Once you've invoked an immaterial force how do you go about assigning a measure of plausibility? I think you may be mistaking the plausibility of a concept as a thought exercise with the plausibility of any given "thing"s" existence.
On your scale, birds with 80 foot wing spans would fall where?
Are you entirely sure that nothing in human evolution may have been involved in fostering a desire to kick things........no incentives to assert yourself, engage in a little duty free violence, physical activity, etc?
(and while we're at it, are you entirely certain that you possess any of this "reason" business in the first place, or that such a thing is required to kick a ball? heheheh)

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
