If Leaf fans can throw their team jersey onto the ice, nothing wrong with disgruntled Rider fans trading their greenies for something different.

I was wondering what they were going to do with all the gear they collected.
Sports can be a peculiar thing. When partaking in fiction, like a book or movie, we adopt a "Willing Suspension of Disbelief" for enjoyment's sake. There's a similar force at work in sports: "Willing Suspension of Rationality". If you doubt this, listen to any conversation between rival team fans. You even see it among fans of the same team. Fans argue over who's the better QB or goalie, and selectively cite stats that support their views while ignoring those that don't.

A much more charitable thing than I would have done with it, which involves my backyard fire pit.
