Oh come on, at least we'll finally know where Danny gets his height from....
Low blow, I know.
Papa Messer never really had to be anything huge in the mob. If he was invovled, I assume that due to the surname he wasn't really in any position for serious power.
Though I do like the idea of the connections coming from the mother's family -- changes things up a bit. But heck, they could both be connected. *shrugs*
Anyway, great post JDonne. It was an interesting read!

The only thing that makes me go, "Eh, I don't know..." is just how close it sounds Danny is to his mother. Over the seasons, he's made multiple references to her, and not in the negative, so I think if he had been a snitch or did turn his back on his mother's family, it'd have to be with her approval and support. He's obviously not estranged from her and isn't afraid to take Hawkes over to a household affiliated with the mafia. I mean, I have considered the mob connections being with his mother's family, but I can't help but wonder if there's a reason we rarely hear about Papa Messer.

Again, I can't help but think back to Danny's relationship with Mac in S1. He went a step above and beyond looking for Mac's approval, and seemed almost devastasted when Mac expressed his disappointment. Would Louie's rejection have been enough to draw Danny into looking for a surrogate father?
Anyway, great post JDonne. It was an interesting read!

It's certainly possible that Pop Messer could be a snitch but would he risk his family in doing that!! Tanglewood looked serious enough so if they were involved in something more intense would he risk his family!!

That's because he is arguably the most complex and well-written of all of the characters in NY. Mac could probably contest him in terms of storylines, but because Mac is such a private man, we don't see his feelings and reactions as much as we do with Danny.

I'm starting a petiton for TPTB to bring back the Danny of old!! I know I've still got most of season 3 to watch but I've heard he's kinda subdued and all! Very much looking forward to Raising Shane though!! Carmine and Edward Furlong! Yum!

Having mob ties doesn't necessarily mean you're a bad person and/or have a criminal record. Danny's mother could be the daughter of a boss but be the sweetest person, have a good relationship with her son and cook for his friends.
The family may have been under surveillance because of who she is, they do that with relatives of "dangerous" guys but like I said, not necessarily because she did something. What intrigues me on the other hand is Papa Messer. He married a boss's daughter so he had to be very careful and try to please his father-in-law any way he could if he didn't want to find himself six feet under. What if said father-in-law asked him a favor or something, leading to Papa Messer doing something wrong? The snitch theory works too, and could lead to interesting dynamics between the characters.
Ah, the possibilities...
