The prob with that theory is that we're only developing athletes after they're discovered. I know this has been rehashed with rhetoric but where it starts is in the schools. I can NOT speak for now at all (my kids are still too young) but I know that when I was just graduating we couldn't go to track meets because the school could not afford it. And as unlikely as it is, perhaps in my school, a future olympian went undiscovered because we couldn't raise enough to go to track meets or soccer games or so on.
Its an unfair world (IMHO, I know many will disagree) when our kids can't compete if a bake sale fails.
