So this ridiculous excuse has finally stuck. Strange because it's not the original excuse, that was "being careful to avoid getting caught like the Marquez fight". I suppose I shouldn't be surprised since this camp has a long history of using excuse after excuse until one sticks.

Bad socks
Drained by needles
Leg cramps
Compassion
Cut won't heal
Wrong gloves
Need a stadium
Etcetera

I know there is a ton more but I just had to stop and look at this list. Seriously, look at that for a minute and try to decide which is the most absurd. It's hard because they're all so f'n stupid.
