The devil rum is inhibiting my ability to properly recall or search for it, but I'm 96.3% certain we discussed this previously. In that previous discussion, real or imagined, I referenced the book
Bounce by Matthew Syed. Even though he's just a pingpong putz I fully support his hypothesis. Lil Lookout, crazy lil bugger that he is has no more genetic ability than any other child (I should know, I've met his parents) but he has been drilled thousands of hours in technique and philosophy of the game of football and therefore appears "gifted" when compared against other children within 2-3 years of his own age.
