Never said it was. But the implication was that Sports are more meritocratic than Tech. You don't win MVP of your league through Nepotism but you could easily get $20M+ in VC funding that way.

And likewise, my point wasn't to put words in your mouth, but rather to implicitly agree that nepotism (or something like it) manifests even in something seemingly so merit-oriented as pro sports.
