Odd bump, but here's the response from Backes.....pretty funny!
Quote:
Backes said he has no past with either of the two, and has no idea how they would even know his wife's name. [It's in the Blues media guide.]
"They just have better researchers than I do," he shrugged. "There was a guy who got suspended for a couple of games [for talking about someone else's significant other], wasn't there?"
"Hey, my wife is a strong woman. She can take it," Backes said. "She's pretty attractive -- I'm pretty proud of what I landed there. I'm over-achieving."
