Professional Sports General Manager comments on whether he'd want Harry Potter to play seeker on a pro Quidditch team:
"Injury-prone bastard. There's only a 3-game season, yet he only played in 9 games his entire 6-year career. Some of this was outside his control, but seriously? You can't count on the guy.
1st year: Recovering in hospital after getting his face grabbed by kind-of-dead guy. Gryffindor is crushed, loses Inter-House Cup.
2nd year: Season cancelled because Harry doesn't use his Parsel-tonguedness quick enough to prevent people from being attacked.
3rd year: Harry plays full season. Team wins cup, despite losing first game to Hufflepuff because Harry passes out because of Dementors.
4th year: Triwizard Tournament cancels season. Harry flies broomstick in tournament anyway, because he's a show-off.
5th year: Harry Potter is banned from competition by Dolores Umbridge due to personal conduct. POSSIBLE BEHAVIORAL ISSUES? RED FLAG.
6th year: vs Hufflepuff: doesn't miss game, but is knocked unconscious and doesn't finish it. Loses game. Ravenclaw: Gets detention due to more personal conduct. Can no one control this kid?
7th year: Harry goes camping in the woods with hot girl, doesn't play. Lacks dedication to game.
Harry's Record:
v. Slytherin: 5-0
v. Ravenclaw: 1-0
v. Hufflepuff: 1-2
So unless your team's victory advances a JK Rowling plot point, what you've got with Potter is a .500 keeper. (Seriously, he has a losing record against Hufflepuff.)"
