Per the 10th & O gang, I've heard they are pretty powerful in their own right. I could be wrong, but I was under the impression that Phil Narducci has a bunch of those guys under his wing. He may be building a pretty powerful following in the street.
As an outsider to Philly I find that very interesting.
Don't be. Nothing will come of it. Narducci isn't that smart of a guy and is being appeased by Merlinos faction.
At one point they were floating making him acting boss, just so the heat was on him, but Merlino and his guys would ultimately be calling the shots.
Mazzone is the go between, and is calming Narducci, as Phil respects him as do many others. Joey isn't as dumb as some make him out to be.
Without Stevie, there might be a problem...of which Narducci would still come out on the losing end of.
Ask any of the people you trust on Philly and I suspect they will tell you the same
