What's the story with this Johnny Chang? He has to be a real mutt to be hanging out with this Virgil character and this Baldino kid. His father was in jail for 35 years and he goes and hangs out with FBI rats? Something is definitely wrong with this picture. Than get stepped to in the diner he should think about another line of work. Seems like these guys are trying to fill the gaps now. But the caliber of men are not around. No rules are left at all.

I believe Kathy's more feared.........

I agree with the Virgil thing, fuckin crazy...
but whats the issue with Baldino?? have not heard anything negative?

He got stabbed or beat up like a month ago at some club, then the leader of the 10th and O (forget his name) came up to him at a diner with Johnny Chang within earshot, and told him he better not run his mouth, and said the same to the friend in the booth with him.

This was reported on RD by a Philly guy.

Johnny Garbarino aka Garbs was the guy I was thinking of

Does Johnny Chang still run the lottery/newspaper stand outside the Chickie and Petes, the one Mayoface crept up on him at in the Mob Talk piece? Who leads 10th and O these days?

Well, then, it MUST be true!

ummm im reporting where I got it from in case he asks, or are you not intelligent enough to add 2 and 2?

Not everything comes from the papers, keyboard warrior.

So many lames on here im about to stop posting here. What a circus act.

Take it easy.

Keyboard warrior... Lol

I mean I was just providing some info that I had to a question that was asked and had to get a smartass comment

From what i heard tid Baldino kid robbed both of his uncles and than got all his friends to come in court and testify against them. The uncles can't stand him or his mother who is also their sister. But it seems like nobody likes this Baldino kid. He's a steroid user and percocets. The whole city has him down as a rat. They say his father also cooperated too. This is 100% fact. So whoever is saying this guy is LCN does not have a clue. LCN guys have him as a rat too.

You say this like it's a bad thing.

All good, I was just busting your balls.

With real-life South Philly characters "Uncle Joe" Ligambi, "Skinny Joey" Merlino and Angelo "The Gentle Don" Bruno peppering Tigre Hill's new documentary on organized crime, it's bound to be a hit.

Last week the "Shame of a City" and "Barrel of a Gun" director released the trailer for his latest film, "The Corrupt and The Dead."

Hill described the forthcoming documentary as focusing on the detrimental effect of organized crime on society, as well as its impact on the economies of its host cities. The film covers the mob's influence in cities across the country, but takes heavily from the mob's impact on Hill's native city of Philadelphia.

"Philly was so unique," Hill said, "even the mafia was saying, 'What the (expletive) is going on in Philly?'"

The film bookends with Philly elite, beginning with Salvatore Sabella, who Hill claims is the first known Sicilian Mafia boss in Philly, and it concludes with Merlino's fall.

"A lot of old mobsters have no respect for Merlino," Hill said, "Not that they're worthy of respect."

The filmaker - known for tackling such controversial issues such as the 2003 mayor's race and the 1981 murder of Philadelphia Police Officer Daniel Faulkner by Mumia Abu-Jamal - said the project will be finished in May.

cool no hard feelings here

In large circles of the US population, it is. That's not to say it is, and that steroids is bad and that it doesn't have it's use when put to certain things, like injuries, or that it doesn't have a fanbase. But many people still look at steroids as taboo, and something of a drug. And in some mob circles, it's been known that some mob guys weren't fans of steroid users.

Uncle Joe Ligambi's Casino Exclusion Article from begining of his tenure on top

old Turchi article from 1997

Whats wrong with steroids, ive been using them on and off for 20 years.
I agree they shouldnt be used in pro sports but damn, they work.

agreed. I am in my early 40's. Been using about 6 yrs now.

Is it true that steroids make your penis smaller?

Thread getting... derailed...

actually your testicles shrink. But everybody is different.
But back too the mob talk. A very close friend of mine should me a pic of Wags and Anthony Nicodemo in prison. Wags visited him several weeks ago. And Anthony Nicodemo actually looks very good. And Nicodemo was in a button dress shirt. I thought that was odd. And another thing I heard the Chang's are on Vacation in south Fl. And Mrs. Chang is posting alot of pics. But none has mr.chang in them. Heard he has become very camera shy on the trip.

My boy told me about Fox news video so we watched about 2 weeks ago and I've been meaning to see what the internet has to say cause i haven't had the time to read or post.I only find out about new club house, which I think is dumb, only 2 weeks before this video but the one thing I wanted to mention and that I've said before on here and me and my boy said right away. These guys and their friends who aren't made have been into real estate for a long time. Nicodemo especially. But Dom grNde n old friends from 10th street have properties together. It's not just a mob thing either. But these guys will share resources. Who,has a guy with hot wood floors. Who has a guy who,will hook up puting a new kitchen in n so on. They also have guys who have insurance type fraud deals to get money. Nicodemo had a hook up like that where they file a clai and so on. Typing on phone so gonna end this. Not trying to post to say i Said this a while ago but some people who only read what's online like to tell you your wrong but im sure i have old posts talking about real estate. Anyway and quickly...who thought the club house was a good idea. I know they are still there but not as much since video...more wannabes who know someone now to get in. I could have went in with a guy who owed a guy,not made, but half Brother is made money. They prob didn't even want my boy in there lol but I told my "friend" i,was not,going in. I also wonder how quickly the gnu watch a place like that n from where except a apartments around the ways. Do the fbi rent using a civilian? Kinda like mob. Cause they can't get much on street besides shit like Fox gets

Just reading some comments...only recent. But they are tigether, so,see them,around 12 and Ritner walking n talking last summer a lot.

I didnt know cuz al moved to DE. But haven't seen him in city. Dom GrAnde started to see him round so lance like 5 to 10 years ago and not as many 10 streeters lime,he grew up with. From what i understand...Dom never really wanted to be a made guy. I think one day someone rats him out on dipietro murder,n,hes nervous bout that. Dipietro was killed more,cause of the money he owed on the street...close to 400k dating back a long way. It's never been clear to me if they knew he was a rat or,hit him based on money.

Isn't grandes mom remarried to someone related or close to mazzone? I,don't think they are blood. Mazzone doesn't have family going back...dom does! From his rat father to his Uncle to his grandfsther coo coo and also the piccolos. I think,he felt obligated when they were pushing him into being made. Supposedly he's doing well money wise.

One last thing...Virgil marriutti and his family are pretty decent people. He goes way back with a lot of those guys. Sorry,for any repeats but i couldnt read all 7 pages didnt have time so only read last 2
