Good Bye Moe, Hello Mr. Moto

Moe Rudz
This summer we learned that LeBron James has signed with the Cleveland Cavaliers, two time MVP Dunc "Coach" Walsh will be undergoing a gastro-intestinal bypass, Mike "Hipshake" Farrelly is still fighting to clear his name of any wrong-doing, Phil "Commish" Stewart is going to return as the Czar of the CCHL, Gary "Toe" Blake took a job as a flight attentdant, Dave Masinek is STILL missing, AND NOW; the biggest surprise of the year; Moe Rudz has sold his controlling shares of The Pucking Files to Japanese business mogul Hirohito Moto for $6.4 million. No one was more surprised than the staff at The Pucking Files. Moe was like a father to us. His guiding hand was all over the staff here at "The Files". He told us that he is going on to pursue a career as an etymologist in Borneo. "I've loved bugs since I was a small child and running a media empire didn't give me the time to pursue my passion for insects." "Now, I am finally free to live my life long dream", said Moe.  Mr. Moto who has purchased The Pucking Files as well as Pucking Files Films has followed hockey for the past twenty five years. He hopes to grow hockey in Japan and thinks The Pucking Files is the outlet that will best help him achieve his aims. It is unclear wether Mr. Moto will replace staff members with his own team. Only time will tell. This may be my last post on The Pucking Files. I will await my fate in the weeks to come. For all of you who have followed The Pucking Files over the years, I would like to say, "Thank you and God Bless". And, to Moe, if you are reading this, " I love you man!" "You are a source of inspiration for journalism around the world". "Enjoy those bugs big fella!"  As for the rest of you; "Stay Smart, Read The Pucking Files".     Sincerely,  Webster "Dick" Shinary: Assistant Editor
