Sydney (84770) has inspired me to a new (at least as far as I know)
theory on the jinx that has allegedly been put on the post of the
DADA-teacher.

I presume that it's not just a rumor but that the post is actually jinxed.

I think the jinx could go something like that: "Everybody who takes
the job of DADA-teacher will come to grief because of his/her greatest
weakness within a year."

Cases in point:
Quirrell: Weak will
Lockhard: Vanity
Lupin: Being a werewolf
Moody: Paranoia
Umbridge: Imperiousness

Go ahead, criticize my theory, for the sake of progress of Potterology!
