Hilarious how many times he calls McNall “a great guy” and totally minimizes the con man McNall was and how Bruce screwed many out of large dollars.

^^ He may have screwed people out of a lot of money and eventually put the Kings in a position where they were bankrupted (or close to it, I was too young to know anything about it at the time) but people seemed to like him a lot. Didn't Gretzky refuse to have his jersey retired by the Kings until McNall was out of prison so that he can attend the ceremony? That speaks a lot about the person.

Good video. I like the way Franzese told his story.

Well, a capo in the mob whose father was an underboss is probably going to have some different criteria than most of us as far as judging who is a "great guy"
