Columbus, GA- In an astonishing turnabout, Realtree staffer and team member Michael Waddell, has been traded to Team Mossy Oak.  Waddell, who recently inked a five-year contract renewal with Realtree CEO Bill Jordan was recently spotted at a Mississippi high fence operation wearing what was unmistakably Mossy Oak camouflage.

When cornered in his enclosed shooting box, Waddell claims that (Jordan) reneged on their deal with a loophole clause and traded him Team Mossy Oak.

Realtree camster Bill Jordan stated the “free-agent” clause enabled the trade.

“Waddell was just too expensive”, said Jordan, “and could not consistently kill one-hundred-seventy-class bucks.  The best we could get out of this guy was bucks in the one-forrties and that just does not cut it for my team.  Plus, his fan approval rating dropped five points with that choke-and-miss on a lowly doe on the hunting reality show Realtree Roadtrips.  That was the impetus for the trade.”

Waddell is optimistic about the trade.

“I expect this Mossy Oak pattern will help me kill more (big bucks),” Waddell said.

A pyor where Waddell’s former Realtree duds were burned and later scattered was also discovered at the interview.

“It’s part of my new Mossy Oak contract,” said Waddell. “I can’t be seen in that Realtree stuff anymore.  And they mean it!”

Mossy Oak President Toxey Hass made sure Waddell was well appointed in the brand including everything from tube socks to Mossy Oak sweat bands.

When questioned about his new acquisition Hass made it clear that “making it with Mossy” won’t be easy.

“Michael is standing in some tall shadows over here at Mossy Oak. I hope the boys’ a shooter cuz we ain’t play’n.”
