I dont know how in the world Reynolds would of been made. He was a drug user and I'm not so sure he was an earner. A lot of these guys were thugs, doing high risk strong arm shit that usually results in a very short lived career. Most were basically used by guys like Spero who i dont believe ever had any intention of making any( most) of those guys. A guy like Patera who was a maniac was methodical and made a lot of money. He was also disciplined unlike Reynolds and Calco. Sure Reynolds stood up but still, is he the guy you could rely on????
Most of those guys come across as being unstable and too interested in impressing and making a name for themselves. Most guys get made by being earners and are noticed that way. casso is a good example.
