I cannot imagine in a million years that Merlino is calling any shots. Now, could he have some sort of minimal advisory roll? Maybe, but what kind of advice could he possibly give??? He is living a good life from what i can see and has plenty of fans willing to pay all his tabs. He isnt stupid and he knows the FBI are dying to put him away for life. The FBI hates when the public embraces a criminal. Thats one of the main reasons they were so relentless with john gotti.

I actually agree I believe Merlino to be much smarter than people give him credit for. Not saying this guy is curing cancer or anything, but I think he's quite street smart. I think the whole "celebrity" thing in the 90s was him building a sort of brand for himself almost so he can easily work old guys like old star struck wannabes in FL. He probably figured hey I'm gonna do some time eventually anyways, but I think now that he has his "brand equity" and served his time that's why you're seeing a much less media friendly and less in your face Merlino & Crew (relatively speaking compared to 90s). And incidentally, he is hooked into Meek Mill and that whole deal and had his young guys and daughters at the concert backstage in Miami. Not sure what kind of influence or even any financial inroads he has with that whole scene anymore, but the connection and relationship is definitely there. Remember he got RAM Squad a record deal with Universal. Just some food for thought... Maybe I'm giving Merlino way too much credit here, but it sort of makes sense if you look at the big picture in terms of how he operates.

Merlino is smarter then what people give him credit for If he is then he'll do as Belmont says. Stay retired in Florida and let fan boys pick up his cheques and the FBI waste their time taking his portrait.
MORGAN: Why didn't you fight him at the park if you wanted to? I'm not goin' now, I'm eatin' my snack. CHUCKIE: Morgan, Let's go. MORGAN: I'm serious Chuckie, I ain't goin'. WILL: So don't go.

Well if he is retired I hope he saves money. Because how long can he keep having his expenses being paid a lot for by "fan boys"? I really have a hard time thinking in 10 - 20 yrs if he is free there are going to be enough rich guys around who want to spend money on him.

Joey merlino deserves 10 pages maybe even 20,without merlino this would be a very boring site.merlino is the longest reigning god father of any family thats currently serving in america and thats saying something, through all of th prison sentences the philly family has received and thier still standing, other families went defunct from fbi pressure. I never bought into if merlino show his face in philliy the scarfo guys is going to kill him, merlino goes anywhere he wants with no bodyguards, that tells you how much he is scared of these scarfo guys, you don't get to be a boss for 20+ years by being a punk.i also don't buy the story that mazzone is the only guy narducci gives money to because he can't stand marlino, thats hog wash, mazzone was right buy merlino side when the scarfo guys got overthrown years ago, so if you hate merlino why not hate mazzone? And your going to tell me when they give mazzone money they don't know he's kicking up to merlino??? C'mon...they got out of jail and they fell in line like all of the other scarfo guys will do when they get out, if they really wanted trouble they would tell merlino, mazzone and the whole crew to go fuck themselves and keep the money for themselves
