Poll question: So, is it wrong to root against the US?

http://www.worldbaseballclassic.com/2006/index.jsp

2-1 Mexico, Bottom 8th.

I'm leading hard towards no; the umps have flat-out sucked so far; at least two BLATANTLY obvious calls in the series blown in the USA's favor, and the crowd booing everytime Mexico gets a base hit, gets a walk, or scores a run, and erupting in applause when the US gets an out in the field, gets a hit, or just about everything. Damn nationalists.

1. I was at the USA v. Mexico game last week

The Mexican fans rooted in the same way. They even had some offensive chants. But that is sports. I say horrible things about Michigan when they play Illinois. Does that make me an anti-Michigan bogot?

2. Of course.

But I say that because my HS social studies teacher went to Michigan. :D
