People love to do activities where their efforts and rewards have a strong correlation to each other. Athletics are an activity where hard work pays off. That's rare at a job.

    This. Whether I pour my heart and soul into doing the most amazing work or just do something mediocre but passable, I get paid the same at the end of the month. Also, the reward for doing great work is more work (but not necessarily more money), so shareholders can go to hell as far as I'm concerned.
