Something occurred to me about Quidditch, the most stupid sport ever invented.

First, people with the best broomsticks are allowed to use those broomsticks as an advantage. That’s in no way fair. And it’s been mentioned that the best broomsticks are expensive too, so if you can’t afford them, you’re just at a disadvantage. A fact which you can suck on. Thus, the rich kids have an advantage over the poor kids.

Oh, sure, Harry’s beaten the kids with super-better broomsticks but that doesn’t seem to make much sense to me; it just says, “Look how awesome Harry is”.

Second, why not have two kids fly around looking for Snitches the whole game, since that’s the only thing that ends the game? They’ve said that once a game lasted two weeks – did nobody even consider giving up? Or is Quidditch just that popular?

And third, and the worst part that hasn’t been noticed yet – the points won by playing a game of Quidditch go towards winning the house cups. Shouldn’t the points only be won by good schoolwork and obedience? But no, a vast number of the points won go towards the HOUSE cup, and not a seperate Quidditch cup.

Owing to the fact that rich kids with good broomsticks have an advantage over regular kids, this means that wealthy jocks are more likely to win a cup intended to promote hard work and intelligence. How much sense does that make?

And you know what else about the House Cup points? Teachers seem to be allowed to choose how many points to give and take, so if they have favorites for some reason they are likely to give more points. But Quidditch points are pre-determined.

I hate Quidditch as much as I hate Harry Potter. Partly because it was invented by Rowling to give him more glory.
