You completely missed the point and that's because you didn't read any of it. If you had read any of it you would have read that athletic skill is not a cognitive skill. Of course 10,000 hours won't make someone wayne gretsky.

Again, you're free to cling to your dinner bro's big observation. I've shared my view, success takes hard work and proper environmental components.
