Merlino still would of won eventually he had most of the young cats around he almost flat out Killed Stanfa in the expressway shootout that left Stanfa's son a bullet in the cheek! I think Merlino would of won or NY wd of said enough and step in.. Merlino was more of a ballsys dare devil..

Its not that everybody is on Joey's Nuts! U kno there so interested in him Young Cocky kid has da Balls to take out Scarfo's Son But acorse JR lives! Has da balls to rip off Scarfo's Street Tax!! Flashy Celbrity Gangster I thinks that's what ppl like about him!! Mayb The Merlino Stanfa War gets avoided if Joey doesn't get locked up wanna say late 89 early 90 on that stealing big bag of Money charge or whatever NY Names Stanfa Boss but Merlino is his Underboss or something I dk!!! Mayb Shit cd of been diff!!! Those young turks wanted some say in da Family after Scarfo went to jail Started shit wit everyone even.. The young Turks today wd not of been happy if Stanfa stayed boss.. So the war wd of went on until someone got killed or someone got locked up!!

Why are you bothering? If Cook County ever had a rational thought it would die of loneliness.

I am not so sure Merlino would have won. Maybe Stanfa wasn't a good boss, but still the fact remains Merlino didn't manage to actually kill even one of Stanfa's men (at least the murders he was charged with weren't related to this specific war, as far as I know). He only tried to, but always failed. Maybe, had the feds given Stanfa more time, he would have been serving an additional (sixth) life sentence for Merlino's murder now.

Stanfa's daughter was supposed to be a hot piece of ass back in the day. She may have even been the direct cause of one or two hits because of horny wiseguys acting like baboons.
