These are great articles, keep them coming.

The contradictions are unreal. In one article, Dellacroce is the strongest mobster in the city, ready to make a power grab for Carlo's crown. Then, we have an amateur punk trying to take out Neil's crew with a machine gun in his social club. Now, we have Crazy Joe bitch smacking Neil with no consequences.

The last sentence of the article indicated that Carlo made Dellacroce accept his public humiliation because he breached mafia tradition by siding with Profaci....what?!
