Jimmy isn't demanding to sidle up to Hamlin on the billboard. He doesn't want the franchise, he wants a spot on the team, and he's certainly earned that.
He's not claiming Jimmy has poor character as a person, just that his character makes him susceptible to shortcuts in the law, which has actually proven both truer and less true than Chuck even knows.

Like the Cassel example, you can admire a lot about him and still not want him under center for your team in your chosen profession.
