In Season 5 EP 13 can anyone explain why Silvio says without saying paulies name that hes got a beef with tony about his decisions when in fact it was almost everyone else but him? Vito, Larry boy, Patsy and even Eugene all say something bad about how Tony is handling the current situation. I didn't once hear him say anything about Tony. The dialouge goes like this, not exact tho (Silvio)"It's not just the younger guys, some of the older guys too, that have been here since the beginning, since before the beginning when they worked for your father" (Tony) "What Paulie?" (Silvio) "Ahh im not saying any names" It's almost as if he deliberately wanted Tony to think it was Paulie, even tho it wasnt him. Is there a beef with Sil and Paulie or something?

they're definitely not the best of buddies anymore. Tony and Silvio both know Paulie was telling Johnny Sack about all his problems with Tony. Silvio seems kinda paranoid too about gradually losing the number 2 spot to christopher and he knows paulie would love to be the number 2 also. If you really wanna see the start of everything watch episode 12 in season four silvio and paulie get in each other's faces at the bada bing.

There is a beef going back to when Paulie was mad at Tony for the lack of support in jail. Remember that paulie was chatting up Johnny sack and became stand offish with Tonys crew. He got back in good standing with Tony when He robbed That old lady's house and took her money.(great sceen prior to the murder). I dont think It will ever be the same with Sil and Paulie. Silvio is like a wash women running to Tony with gossip. He was with out a doubt trying to get Tony to think it was Paulie
