Yes, I can take a joke. But I would point out a couple things.

First, the guys who were saying Merlino was still the boss didn't know that. It was a speculation on their part that ended up being right for once. Even a blind man is going to hit the bulls eye sooner or later.

Second, consider the fact that we wouldn't even know Merlino was the boss if it wasn't for the FBI. They received new information, they released it, and now we know. So people can hardly use this as a reason to criticize the feds, especially considering it's very much the exception to the rule.
