And when Previte was trying to implicate Joey in the Boston/Luisi coke deals, he couldn't get Merlino to play ball and talk on the wire...I envision Fat Ron presenting drug deals to Joey who says "you don't want to get involved with that, it's a bad pinch" all while nodding his head in the affirmative and tapping an index finger to his nose.

And Nicky Skins couldn't get Skinny to say boo. Joey's no genius, but no dope neither.
