Well, for example, let's say you are in a football pool where everyone picks games. The aim of it is to have the best record, so you pick the teams you feel that will win. But, that doesn't mean that you wouldn't hope that another team would win. For example, if your favorite team was really bad, like my Dolphins last year or the Lions this year. If you picked the Lions every week, there is a 16 loss deficit you have between pretty much everyone else. That's a huge margin to have to make up. So, you might pick against the Lions, but be actually rooting for them. Though, in my picks, I did pick the Dolphins every week last year. But, just the explain.
