Blood Boil is a permanent 25% attack speed and movement speed buff on your carry, which is more sustained damage than any support item in Season 3 provides.

Paired with an attack-speed carry. Blood Boil on a Vayne or a Kog'Maw is a larger damage contribution than the support could ever make personally.
In lane on its own. Nunu has no lockdown before six, so a poke lane simply walks him down while he buffs a carry who cannot fight back.
Not modelled in this number: Summoner's Insight, Wanderer, Meditation, Greed, Biscuiteer, Explorer, Wealth, Pickpocket.
