Of course that was never the issue here but keep saying it is.

It's a new morning in America... fresh, vital. The old cynicism is gone. We have faith in our leaders. We're optimistic as to what becomes of it all. It really boils down to our ability to accept. We don't need pessimism. There are no limits.

1) we all read Capeci's retracted story that said Amuso was the Boss. BUT if people on here don't want to agree with that and say he is boss in name only and have a discussion with others on their opinions on that. That is their right and what the forum is for. IF you and WG have a problem with that and feel the need to cut and paste shit we all read then you need to move to another thread and get over it. No one is handing out trophies on most knowledgeable in LCN matters or who saves the most amount of LCN info in their hard drives.... We appreciate that you guys build the charts in that section but this area is for open discussion and opinions on matters.
2)... Our discussion was who was really running the show on the street. And since the article said it was Matty and he was going away it lead to it having to be Crea and who we think is street boss etc. It was simply to discuss opinions on the unkown? Who is running the Luchese family on the outside and if its Matty who will fill his shoes in 3-4mos. ... That's it.
Open forum fella's Lighten up. No one is looking for a publishing deal here.

But of course that never the discussion here. Anyone can go back to the beginning of this thread to see that you are twisting things around.

Not really pal. Like I said we all read the Ganglands same as you. Our right to not agree if we like. Regardless Open forum if you don't agree...move on..

Re: Gangland:5/28/15
Pogo see above. You are chimming in on someones "opinion" again. Again adding some tid bits from a gangland article WE HAVE ALL READ. Poster has made it clear they don't agree but you cant let it go. EVER. They are free to do so without foot notes from an indictment or Gangland. Let it go you are talking the fun out of it.Pogo The Clown wrote:johnny_scootch wrote:Crea is and has been the boss or acting boss if you still believe amuso is official boss. Matty is steves right hand man and his underboss / street boss to insulate steve.
in this scenario underboss = street boss. There has been no change in the lucchese hierarchy for quite some time now.
I don't know how you can be so sure since you recently wen't 0-4 with your DeCavalcante info.
The only official info we have received lately about the Lucchese leadership is that Amuso is Official Boss, Madonna was Amuso's Street Boss and now that Madonna is UnderBoss. Beyond that is pure speculation. Now Crea can very well be the Acting Boss with Madonna as UnderBoss. It can also be Madonna serving both roles or Madonna could have been the Acting Boss with Crea as UnderBoss. We just don't know until further info becomes available.

Pogo: "We just don't know until further info becomes available." LMAO yes we don't know but are free to discuss our opinion on what it could be and we don't care if it comes out later that what we thought was not true. We still have our day jobs ! lol

What he said was not his opinion. He stated it as fact. Apparently you can't tell the difference opinion and fact.

Re: Gangland:5/28/15
It's a slippery slope. Years back this type of shit was allowed to run rampant unchecked and as a result, The Outfit was a 500 member beast, Denver was under Chicago and Aruba was part of its territory. Leonard Falzone replaced the Todaros and Amuso was replaced by 27 year old Paulie Stripes DeMarco. Etc etc.. And after a few years of people discussing that, you'd become the asshole if you pointed that the bit about Falzone hasn't been confirmed or DeMarco doesn't exist.Rocco wrote:Pogo see above.

Opinions and comments are fine, but some people take it too far and treat it like a reality TV show. They're the same people who would always predict next week's Sopranos based on some special mob insight that only they had. It gets annoying because they're like children on Ritalin with their 2c.

Re: Gangland:5/28/15
Exactly Christie. If you are gonig to state something as a fact that goes against the established facts then expect to be challenged on it.
Just as if I were to say (for example) Willy Wiseguy is the new Boss of the Gambinos or Vincent Gigante was never a made member or Philly has 200 made members then I would expect for people to say, "hey wait a minute, how do you know this? That is not what the official info says, etc."

Re: Gangland:5/28/15
There's posters that just have a different approach. Some prefer to write long thoughtful paragraphs, others just like to drop in on their phone and post quick comments. Guys like you like to keep it to "established' specifics, others like to speculate and debate. Everyone here is coming from a good place and not trying to be a bullshit artist. Great points are made on all sides... Anyways, moving on.Pogo The Clown wrote:Chris Christie wrote:Rocco's not stating anything as fact, he's treating it like a game of fantasy football.

Re: Gangland:5/28/15
Considering his post was after we went over the whole new capeci article reversing his claim and he didn't state anything else to support what he said as fact. Its pretty clear its his personal opinion. You are treating these posts like a fuckin term paper. If he was stating it was a fact he would have said so and supported it as so especially after you came back at him.Pogo The Clown wrote:What he said was not his opinion. He stated it as fact.

Re: Gangland:5/28/15
Its really not a slippery slope. Its all how you read it. Cleary when someone states someone as fact they say so...and cut and past additional documentation to support it as so. To everyone else reading it...its pretty clear its personal opinion. The fact that you read everything on the forum as if it were fact is your own fault. What I was talking about was who was street boss now or after Matty goes away. Clearly there is no viable info on this. So clearly its opinion because there is no way to even verify that. We have a chart section here that clearly depicts every position in the family based on the info we get from Capeci and indictments. Pogo's answer to this is Since there is no info out on this it should not be discussed what so ever ...?? LMAO ! Come on already. Its nutts. I know you guys like your to research and write shit. But enough already.Chris Christie wrote:It's a slippery slope.

"Exactly Christie. If you are gonig to state something as a fact that goes against the established facts then expect to be challenged on it."
No one stated anything as a fact last time I checked? The guy never said it was a fact and never back it up after Pogo chimmed in with the latest gangland we ALL read..? You are the only one stating it was a fact when it clearly wasn't. UNLESS SOMEONE STATES IT AS A FACT OR BACKS IT UP WITH DOCUMENTs...its not. If you go back and read any of your posts when you state something you immediately back it up with gangland or part of an indictment. Which is not what anyone has done here..? You are the only saying he said it was a fact?
The guy doesn't agree with Capeci wrote about Amuso. He feels Crea is boss and calls the shots. Your can post Capeci and FBI testimony till your blue in the face. Its not going to change anyone opinions. Last time I checked no one has changed the Charts on the luchese family have they?
Get over it. Move on and let people have their fun on the forum for christs sake.
