All I know and can say is an old an old adage that is used in poker and with gamblers in general.

If someone says this guy is a really good guy or a nice person this is because that person does not have a problem lending money out. If they say he is a real A-- or Jerk or whatever it usually means that he doesn't lend money out. I think it is pretty clear that defenders of the Wiz have a financial interest of some sort or have a future interest possibly in the wings. I suppose you can't blame anyone for trying to protect their interests. However with me or Larry S we have no interest to protect with the Wiz so we can tell him to "Jump off a Cliff" anytime we want.
