“I might get two or three hundred dollars robbing a bar, but from a drug dealer I could get two or three hundred thousand,” he said. I told Fran [his wife] about a time I went to rob a stash house and they wouldn’t open the door. I yelled: ‘If I’ve gotta come in there, something bad’s gonna happen.’ The window opened and they threw the drugs out.
Not surprisingly, when David Simon was mining Baltimore for real events, he ended up using that very scenario in the show

The dude that Rides up and delivers the news to Omar about Butchie played Pablo on season six of Oz. It’s crazy how many people from Oz made it over to the Wire
If McNulty of all people had walked in on the mayor getting some top, that would have changed ENTIRE dynamic of everything afterwards.
McNulty having a direct line to the mayor? Man
He definitely would have gotten a wiretap with no problems whatsoever.

Duzz14 2 years ago Y'all wanna know how crazy good this show actually is? I of course did not pick up on this I read it but here it is: Avon in this scene is grabbing his right arm after fighting Stringer cuz of where he got shot. D'Angelo always referred to himself as "MY UNCLES RIGHT ARM" or hand. Avon heard the truth about D and holds is right arm. This show is and always will be the greatest.
Show was so outside the box when it came to putting together a script

I think very deeply
The final scene between Avon and Stringer when they were on the rooftop reminiscing.
Avon was lowkey telling Stringer "you've always been a know-it-all from day one who never listens and that's why I have to finally get rid you because you're a liability who keeps getting yourself and us in trouble".

If Avon was a boxer he should have knocked Stringer out easily

First off Avon was a boxer and second, how was he going to knock out string with a gunshot wound?
