For so many year's Angelo Bruno low key style was the template for stability. Nicky Scarfo comes into power, vindictive and blood thirsty & greedy. Old School guys get killed. Good stand up guys who understand the life are slaughtered. Not a Rat among them. The goofs who killed for Scarfo (Grande, Leonetti, Yogi Merlino, Caramandi, Milano, etc. ALL RAT ! Scarfo choose quanity over quality and it destroyed the family. Stanfa was a zip who would have been better off if he had a crew of zip's not the junkie's and rat's that he made. Natale was out of touch with the young guy's and deceided that he owed them nothing and rolled over. Since the early 90's the NYC families all have major LE problem's. Truthfully if it was not for George Anastasia the Philly's would have been almost forgotten !

wise old owl sat on a oak , the more he heard the less he spoke , the less he spoke the more he heard , wasn't that a wise ole bird.
