Have some people sworn to be negative all the time?
Because if things turn out to be bad, they can brag about them being right in predicting bad thigs. If, instead, they turn out to be nice and shiny, they'll forget they made a lousy prediction and they'll be happy for the team.
It's simple actually, it's like placing a bet against your beloved team. If the team loses, you make money, if they win, you lose money but you are happy your fav. team won.
