Cook County, How are you? I have my hands full debating with a couple of these New York Fan Boys! LOL! Anyway, I kind of enjoy it. Well I agree with you, but not completely. Ricca was the former Top Boss and then became a Consigliere. That's true. However, Accardo was never the Top Boss of The Outfit. He was the #2 under Ricca, THEN he semi-retired and became co-consigliere with Ricca when Giancana became the Top Boss. Accardo then wanted Cerone to be the #2 under Giancana, but Mooney refused. That was my understanding from my Uncle.
