I love the rooting against him nonsense too. Who's rooting against him here? I hope they win out because I am frothing at the mouth to bet against them first round in the playoffs. Not because I dislike Timmy, but because I think they are a team whose record looks a lot better than it should because of who they have played and the circumstances in those games.
It's no different than betting against a horse that you think has dressed up form. You don't dislike the horse, connections, etc. You have looked at the race and concluded (right or wrong) that the horse looks better than it really is.
