    I'm not sure if anyone has posted this yet or not (I didn't see anything about it), but has anyone considered whether or not the rash of injuries has anything to do with what Keith Jones has or has not done during the offseason and during this season?

    Or, if nothing else, what can he do to keep these guys healthy through the offseason and into next season?

    I have one suggestion (on a heath and skills issue): Try to keep the players from playing in "playground" leagues. I think that the offseason habit of going back to D.C.-area playground leagues opens the players up to a greater chance of injury and diminishs what team chemistry and fundamentals that could be instilled through organized, professional practice (MJ/Chicago-style).

    Any thoughts on the matter?

    I had never thought of that before.

    Let's go break his legs.

    That's ridiculous...injuries are a part of sports...also, Keith Jones will have ZERO say on whether or not these guys play pickup games in the offseason

    I didn't know KJ was the guy who called for the ISO offense, and the lack of effort defense...

    Well, obviously, it's all his fault. :)

    No, not everything. How about you name some things Keith could have done better and then we can comment if we believe it was something he could really have helped to prevent.
