Only way you're gonna know if you can do the job is if you sit in the chair. If you have designs on that, try make it happen, and if it fails, adjust accordingly. If you don't want to be the boss, aim for where you want to be and repeat same advice.

The dude who had the Tony/Napolean picture with the horse on his wall was the dude the OP is talking about, right? Sil or Sal? Pussy is the one who was a wannabe FBI agent and got fed to the fishes.

So, Paulie was the one with the silver waved sideburns? Jesus, how can anyone keep all those characters straight? Now I'm not sure who Sal was (not Pussy).

OP means Silvio Dante,

and this whole thread is a mockery of the artistry and genius of the show. I doubt you are facing a serious life decision. Ban.

The only "Sal" in the show is Sal Vitro, the gardener,

Salvatore Bonpensiero is never called Sal in the show.

He wasn't second to Tony, Paulie was considered a captain and underboss.

I seem to recall Silvio being Tony's consigliere(sp) and most likely to take over if Tony was out. Wasn't there an episode where he was in charge? I don't remember exactly. Either way, Silvio is by far better candidate than Paulie lol

I recall the same and yes, lol at the likelihood of Paulie being consigliere.
