compliment of expense account of allentown pa. As most of us irih are trim and fit. I never heard redheaded and fatboy used in a sentence.
What degrees does Hailstone have. Bachelors and Masters in what? business? not sure that translates to Public Finance or Administration.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry, but I do not know he precise field of study. A fellow Marywood grad though that it might be business on the Bachelor's level. I don't question her qualifications or work ethic.
ReplyDeleteHas anyone goggle ponzie schem allentown pa. On one of the sites brooks llc is on it, than at another site the same amount that the arena is the title 220 mil.
