I had a similar experience and reached the same conclusion!
I never barrack for anyone other than the Saints, but instead I will 'anti-support' whoever I happen to hate the most wishing for injuries and debilitating disappointment.

Had to back the Pies to beat us in Round 21, 2002, to win a tipping competition, as my rival actually picked us.
Wouldn't say I wanted us to lose but wasnt totally devastated by the narrow loss. Needed the cash!
