what is your opinion of joey gallo? ive read many books on him, the best being "joey" by goddard, I think he was a moron. he always wanted everyone to know he was a ganster, played it to the hilt. always bragged about he killed albert anastaisa, went to war with profaci in 1960 never had a chance in the world of winning, things got so bad he had to shake down a twobit cashing business ran by a man named teddy moss. was convicted of extortion got 14 yrs, got out in 9, then started his hustle of how he was now into great books, and philosophy. was running around with movie stars, wanting to be on the tonight show, Colombo offered him 1000 dollars to settle up. he refused. thinking he had some power left in Brooklyn, he was all washed up he had nothing left.most soldiers hated him, and then came umbertos.
