Ever heard of Nike?

Where do you think they got it from....he was the greek god of victory.

The gods were surrounded with the theme of competiton.

all types of sports and physical strength.

See, the gods fought with eachother even if they weren't a god of 'competition' or 'strength'. It just happened.
