Dorothy:
  I thought that Krum wasn't handsome, or at least he wasn't described that 
way.  He was hook nosed, looked grouchy, and was duck footed.  I know Harry 
and Ron were surprised when they saw him walk because he had been so 
graceful on the quidditch field.  So, I thought the girls were after him 
because he was a famous quidditch player.  Of course, this is just the way I 
read it.
