It's in our genes to compete.
Rome built huge amphitheaters all over the empire as part of sharing Roman culture with the World. Cities as small as 40,000 people might have an amphitheater that could seat 10,000. Just think how staggering that is. And of course witness the Flavian Amphitheatre ( The Colosseum ) and her prominance in Rome. On particularily good years citizens might enjoy upwards of 200 days of games in a single year!
I recently watched a documentary about tesosterone. Women can actually tell men that have higher levels of tesosterone just from pictures. It's a natural thing and must be part of the original courting process. Just as men are attracted to large breasts and hips, so too are women attracted to Tesosterone.
Levels of Tesosterone are not static. They flucate depending on all sorts of things. When men get together and compete you can actually measure an increased level of Tesosterone through out the game. Interestingly enough the winning team will tend to have a higher peak level and a slower ramping down process than the losing team.
Anyway, like I said, it's in our blood.
