Some people take this game way too seriously. When the fans take it more seriously than the players it's clear that there's a problem
Not disagreeing that this is unacceptable.
But, thats not the best way to categorize when its too far.
Some of these players treat this as if it is a job. And these players sign contracts with these teams. Obviously most of them are fiercely competitive (because you have to be to get to this level) and it is valid.
But most fans have supported a team all their life and they will never change allegiances. The team represents the city that they live in, grew up in, love, etc... You don't know if thats the case for the players.
