Griffey = anomaly

Bonds = steroids

Besides, the dads were above average, and the children were amazing. Still works.

If dad is not a hall of famer, then son is. How's that?

I call chicken or the egg on this one.

Too many variables. What about a fat mom producing a better athlete than a skinny mom?

Like I said earlier, the gene for cooking and cleaning is irrelevant.

Someone left a comment saying he's with the Alabama Crimson Tide.

Yes, I believe he chose Alabama. He did it because Ingram went to the NFL.

Dude should be sick. Can't wait to watch him on tV.

Joe Bryant--Kobe Bryant

Archie Manning--Peyton Manning

See how comparisons can be twisted to fit your opinion?

Actually, that's different.

Superstar father -> average kid
average father -> superstar kid

That's not fair to the mother. You both are taking 50% of the equation out.

Yao Ming Dad = tall athlete
Yao Ming Mom = tall athlete

Yao Ming Dad --->>O Yao Ming Mom = tall athlete

Brittany Spear + whatever his name is = good chance of f**ked up kids.

If I thought the gene that included cooking and cleaning was relevant, I would have mentioned it.
