You're right....

I think all of us here don't like to make excuses... in fact, if anything I think we most often go WAY over the top in NOT making excuses... but this year?

My grandson's team, the Chargers, faced the same as us this year until recently. Probably worse, actually. He and I are catatonic.... and have reached the point where we not only use the injury excuse but ferociously defend it.
