Actually, I don't think Snape will be talking about how nice 
it was to get rid of Sirius, any more then he does about James. 
I honestly don't think Snape really wants to think about the 
"typically Griffindor pointless heroic death" that either James or 
Sirius suffered too much, though I have no doubt that he'll use 
Sirius, like James, as a bad example. I honestly suspect he wants to
die in a splendidly heroic death himself, subconciously, and resents 
the two of them for getting there first...
