Vic creates his own Baltimore "Strike Team" consisting of himself, Herc, Carver and Omar. He uses Omar to rob dealers for a second source of income:mjpls:. "Omar and Vic comin":damn:. Him, Carver and Herc flex on people daily. Vic would befriend Rawls to keep him out of trouble with the suits. They pull an "Armenian money train" and steal the money that's meant for Clay Davis. Vic would blame it on Omar and offer him up to Stringer in exchange for a partnership. Vic would play Stringer like everyone else did and bleed him dry. Vic would try to make partnerships with Avon and Prop Joe and he would be in favour of the "co-op" but would also be the same one to eventually dismantle it. McNulty would start to get suspicious and would get the Terry Crowley treatment:manny:. He would be smart enough to realise that a person like Marlow would have to be put into the ground. So his rise never happens.

He would've caught an L almost immediately on "The Wire". There's no way in hell Rawls or Daniels or any of the bosses would've tolerated him....his ass would've been on boat duty by the second episode.

I know that don't make for an exciting story but :manny: that's what would happen.

Would've been the GOAT show no question
Somehow put the characters from Breaking Bad in there and it would be truly piff

We did that already in another thread, it was great. shyt like, Stringer would go to Gus/Mike to have Clay Davis killed when Avon/Slim Charles refused, etc.
