"Atlas executives acknowledge that their test has limitations but say it could provide guidelines for placing youngsters in sports."

What happened to playing a sport because it looks like fun? Whats wrong with playing as many sports as possible as a little kid? I'd like to see the look on a parent's face when the test results say their kid has no hope of even being a high school athlete.
