ARodJetsFan Posted July 8 Share Posted July 8 Jets star responds to claim he was ‘hanging out’ with mob boss 🤔 Updated: Jul. 08, 2024, 9:05 a.m.| Published: Jul. 08, 2024, 8:47 a.m. By Jimmy Hascup | NJ Advance Media for NJ.com New York Jets cornerback Sauce Gardner said that a social media post that surfaced on July 7 is not what it seems: He was not “hanging out” with mob boss Joey Merlino. After the convicted Philadelphia mob boss shared on social media video of him with Gardner on Instagram, Dov Kleiman, an NFL news aggregator on X, immediately posted that Gardner was “hanging out with alleged Philly mob boss Joseph ‘Skinny Joey’ Merlino’ in Florida” with a pondering-face emoji. Gardner refuted that summary on X hours later. https://www.nj.com/jets/2024/07/jets-star-responds-to-claim-he-was-hanging-out-with-mob-boss.html Let the games begin....😁 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meh.....this is a LITTLE more news-worthy, then some rookie draft pick, who hasn't taken a snap in the NFL yet, throwing dollar bills at strippers, in a strip club - because of the high profiles of the people involved, in the alleged video/sighting. I guess we'll see. 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's easy for things to be misinterpreted in the world of the internet, but Sauce (assuming that he knew who this guy was) should have had enough sense NOT to allow that picture to be taken. Again, if Sauce knew who he was, this was poor judgement on his part. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Barry McCockinner Posted July 8 Popular Post Share Posted July 8 Just now, ARodJetsFan said: Obviously there is SOME truth to the story. I wasn't there so I don't know what happened. Given the response from Sauce I think it's a reasonable guess that they could have been in the same place at the same time and the dude asked for a photo op. I never heard of this mob guy, I wonder if Sauce didn't even know who he was. Unless there something more being reported it seems like not much of a story than a fan getting a picture. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or, and bear with me because I know this is hard to imagine but it may just be true, Sauce took a photo with a fan who asked for one, and somehow didn't know that the random older dude was a mob boss. Of course, that assumes that unlike most normal people Sauce wouldn't have immediately recognized <checks notes> Skinny Joe Merlino, but it's at least barely possible, right? 1 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby816 Posted July 8 Share Posted July 8 There's a big difference between "hanging out with" a Mafia boss and just happen to be at the same lace at the same time as a Mob boss. Seems Sauce is making it clear he ran into him. Not hang out with him. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're assuming he even knows who this guy is. For all we know, he thought he was taking a pic with an average joe. How many people on this board knew who this guy was before this story? I know I didnt. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So this guy has a podcast and because Sauce is on social media, he would have listened to this podcast out of 100,000 of podcast out there. “ But let’s assume he did, does this guy annouce on his podcast that he is a mob boss? Then let’s say Sauce did know this podcaster was a mob boss. Is he hanging out with him because he is trying to join the mob? I didnt know mobs still exist and dont know how they work. Can Sauce join? What’s in it for Sauce? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JiFtheOracle Posted July 8 Share Posted July 8 I hang out w/ mob bosses at every family gathering, no issues have come up. I mean, we havent seen Cousin Bruno since he argued w/ Uncle Frankie back in 97 but we were told Bruno took a nice long vacation to the motherland and decided to never come back. Oh, dont try and get a hold of him, he's off the grid, just living his best life! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
