True, but one could also argue that the only reason Tieri was successful was Bruno didn't keep the guys in his family happy enough, giving Tieri the opening..

THAT was Bruno's fault....


@ Furio


I think hoodlum is right, if Carlo was alive, the Gambinos woulda got all of AC, giving up a taste to BRUNO SPECIFICALLY' probably at the expense of the other soldiers, kinda like the Cherry Hill Gambino deal.
If a family like the Genovese woulda made a stink, it goes to the table and basically goes like this; Bruno says' "It's my territory, I gave Carlo permission to operate", the Genovese object, they say okay let's vote. The other bosses back Carlo, thus they back Bruno. The Genovese ( probably Tieri) are seething silently, plotting, lol
