1) "You don't see teams that win making excuses"


...well no kidding? Hello? McFly? What in the world is that supposed to prove?

2) "Some teams have key injuries and are still successful."

Sure. That does happen. It's not the norm, and it's not what's most expected; it's just possible. If you can't figure out why those distinctions are important, then I don't think this conversation ever had hope in the first place. Yikes.

Possibly you are making it a little more complicated than it is.

Not everyone who loses makes excuses. Only those who don't take responsibility need excuses. The excuses make them not responsible. Therefore, it is ok to lose or fail. See?
