This is a good question. Although Tony is obviously the boss of his crew and was elevated to "street boss," as Rusty points out, I don't think he ever "officially" assumed Uncle J's position. And Uncle J. had been subordinate to Jackie Aprile. I could be wrong, but I think Jackie was subordinate to some NYC family. So, if you do the hip-bone-connected-to-thigh-bone routine, Tony's probably subordinate to some NYC family, and thus is not a "Don" as we think of Don in the Five Families or Chicago Outfit sense.
There's an Aprile on Sopranos? I smell a copyright infringement lawsuit.
Mario's not here to claim it...I will!
I will NOW sue The Sopranos for the RIGHTS to the name Aprile, and I wil STEAL Michael Imperioli to be in one o MY Movies. I plan on making an Omerta!
Tony Soprano *pbbt* whata wiseguy!
Isn't he a Capo anyway?
No disrespect turnbull
Isn't STREET BOSS a Capo/underboss?
Wouldn't Street Boss b aki to Sonny Corleone or Peter Clemenza?
