Special thanks to Verna for this one:
A father took his young son to his first ballet performance
After the show was over, the father asked his son: "Well, did you like it."
The boy said "Yes dad, but I am confused by one thing."
The dad replied, "Well what is it son?"
"Dad, as I watched the dancers I noticed the girls all had to go on their toes alot."
The dad said "So??"
"Dad, couldn't they just get taller girls?"
Please submit any sports medicine humor to my email at sffootdoc@aol.com and I will choose some for the blog itself. Thank you very much.
