A corny example that breaks down would be the NFL. NFL sets the rules of the game and coordinates the schedule. So, in San Diego, well it used to be!, the Chargers were the NFL in San Diego, the franchise. But locally, there was a coach that coordinated the local team. Within that team were offense, defense, punters, kickers, 2nd string, waterboys, special teams, etc. The coach did not set his own rules but developed a team according to the head, the NFL. In some cities, coaches, depending on personnel went for a running game, some passing, some combo, some defensive dominance etc, so there was a local strategy dependent on the local situation.
So, let's say an extremely talented, articulate player-lets say Tom Brady decided to exercise his thinking over the other teams and drew them off to not listen to the NFL, and created his own league and called it NFL. Maybe a lot of the rules were the same, still played with a football-although deflated, ahem.
Now there would be a problem. The need would be to recover the proper relation to the NFL, and the teams would need to let go of the Bradyfalse NFL and get back to practicing and playing under the correct head.
I know it's a poor example, but it somewhat explains my views.
