The football fan is a strange beast I've followed the same team for thirty years, going to matches once
a week, even though they seem to lose all the time I've tried switching my allegiance to a different team,
a more successful one, only to return after a few weeks It all seems a bit daft So why do we do it? The psychology of supporting a particular group or team seems mysterious and irrational Why is it important for one team to beat another, when there is seemingly no discernible difference between them? And it's not just in sport: this kind of attitude is common in all walks of life We're happy when our country wins a gold medal at the Olympics, but we're even more pleased when our children's school is rated outstanding, or our project team does well and is picked out for special recognition at work But how can
it be right that we value something so much just because we are in it? This is a question that interests philosophers and sociologists
There is a theory, advanced by the philosopher and sports fan Professor David Papineau, that human beings are obsessed by projects Whereas animals live in the moment, humans are characterized by their ambitions We adopt long-term goals and we work to achieve them, thereby giving our lives meaning We
care about our families, our houses and our careers According to the theory, once you have a goal, it
comes to be especially important for you - but not for others

Gregoris is 100 years old and, aside from appendicitis, has never known a day of illness in his life He has short-cropped white hair, a robustly handsome face and a bone-crushing handshake He is known at
the café as a bit of a gossip and a joker, frequenting it twice a day It's a 1km walk from his house over
uneven, sloping terrain Not many people half his age manage that In Ikaria, a Greek island in the Mediterranean, such characters are not exceptional With its beautiful caves, rocky cliffs, and steep valleys, Ikaria looks similar to any number of her Greek islands But there is one vital difference: people here live on average 10 years longer than those in the rest of Europe and America - around one in three live into their 90s
Not only this, but Ikarians also have much lower rates of cancer and heart disease, suffer significantly less depression and dementia, and remain physically active deep into their 90s What is the secret of Ikaria? What do its inhabitants know that the rest of us don't? Cardiologists found that the Ikarian diet, which has been the subject of a number of scientific studies, features a lot of beans and not much meat or
refined sugar The locals also feast on locally grown wild greens, which contain extremely high levels of
antioxidants, as well as potatoes and goat's milk The Ikarians also drink a lot of herb tea and small quantities of coffee, unlike some other areas in the country In addition, and quite importantly, research suggests the Ikarian habit of taking afternoon naps may help extend life
Another important factor is that nearly everyone grows their own food and there is also a strong tradition of solidarity among Ikarians, yet they are far from wealthy Nearly all elderly Ikarians have a story of suffering, though few are keen to tell it After the Second World War, the locals were determined not to become depressed and remained grateful that nothing worse happened to them In terms of
longevity, it was a wise stance Family is a vital part of Ikarian culture and every old person I visited has
children and grandchildren actively involved in their lives
Just before taking my leave, I walk to a village and ask a number of men in their 90s and 100s if they
do any keep-fit exercise The answer is always the same: "Yes, digging the earth," says one man, a 93-year-old who looks 20 years younger Each morning he goes out at 8 am to feed his animals and tend his garden "I've never thought about getting old," he says “I feel good I feel 93, but on Ikaria that's OK."
