First of all, you can table the fucking sarcasm with me. Because I generally don't even post about that town. But there hasn't been a working relationship there in years. That's all I'm trying to say.

Go ask Stevie or Barney or Cefalu to name three of Ligambi's captains. See if they care. But you probably won't get an answer. Because they're too busy counting their money from the unions, and construction, and the waterfront, and all of the other traditional mob rackets that Philly has steadily been pushed out of since the '80s.

And I've never once said that the Philly mob is "dead." It's just that they are what they are: A small group content to make a middle income living off gambling.
