Tuesdays With Hildy: Upper Respiratory Infection Edition!

by hildymac on Aug 25, 2009 10:00 AM CDT

I'm winded, can't breathe, and I think death is imminent, so I'm going to cop out for JUST THIS WEEK (I'm getting meds Thursday - yay!) and leave the debate up to you guys: Is Andy Murray a good coach? What about him do you think encouraged our guys to make it to the playoffs? *Was* it even Murray's doing? Some have bandied about the theory that he fell short this year because we got swept the first round... even chalking up the Blues' successes to an easy second half schedule.

So - is our very own Jack Adams nominee a shining beacon of excellence in coaching? Or, God forbid, was everything this year just a fluke?

Poll

Is Andy Murray a good coach?

Hell yes - look at what he did with the team. That success is due to good leadership.

Nope - bring back Iron Mike! He'll keep those showboating youngsters in line!

It's pretty much equally the team and Murray - the word of the day is "symbiosis."

If anyone votes for Keenan . . .

they’re either 1) not Blues fans, 2) not regulars at Game Time, 3) ready to get a deathly beating at the hands an 85-year-old bag lady, or 4) all of the above.

I say option #4.

One day, David Backes and Albert Pujols will combine forces to become the most awesome piece of violent force known to man.

Upper respiratory infection?

Awww, c’mon, suck it up! Backes could play with a collapsed lung!

(Nah really, get well soon . . . that sounds like it blows – no pun intended.)
