Editor’s Note:  You are playing football in the park.  You hurt yourself.  Your friends take you to the doctor.  The doctor walks into the examining room and asks, “What seems to be the problem?”

You say, “I was in the park playing football and I hurt myself.”

The Doctor says, “Let’s have a look.”

You say, “Wait a minute doctor. Do you play football?”

He says, “No.  I’m too busy with my medicine.”

You ask, “Did you play football in school?”

“No,” he says, “I was a member of the chess club.”

You respond, “How can you examine me when you never played football?  I want to be examined by a doctor who played football.”
