Is there anything in the HP world that bothers you?

I second that emotion.  There are a LOT of holes in the great
sport of wizards.  Like why is there only one set of players
per house?  No 'junior varsity' nor second string,
Gryffindor had to play without any Seeker at all when
Harry was in hospital.  Every kid who had passed their
first-year broom flying class should be out there
playing Quiddich with their mates just for fun, if not actually
on a team.
