It has become common in my workplaces to hear factions of employees who disagree with each other refer to their actions, which btw purposefully hinder or sabotage the opposing faction's workload, as a football game. I've heard from authors and analyst also refer to war as a football game. I don't watch football(the sport) or care too much for it so I don't know how it's played, I do have a general idea but that is all.

Sports are a microcosm of the innate human desire to divide (into teams) and conquer.
This plays out in every facet of human life, thus why you see this ‘competitive spirit’ in the work place too. It is also thought by some that popularized sports (on TV) are for the purpose of giving an outlet for those “war desires” so that people don’t use that energy to actually change things in the world... in other words, it is to keep people complacent and to redirect their energy.
