Sopranos Theory

Greg the intern tells me that his "friend" works at HBO and was told that the ending Tony's death and - get this - that Tony died the same way as his father. Janice, in season 2, described her father's death at a restaurant. The family was all sitting the same way as when Johnny Boy Soprano was killed, and Janice walked in to see him killed.

As a faithful Sopranos watcher, I'm not sure I buy this. First of all, wikipidea, the world's most trusted new source, says that Tony's father died of emphasyma, not that he was killed. Also, I have no recollection of Janice describing her father's death, and wouldn't it be odd that Tony would not talk about his father's murder that happened right in front of him, especially since Tony followed in his chosen field?

It doesn't make sense. Still, its a great theory. Thanks, Greg. Thanks.
