Hear, hear (though I wouldn't mind seeing him and Harry play Quidditch 
 together <g>).  

Ron has already distinguished himself quite amazingly, even in the 
eyes of his schoolmates:  the chess game and the loads of points he 
got Gryffindor for it (& unlike Harry, Hermione, and Neville, it 
wasn't just making up for points he'd just lost), and then the Award 
for Special Services to the School, again with Cup-winning points, and 
for heaven's sake, the closing of the Chamber of Secrets.  His heroism 
vs. Sirius, unfortunately, will have to go unsung.  But surely even 
those who tend to skip right over him and focus on Harry are starting 
to get the picture that Ron is no run-of-the-mill kid.
