In "mafia prince", Phil Leonetti speaks about how after Bruno was murdered, Genoveses toyed with the idea of making Scarfo the boss of the borgata. Phil says that Nicky turned it down, stating that Chicken Man deserved it more. Now based on public understanding of Nicky Scarfo, the guy wasn't happy til he was boss. Do you guys think he could really have been content to be Testas consigliere, or was he saying "no" to the top job after Bruno's murder just a way to deflect and/or "bide his time" until such a date when he could whack out Testa and take over?
