In an aside to a post about an altercation on a Seattle Metro bus, David Schmader has this to say about the phrase, “I don’t know who I’m supposed to root for….”

It’s nothing really, but the grammatically preferable version of this phrase is “for whom I’m supposed to root,” which is the most hilarious collection of words I’ve encountered since “Academy Award-winning screenwriter Ben Affleck.”
