Ligambi is a funny character to me cause everybody calls him old school and quiet and he was during his reighn as boss but he was somewhat of a hot head before he got locked up. Theres a good article that I will have to find by Kitty Caprella in Philly.com around 99 when it came about that Uncle Joe was boss and how some people couldn't believe it. It talked about his whole life basically. You know he was the guy that slugged the FBI agent (the only guy) when the all got locked up together with Scarfo. The other guys thought he was nuts. Also, the whole Merlino/Ligambi being two seperate entities is just talk for the internet. They are cool and Joey always said Joe was like his uNcle...hence the name. I will have to try to find the article.
