Too bad about Canada having half its territory cleaved off. Bummer for you.
In my world, collecting historical artifacts, including artifacts used and worn in action by athletes, does not logically lead to the conclusion that said collector is idolizing said athlete. Some of us just think historical stuff is neat.
