Perfect example of cognitive bias. The positive talk when the Royals is largely ignored because you already believe they're good and the talking heads aren't telling you anything new. But when it's on the other team, it's not the same shit you've always heard, so it seems to register a lot of more - particularly if it's over-the-top a bit and annoying.
