While we as fans love to see our favorite teams wheeling and dealing, few think about the impact such a move makes. From uprooting multiple families to tearing apart relationships, trades are at times no laughing matter.
That especially holds true for younger fans, like this pint-sized New Orleans Saints supporter who couldn’t help but cry over the Jimmy Graham trade.
With a camera rolling, the young girl suggested that wherever Jimmy Graham goes (in this case the Seattle Seahawks), so does she as she fought back tears.
That is one broken hearted little girl! Always and forever a Jimmy Graham fan! She loves #80!

Talk about heart breaking.
This of course isn’t the first time we’ve seen a child shaken up after their favorite player was traded, though it’s certainly one of the more difficult to watch as the young girl bravely tries to put on a smile but just can’t do it.
Hopefully Jimmy Graham gets to see the video of his young fan and does something to help her out. I’m sure she’d love a brand new Jimmy Graham Seattle Seahawks jersey or possibly an autographed football.
Jimmy’s quite the kind fellow, so don’t be shocked if you hear about him extending a hand to the young girl in the coming weeks as she roots for her new team.
