Soccer superstar Neymar has made waves in the news recently after his departure from Barcelona to PSG. In response to the move, many Barcelona fans have begun to burn their Neymar jerseys after he left the team:

I’m not a soccer guy by any means, but Neymar’s move doesn’t seem to be one out of spite or anger for Barca. The man wanted to be THE GUY somewhere and rightfully so, considering he is probably one of the top-3 players in the world right now. He is also now the highest paid soccer player in HISTORY! The move seems like a complete no brainer and should not be considered to be an act of betrayal by Neymar.

Nevertheless, people always seem to pull this bush-league move whenever their respected-superstar leaves: burn the jersey. Burn it to ashes! I mean taking the time out of your day to burn a jersey you paid for and post it online is definitely the only rational thing to do in the situation:

Get a fucking life people. I know sports is a huge part of people’s lives (mine included), but if you are so personally invested that you have to literally burn a departing player’s jersey you should probably find something else to fill your time with. Best case scenario you somehow feel like a big shot after burning the jersey you probably paid $100 for and throw away the burnt remains. Worst case scenario you look like an asshole when said departing player comes back to your team and you have to go out and buy a new jersey. Its just an immature thing to do and you look like an asshole every single time. I’m gonna throw a number on it and say 85-90% of player departures are not out of true anger and spite for the previous organization, and I might even be low-balling it there. Just grow up guys, find something else to do, like attack them on social media. It’s 2017 people get with the times already.
