Honestly, Quiddich is a nonsense game just designed to make the protagonist more important. Imagine in a football game that if you’re up by 45 points but not only could a player score 48 points at once but also end the game. People would know that was bullshite. JK Rowling clearly doesn’t understand sports if she thinks this sport could exist no matter what fantasy scenario.
yeah. the whole concept is stupid. "so we all beat the shite out of each other scoring worthless points while he plays the real game where if he catches it we win? no thanks"

It’s a stupid sport and playing the real-life version is more embarrassing than people who dress up like Spock at Trek Conventions.

JK Rowling sold her rights to HP. She and I have pretty much the same rights to that. I’m happy for her. She cleaned up. And I agree with her trans position. I also support the right of those who OWN the Quidditch brand - as stupid as that is - to do whatever they want with it.

The game needs Harry Potter much more than Rowling needs the game to be called Quidditch.

I’m still amazed that the prog filth melted over Rowling’s statement that people who menstruate are women. She’s aligned with the prog agenda on 95% of their bullshite, but she had the gall to say “the phrase ‘people who menstruate’ is superfluous. There are already several English words for that type of person (woman, female, lady, broad, etc)” So they cancel her?
She retconned Dumbledore as a homosexual, for Christ’s sake. If she isn’t woke enough, the entire user base of this site is getting sent to the re-education camps.
It brings to mind this piece from the BBC

So they all started to play this game in real life because of their love of Harry Potter. But now they don't like the person who wrote Harry Potter, so instead of not playing the game anymore, they're just going to change the name but still keep all the rules and stuff and somehow that makes it all better? Makes a lot of sense 
It's like if there was a crusade against James Naismith because people decided they didn't like his political opinions and their big solution was to just call basketball "hoop ball" or something and pretend that it somehow makes any difference whatsoever.

The leagues say there are a few reasons for the name change. Among them is that the name "quidditch" is trademarked by Warner Bros., which produced the "Harry Potter" movies, and as a result the sport's expansion has been limited in its sponsorship and broadcast opportunities.
I would make them shut down the league and sue for royalties and damages.

That’s the least athletic looking “team” I’ve ever seen. Pathetic
