While in college, a buddy of mine loved to show up at my games and leather lung me the whole game (hoops). Once, he brought a couple of friends, and they started in on me during warm-ups. They were sitting around some partisons who, of course, egged them on when I made calls against their team, but these folks couldn't quite figure out why these guys were arguing ALL calls -- not just the ones that went against them.
Finally, one guy sitting there tapped my friend on the shoulder and said, "who exactly are you rooting for?" My friend responded, "nobody. That's my best friend out there officiating." To which the fan replied, "boy, I'm sure he feels the same way about you."
We laughed hard about that at dinner that night. They bought.
