[Bloody Sam Roberts]

This will allow an expanded role for him otherwise Vito would whack him.

All the stupid kid had to do was go to the ball game with Vito and tell him there was no problem whatsoever...which is all Vito wanted to hear anyway. What was he gonna do? Kill him at Yankee stadium?

Besides, I pity the fool that marries that Soprano brat.

I don't think going to the game with Vito would have solved this problem but actually have made it worse. Remember he told Meadow that Vito made a pass at him. And if he persisted and was rebuffed the danger grows. Even if nothing else happened his knowledge of Vito's other side continued to pose a tremendous danger. Of course, he wouldn't have killed him at Yankee Stadium but may have at other point. He probably could even have it done at the job and make it look like an accident.

Meadow just needs a real man not these pretty boys she has been hanging out with.
