I want to see which guys had the most clout and final say. Its a interesting discussion. Anyone know?




That's a controversial topic. I think It depends on the time period.

However, I recently found this newspaper article that featured bugged conversations between Pussy Russo and Angelo Sica.

At one point Russo says:
"When they made Andy (Gerardo), first the Old Man (Ruggerio Boiardo) tried to push it through, through Funzi, to make it, to make the kid (Tony Boiardo) acting caporegime. Benny Squint, which is the real boss, knocked it down. He said forget about it. Fat Tony knocked it down."
