The truth is, anyone who's ever felt they were screwed on a job when it was given to someone else who wasn't qualified, is going to be right there, supporting Rodgers, to the dying end.
This whole thing with him is playing out like every other work place drama, except it's getting more publicity.
You can bet that a lot of people will support Rodgers simply because they believe that bringing Love in was like handing that job/promotion, to someone else, even though you knew in your mind, it was yours.
