If sports are really just games, and the planet revolves around the sun, and not sports, then what is really at stake in the playoffs?

Sports and sports playoffs are the last thing in life to have a sense of urgency in life about, or even take seriously, and yet a lot of people still treat sports events like the most important thing in life and the world.
