Weird and Wacky Steubenville, OH:

Here's one 4 us oldheads...a great fraud to come out of Steubenville was the adult film "actress" Miss Traci Lords whom fooled the whole adult film industry as well as the government by lying & "acting" seven yrs. older than she really was..she was only 15 & 16 ,17 in her superstar yrs. in that biz..took the the whole industry by storm.

lol. Poor Dino. Trying to talk up your hometown on a mob forum and the only feedback you get is about a porn star. Ah, shucks. I'll help ya.

Jimmy The Greek was from Steubenville. Famed handicapper on the NFL on CBS in the '80s. More famous for making a drunken comment about black athletes that got him fired. Probably most famous for once punching Brent Musburger. Jimmy says take the Jets minus 6. [cue '80s CBS sports theme]

No doubt Steubenville was heavily mobbed up. They talked about that on The Greek's ESPN 30 for 30 documentary. He learned how to bet and (and lay?) the pigskin games in Steubenville's mob casinos. The DeBartolos, former 49ers owners, are from Youngstown. Don Moldea, who's written books about the NFL being fixed, Jimmy Hoffa, etc, believed the DeBartolos were mobbed up. It's Ohio, man.

And, of course, the real Dino Crocetti (Dean Martin) is from Steubenville, who you named yourself after, you character you. You're nobody till somebody loves you.

""In an earlier report, authored by Burda, the special agent wrote that he had developed source information indicating that 'Meyer Lansky, the financial wizard of OC [organized crime], is now considered by most to be almost senile and getting out of the business. His successor and new financial wizard is recognized as Edward J. DeBartolo.'"

Holy crap. Did a little more searching on the Debartolo thing for kicks and it turns out a special agent believed Debartolo Sr., father of the 49ers' owner, took Meyer Lansky's place as mob financial adviser when Lansky started to lose his marbles.

Art Rooney Sr also laid off all his action to Wheeling, WV and the Paul Hankish organization...all overseen By Jo Jo Pecora.

I grew up in the East Liberty section of Pittsburgh where I was generally aware of Pecora et al. However, the other day, I had a conversation with my oldest sister who, apparently, knew them well. She revealed some things to me about her friendship with some of those people as well as our brother's and uncle's association. As a kid, I remember hearing some oblique references to Pecora from time to time, but this is the first time that she went into depth about them. To say the least, I am surprised. She credited our parents with keeping her from getting just too involved with them.

I have quite a few friends from Larimer Ave. Every kid on the corner knew a bookie,a loanshark or a pimp. Great area, sad to see it so declined. Reminds me of Steubenville.

I go back once or twice a year. Last time was in May. Consistently, over the last couple of decades, the Avenue looks like a film of Germany's cities at the end of WWII. Of course, the paisan are gone and it is dominated by the mulignane. It's a shame, a crying shame. Hopefully though, since Pittsburgh is booming, there are developers investing in Larimer Ave. (actually all of East Liberty) to revitalize it. In fact, the old Larimer school is one of them.
