I cannot believe that Sirius was a Slytherin, the description the
Sorting Hat gives us (powerhungry, ambitious) just does not fit him.
And as Christina has said earlier, we haven't met any nice Slytherins
so far. To me they all look like a very unpleasant lot. 

And I don't think that Hagrid would have borrowed Sirius' motorbike if
he had been a Slytherin, do you? In my opinion Hagrid just doesn't
like Slytherins, after all he was in school with Tom Riddle, and it is
very improbable that he would have *comforted* a Slytherin. Remember
that this was what he did when he met Sirius at the Potter's house.

I cannot even see Wormtail in Slytherin because he is such a coward.

Just my 2 cents.
