The discussion about girls missing for soccer or spring breaks is getting old. All teams have girls missing for games for a variety of reasons - other sports, vacations, injury. I hear Heroes and BLC both have starting midi's out with injuries, I'm sure other teams do as well. And I don't need to know someone's mom from another team to know that lots of teams (in addition to Pride) will likely have girls missing this upcoming weekend since it is spring break for many schools. Sounds like an excuse to me.
I don't think these are being mentioned as an excuse. I do believe missing key players are a reason why scores this season are much closer than originally expected and open up real opportunities for lesser teams to upset superior teams. Will be very interesting to see how the South Division ends up.
