The stock market is a similar thing. Individuals rarely outperform the market by picking stocks because individuals have finite information, while the market (i.e. all investors in teh aggregate) has all information.
I don't think I ever said that fans have a better track record. I just said that GM's make plenty of moves that fans immediately identify as poor and fans are correct a lot of the time.
