I think the meaning of life could be found PLAYING football (soccer actually since American football is not that enlightening) rather than by only WATCHING football.
It is a ball. Like a ball, the world is round. Like the world, a ball spins. It's orbit around the Sun is like the play of feet. The gravity of the sun is the game of football.
