954gator Posted July 6, 2020 Report Share Posted July 6, 2020 Could you imagine the Bosa brothers coming to collect a debt? They would have been the best enforcers 😂 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HawgGoneIt Posted July 6, 2020 Report Share Posted July 6, 2020 Definitely an interesting read. Most of us have been following, if only loosely, those kids' careers. Families with "old money" had to get it from somewhere. A good many of us may be surprised at how a lot of folks got their wealth. One thing, you can't buy talent and intangibles like the Bosa Brothers had, so, this story is pretty irrelevant to their careers in football outside of being able to afford private school educations or whatever. Still interesting though. 1 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder if it'll add a fear factor on the field Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cossacks Posted July 6, 2020 Report Share Posted July 6, 2020 I remember when he was drafted by the 49ers and some wondered if his family connections would be a turn off and cause issues for the fan base? Dude was living in backfields and disrupting offenses right away and never heard any more concerns about his family’s past after week 1 😂. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bosa’s father also played in the NFL with the Dolphins. Was a 16th overall pick. Played at BC with my cuz. Also owned a few classy strip joints in the Miami area for a while. Oh nice. I read it but the name didn't mean anything to me so I probably skimmed over it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have read dozens of books on Vegas and the mob. Tony had people terrified of him in Vegas. In 70's there was a strike by a group of workers in the food service business which included bar tenders, cooks, cocktail waitresses etc. Which killed casino business for a few days Tony went and had a 10 minute talk with the head of the union for those people that night they went back to work. He was worse than what you saw in casino. But on the other side in the 60's and 70's Las Vegas was the safest city in America. Criminals were scared of the mob. In one book it said the nice neighborhood Tony lived in had a break in several times a year after Tony moved not a single break in over a 10 year period. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went to the estate auction of the late Sam Giancana when it took place in Vegas. And I can guarantee you that members of this same mob are still alive today. When you see an old man being guarded by a twenty something goon dressed in a sweat suit it’s pretty obvious. Meanwhile the items that were for sale were quite interesting. https://www.latimes.com/nation/la-na-sam-giancana-auction-20141120-story.html “Sam Giancana’s daughter aims to cash in on gangster’s memorabilia By John M. Glionna He was one of Sin City’s original gangsters, an international crime boss who liked to brag that he owned Las Vegas, and an unapologetic irritant of Atty. Gen. Robert F. Kennedy. Sam Giancana has been dead for decades -- shot execution-style in 1975 as he prepared a midnight snack of sausages and spinach in the basement of his Chicago-area home. But many of his prized possessions are still around -- and some are being sold Saturday in Las Vegas. Organizers say the estate auction features a significant Mafia antique collection of a crime figure once characterized as a “tough, swaggering, flamboyant murderer.” Available for bidding both online and at the Gambler’s General Store in downtown Las Vegas are never-before-seen photographs, including a rare snapshot with Frank Sinatra, court transcripts, arrest reports, the coroner’s report and such personal mementos as monogrammed silverware and wine glasses.” 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ever been to any of the famous mob places in Vegas like Tony Spilotro or Frank Rosenthal house. Where Rosenthal car bombing took place is famous.
