Euhm... Yes and no...
With "blood" I of course talk about DNA, genetics and so on... And there I would have to argue against you. Genetics DOES matter. I for one could never be the best soccer player in the world, ever. My mum and dad just didn't give me that ability.
They gave me kick *** balance though, so skiing is a breeze :)
So again, genetics does matter. The carte blanche doesn't exist, do you really claim otherwise?
