   Ok. One popint of contention here. If memory serves me correctly: 
In CoS, the match against the Slytherins, doesn't Malfoy have the 
better broom. As a matter of fact, the whole Slytherin team has Nimbus 
2001s. Oh, and there is that little matter about Harry catching the 
snitch with a broken arm, AND a rogue bludger chasing him. Who was the 
underdog then? Yet, Harry still bested Malfoy.

Just my instance of Harry, for once, being the underdog.
