He also likes to go to prison. There is that. The Bull nickname can now mean many different things.

Agreed, he's growing on me. I will say, and he would probably get super defensive about this, i dont care what he says...he absolutely has a man crush on Gotti lol.

So funny cause it's so true, bro gets truly flustered, I think one of rj's funniest moments was at minute 9:55; Gotti tapes part 11. After he asks the question he's shrugging his shoulders with an eager & shaky tone lmaoo it's the nerdiest impression he's made on me, nerdy as in the epitome of a John G fanboy. I really wonder how he became so obsessed with John. God bless him and Don Michele Dileonardo, they're my fav to watch and recommend in this thing.

. He was close to the Gotti’s so it make sense that he still has some type of loyalty to them
Even though he cooperated against Junior. I do agree that he doesn’t criticize them that much although he has in some occasions.

and i like being around like minded folks. i think michael's energy attracts folks that are similar. i enjoy that.

He rarely will talk about active guys, but it's very interesting that hes been grazing the surface of talking about Manino. Sounds like he impressed John.

A lot of the mafia is supposed to be about advocating for the guys around you so when a guy doesn't do that it stands out. Could argue that Gotti even killed Castellano in part to protect Ruggiero, his brother, and Carneglia.

That’s his greatest move. He wasn’t betraying his brothers and he knew he’d prob get whacked right after anyway. Loyalty or him just being Machiavellian and cunning? Everything after that he fumbled with all the loud shit. But what a play.

Hey!! Bobby...what up....
