A firm in Boulder, CO is marketing a genetic test to determine a child’s optimum sport. From the IHT:

In health-conscious, sports-oriented Boulder, Atlas Sports Genetics is playing into the obsessions of parents by offering a $149 test that aims to predict a child’s natural athletic strengths. The process is simple. Swab inside the child’s cheek and along the gums to collect DNA and return it to a lab for analysis of ACTN3, one gene among more than 20,000 in the human genome.

Unfortunately my genetic test would probably have said “Best to focus on Madden Football on the Xbox.”
