Geez Chicago i think your very well informed on the Outfit and the more you post the more I feel the outfit is becoming extinct.

This is very surprising to me as back in the day i put them close to the Columbo level in terms of strength ( I always had lucchese as a very strong family as I have some distant relatives that were in the family years ago ( Pappadio and Panica's ). It's shocking how far they have fallen but with the lack of arrests , violence and reduction in sharking / booking activities and extortion all but gone , what do they really have left outside of No Nose legit businesses . Geez even if he is a dry beefer , I bet some guys still kiss his ass just to get some scraps and eek out a middle class living .
