Serious sporting discussingz time please guys.

Have you ever noticed how a lot of players of sport go on to have children who are also successful in the sport they play? It's pretty much a given that this does happen quite a lot. Now, the point I want to make is why is this? I believe that it's one of two reasons but I'm particularly leaning towards one more than the other. My first possible reasons is genes. Since your parent was good at the sport there's a pretty good chance you'll be good because you'll inherit their genes. The second reason, which I personally believe is more true, is that you will be pushed into this sort of life by your parents. A lot of people have natural ability but don't know how to nurture it, since their parents are around people who do know how to nurture it much of this will probably be passed on to the children. They'll also be brought up watching their parents play the sport and it will have a great influence on them.

Pic related, one of many players to come through the FC Barcelona youth setup who had parents that also played for the club.

Maybe you should ask a geneticist involved with the Human Genome Project if there is a Basketball gene or something. Oh wait, they would just laugh in your face for being so retarded.
