I think if you put your mind to it you could come up with numerous scenarios, the most obvious of which would be that the disciples slipped a few coins to the guards and snatched the body themselves, to make the prophecy look true. Just about any scenario would be more probable than the officially sanctioned Christian version.

How about: there were no guards? They were written in later in one of the many revisions of the text. The earliest extant written fragments were written 30 years after the crucifixion; some were written down until a hundred years after it. The last half of Mark 16 does not exist in the earliest versions of it. It is widely accepted as having been added later and is omitted from many versions of the Bible. And it is one of the resurrection accounts.
