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.

I'd love to have, someday, a fossilized piece of dinosaur bone. Doesn't mean I'd idolize that once-living creature.
To piggyback off this, not every athlete in my autograph collection has been a stellar human being in their lives. Just because I have their autograph doesn’t mean I worship them or condone any past misdeeds.

Also, even if people do worship/idolize, it’s none of my business if they do.
