Special to The Tribune
HARLINGEN, Texas - The word in the streets is that Blogger Tony Chapa finally saw the writing on the wall. It helped that nearly everyone in this community's 74,000 residents grabbed him by his ear and walked him to the computer screen. Chapa's demise has been coming for months.
"Tony has bitten into a humble empanada," said one resident who characterized Chapa's loss admission as being the best thing that has happened to this struggling community all yearlong. "Now, he knows he is Number 2, and it has to be eating him up. But that's what he is, Mr. Doormat, the guy standing with his back to the wall at the dance."
No one disputes the fact that MyLeader News, edited by former newsman Jerry Deal, now rules the local Blogosphere. "The very fact that Chapa is posting comments on MyLeaderNews says it all," said another resident familiar with both men. "I expect Tony Chapa to soon announce that he is shutting down his silly Blog any moment now."
The defeat is startling, said others. "Tony had a chance to give the city a respectable, reliable Blog, but he chose to feed his own giant-sized ego, which is hilarious because Chapa is a short, short man," the observer went on. "All he had to do was say he'd blown it a few weeks ago, and that he would be doing things at a higher level. His ego got the best of him..."

Man, you guys are burying Tony Chapa. cut the poor fool some slack. The clown has had it coming we know. Too bad he's a Mexican.
No one knows where he is from, some say he is from Nicaragua, others say he is from Mexico, he says, he is from Austin, others say, he is from Jupiter, others say, he is a woman in disguise, others say, he doesn't exist.
We don't know what he is.
He runs a blog, where he post, paste and cut statemenst from other sources.
He/She calls himself a credible news outlet.
He is blogging on Deals blog, to get feed back.
The editor of this blog helped him out last Summer, because the writing was on the wall.
When he can't argue an issue, he resorts to name calling. Well, when he is behind the key board. Out on the street he is chicken man.
I don't want to sound sarcastic, but there is a resemblance between Toni Chapa and Tony Chapa, the nose, the mouth, the shoulders,with the exception of the hair. Look closely to the lady on the tub and the man with the leg on the chair. He does look like her. huh!!!!
I am not a wagering man, but maybe he is a she. Now a days, you never know. 8 comments on some lame story about the hpd, six were from his/her chick and Toni/Tony.
ANONYMOUSES:...Well, we have heard that Tony Chapa's Blog is the most hated in the Valley. His readers have abandoned ship. It is said that he slumps over his computer keyboard, wondering where he went wrong. Can a man push onward a One-Man Plague? He's toxic as a Blogger, the town's shunned Movida... - Editor
Hey, I like that song, by los alegres de Teran, I thought those guys were dead, my grandfather use to buy albums. Back in the 1950's.
Happy to announce, that he has had one comment in about 3 days. And it was an article written by a minister.
Dear Santa, please send toni/tony chapa and my harlingennews to Siberia, Santa also send his girlfriend Jakey with him, if you do I won't drink for a year. I promise.
Tonee, is like a roach, he won't go away, sorry anony. But his blog has gone to the moon.
He doesn't get it, no one likes him.
