Sporting activities are essentially modified forms of hunting behav- ior. Viewing biologically, the modern footballer is revealed as a member of a disguised hunting pack. His killing weapon has turned into a harm- less football and his prey into a goal-mouth. If his aim is inaccurate and he scores a goal, enjoys the hunter’s triumph of killing his prey.
To understand how this transformation has taken place we must briefly look up at our ancient ancestors. They spent over a million year evolving as cooperative hunters. Their very survival depended on success in the hunting-field. Under this pressure their whole way of life, even if their bodies, became radically changed. They became chasers, runners, jumpers, aimers, throwers and prey-killers. They cooperate as skillful male-group attackers.
Then, about ten thousand years ago, when this immensely long form- ative period of hunting for food, they became farmers. Their improved intelligence, so vital to their old hunting life, were put to a new use—that of penning(把…關在圈中), controlling and domesticating their prey. The food was there on the farms, awaiting their needs. The risks and uncertainties of farming were no longer essential for survival.
