I don't look up to professional athletes regarding their opinions on politics or anything like that, but the things they do on the field are amazing.  They are like the top 1% of the top 1% and they get their because they have worked their asses off.  When they do amazing things I think it is worth celebrating.

Many people who hate celebrations are just mad because when they were a kid the better athletes made them look bad and talked trash about it.

I don't know about the jealousy aspect and don't particularly care either way, but I do recall one guy from HS who played in the minor leagues, last name West is all I remember about him other than being able to just about break my fingers every time he threw the ball to me.. I remember thinking at the time he'd become a big star.. It never happened..
