Blue Eyes:
It is however, canon that James was a seeker. He is shown as playing a snitch 
that he "nicked" from the quidditch ball trunk and even sketched a snitch on 
his test before tracing lily's initials. This interview may be a fraud, they 
do exist. Also, my books have grown legs and walked away, but I could swear on 
my grandmother's grave that there is a reference to James being a seeker when 
Harry's made a seeker. I could be getting it confused with the movie though. 

Taryn:
That's not proof that he was a seeker. So he played with the Snitch. He was showing off his reflexes. It certainly wouldn't have worked with a quaffle. :P He's a Quidditch player, and the Snitch is the best thing to show off reflexes and the prettiest to draw.

That is movie contamination, though. It's only in the PS movie that Hermione takes Harry to see his dad's name on the Quidditch trophy, says it's in his blood, blah blah blah.

It seems hard to believe that QuickQuotes over at the Leaky Cauldron would be hosting a fradulent interview. For referece, the quotes are from an online chat at Scholastic.com on October 16, 2000.
