Anyway, if this is valid for sports why not also for wars?

It isn't valid for sports, either.

Not always. You can't explain sports within a tribe with that theory, at least.

Taking part is certainly important wrt to sex.
I am surprised that nobody has made that obvious comment yet.

All of this sort of stuff is crap. The fact that you tried says you have dedication (sort of). The fact that you won says you have skill. Me, I'd rather have skill

Typical child of the 80s/90s mentality. A silver medal winner can still turn around and see about 6 billion people behind him.
