Phil was the biggest idiot. He could spent the rest of his life as human-house, but instead he got killed.
I still say Adriana was. At least Davey survived his stupidity. Adriana made no right moves.

Interesting thought. They'll kill you for going to the feds but what do they do if someone just ups and vanishes? I really can't imagine they would bother trying to track them down.
Its the New Jersey mafia not the fricking CIA. In that College episode Tony sporadically comes across a former rat who was living just a hundred miles away from him. If Gene wasn't being handled by the FBI he could've fricked off for a few years and waited for Tony's crew to be completely obliterated by NY later on. After that he would've been a free man
What makes you think the CIA is more competent than the mafia? The mafia would know all the people a criminal on the run might contact in order to get some income flowing.
did your stupid ass not watch the scene where he was working for the FBI? They weren't going to let him go since he obviously got caught and was working undercover. They wanted to get Tony and they weren't going to let him go to Florida.
Were they? I thought Gene turned to the FBI himself after seeing that Ton-eh wouldnt let him go instead of being a rat all along.

Yeah there, until then Ray was their main source of information while Gene had no hints of being a rat.
no because why would he kill himself then? He did because he was in a jam with 2 different parties.
What I am saying is that I think he became a rat as a last resort to have his 'dream' fulfilled.
What Gene should have done is dissapear without looking back ever again.

fan theory is he got caught doing the hit in the restaurant shortly after he first asked to go to Florida and they made him go undercover to avoid jail time.

Sounds more of a pickle
well the problem is they may or may not find you and kill you. You then have to spend the rest of your life wondering if they will track you down or not.
Gene asked Tony to leave and he said no. He says to all members that you are in this for life. If someone just leaves, what else are they going to do? "Oh well we have this rule but if you want to break it then ok, we won't do anything".

>Gene asked Tony to leave and he said no.
Yeah, because he doesn't want to give up an employee that provides him with money. If Gene had just left without saying anything I doubt there would be any recourse. Furio just leaves without saying anything and nothing happens to him, and the boss's wife had the hots for him.

Furio left for a whole different country so it would be near impossible to find him. Plus he probably just went back to his old crew and he was treated as more of a rental in the first place, so it was a unique situation. >I doubt there would be any recourse.
you have to have some sort of recourse otherwise your rules don't matter. Everybody would just frick off once they get rich and your crew falls apart then without guys working.

Vito just left for one state over and nobody knew where the frick he was. He wasn't even being hunted down by Phil or Tony despite all the gay shit

Vito went to some small dinky town. Maybe you'll be able to hide out there long term but that's it for the rest of your life and you'll be stuck doing shit work or else you draw attention doing something more high class. Again, you probably could frick off somewhere far, but you always have to worry about them finding you. It's not fun having shit to worry about all the time.

It's because he was living in some dinky town that held no business relevance for the Jersey crew. Just like the guy Tony happened to find and whack while traveling with Meadow, he was leading a pretty good life (he was moronic and didn't lay low enough, however.)
What Gene should have done was say frick the mob, frick the fed, take his family to some thirld world country where 2 mil is enough to live like a king, get his moron junkie son into a rehab center for rich gringos, and put some money on the street. ezpz

Most don't get rich enough to just up and leave. Also I don't think many could adjust to normal life and miss the lifestyle, like Tony B and Vito. I think most wouldn't want to go but Gene's situation was unique.

yeah but some might just not want to deal with the stress of the work you do or don't want to risk going to prison/dying anymore. Chris was too stressed and miserable when he became made so it's not all fun and games.

A big part of why Chris was always having such a hard time is he was made too soon (as everyone else is implied to think as well). He should have done his proper time and learn basic mobster shit like keeping his mouth shut, teaching your b***h to deal with police/FBI and balance a sports book.
They took an oath, they have the opportunity to leave before they become made men. If you take the perks of being one of the top guys then you have to pull your end of the weight.
There's too many people connected to New York/Jersey down in Florida, someone would eventually recognize him and let the family know, and they would have him whacked.
did your stupid ass not watch the scene where he was working for the FBI? They weren't going to let him go since he obviously got caught and was working undercover. They wanted to get Tony and they weren't going to let him go to Florida.
If anything he should have just sold it as him picking up family work down in Florida. Ralphie was apparently there for years running some numbers racket, and despite what tony said, there were a couple of real old guys living down there who were effectively retired from the game.
Gene was an idiot for sure but the feds were on his ass too so he probably didn't have a way out. Telling tony he was retiring was really fricking moronic though.

Bevilaqua and Gismonte are indisputably down the most moronic morons in the show, followed closely by Jackie Jr.
Let’s not forget this moron going undercover and almost killing some citizen trying to bust open the great Pokémon heist of ‘99.
The problem is that a gambling addiction is more like masochism. You don't wanna win, you wanna lose because the feeling is stronger than winning. Atleast with heroin you're chasing the pleasure of the high
Sopranos was good but in hindsight it seems like almost all of it was made up as they went along. Too many characters that ultimately turned out to be useless or just plain boring.
Meadow was a spoiled little b***h for not taking Davey Jr.'s car when Tony tried to give it to her. If my old man had been an owner like T, I would have been proud to drive that car to school. Ungrateful little puttana!
>Should have just fricked off to Florida with his wife and kids

There were loads of idiots in the sopranos. Bevilaqua and the other moron who shot chrissy the biggest one of all

Just like the Czechian interior decorator.
Yugoslavian, ya mook.
FBI was squeezing him too.

his apartment looked like shit
So just killing himself was the better option?
well the problem is they may or may not find you and kill you. You then have to spend the rest of your life wondering if they will track you down or not.
Would they really kill you for just leaving though? It's not like you left to rat, you just left.

the problem is you still need to send money back to the family. If you're doing nothing then it will make you broke eventually.

AHHHHH NOOOO I LITERALLY CANT STOP GAMBLING OMG I HAVE ZERO CONTROL HELP MEEEEE
Every single person has an addiction like this, but most haven't tried the thing they're addicted to out of pure dumb luck.
addiction is a made up term for losers and homosexuals who have no concept of discipline
Oooo, we got Marcus Aurelius in here!
shut up you junkie dipshit

Livia's actor dying torpedoed their whole season 3 storyline, and presumably some longer plotline threads along with it.
I still say Adriana was. At least Davey survived his stupidity. Adriana made no right moves.
adrianna wasn't the brightest but i still feel sorry for her death
>be selfish moron

mmmboy you are fat
This. Blundetto was the biggest moron in the show, 158 iq my dick and balls.
I believe the 150 IQ, he just had terrible impulse control.
Meadow was a spoiled little b***h for not taking Davey Jr.'s car when Tony tried to give it to her. If my old man had been an owner like T, I would have been proud to drive that car to school. Ungrateful little puttana!
>Drives her brother to a suicide attempt, never apologizes.
>"look how dark Meadow is"
What was meant by this?
god she was so hot in that scene, i love big hair on a woman
little carmine was a literal moron
Uncle Housey Please

Fricking degenerate gambler.
He just had bad luck.
