Burning Leafs Jerseys is The Dumbest Trend in Sports

About the Episode

If you’re somebody who burns a jersey I have just one question to ask you; how much money do you make that you have burning jerseys money?

I don’t think the guy who posted the video was actually the one who burned the jersey. But somebody did.

I have never understood the burning jersey craze. My first memory of it happening was when LeBron James left the Cleveland Cavaliers to join the Miami Heat. When it happened I found it kind of interesting. However we live in a copycat world where people need to take an organic moment and turn it into a trend. Anyways, I think burning jerseys is just stupid. 

It doesn’t matter how poorly a team I cheer for performs, there is nothing that could happen on the field that would ever force me to burn a jersey. I work too hard and don’t have the money to burn a jersey. If I wanted to waste $200 I would just throw a stack of twenties into the fire pit. Leafs fans have clearly been through a lot, but I’m not letting this person off the hook. It’s just dumb and you look dumb.
