“I still contend that the rules of Quidditch prove that JK Rowling was never a sports fan.”

hahaha – not that i disagree, but i’m curious as to why, specifically.

The game ends when the snitch is caught. You have the seekers flying around trying to catch the snitch for 150, while in the meantime the others try to score goals worth 10 points apiece. Everything but the snitch chasing is pretty much a distraction from the key goal, which is for the seeker to grab the snitch. It’s kind of nonsensical.
