If I were Sansa I'd want to do the same things to him too.

She started out as a spoiled and naive "princess" type who lost her direwolf (to me that has to mean something in GRRM land - like with Robb) through pretty much her own fault and sided with Joffrey over her own family on the trip from Winterfell to King's Landing.
The direwolves definitely served as omens of what will happen to the Starks. Like the stag killing the direwolf mother foreshadowed Ned's death by Joffrey, Nymeria being run off foreshadowed Arya being separated from the Starks and being on the run, when Bran senses that Shaggy Dog was growing more distant ever day foreshadowed Rickon leaving for Skagos, and Ghost starting out being the smallest pup and growing into the biggest direwolf foreshadows Jon's rise from being a bastard to probably the most important man in Westeros.
I've always thought that Ned killing Lady foreshadowed him killing Sansa by giving her to the Lannisters. But now that she is out from under the Lannisters, maybe it's more symbolic of her innocence being "killed" by the Lannisters. A crackpot theory that I guess could happen (but I doubt it) is that it foreshadowed a Stark killing her.
ETA: Or maybe Sansa is killed in the place or because of Ayra, just like Lady was killed for Nymeria's actions.

I got a question: why didn't the Wildings just kill Craster long ago? They knew what he was up to with fricking his daughters and sacrificing his sons to the Others, as well providing support to the Night's Watch. He's supporting their two biggest enemies, plus he was doing other things that even the Thenns would find appalling, so why didn't Mance just send out like 5 guys to go kill him?

Wasn't Craster's son offerings basically protection money that he was paying to the Others to keep the Wildlings off his back?

Personally, I thought it was to keep the Others themselves off his back.

Have y'all talked about the WWs potentially being former Starks and that they're pissed off because they never got Brandon and Rickard's bodies?

Ummm...no. And I'm not sure if I even want to hear that crackpot theory.

It's something I was reading about on AFoIaF earlier.

I was just kidding. Go ahead and lay it on us (this is the crackpot thread for goodness sakes). I really haven't heard that one yet.

When a Stark dies, they join the council of the White Walkers. Maybe in the past, when the Starks got old, they left to go "hunting".... But they were going to join their ancestors.
The tombs in Winterfell are empty.
So, to summarize:
The Others wearing the sweet armor: Dead Starks. The Kings Of Winter.

Considering Bran the Builder was supposedly the founder of House Stark, and he built the Wall to keep the White Walkers out of Westeros, I don't see how the WWs could be Starks if they were around when the 1st Stark was still living.

Crackpot theories I have for the show...
Jon Snow will not get stabbed, or anything else. They will dump that like they dumped LSH. Beric didn't translate to TV well and DD know that now.
Arya will either kill Littlefinger, Sansa, Cersi, or Tommen. Her arc is setting up a major kill.
One of these three will resurface and provide impact on a larger scale: Greyjoys, Warlocks/shadow binders, and Direwolves.
Gendry will receive a gold medal in the summer Olympic for rowing.

Going with Varys on that.

what if it was a Stark who laid with a white walker? Night's King? Old Nan said his name was Brandon.

Ok, so if WWs are Starks, and R+L=J, then what kind of powers does Jon have as a Targ-Stark?

What I want to know is over how many years Craster was sacrificing his sons. That would mean the Others never "disappeared" if he had been sacrificing to them for 40 years or so.

The Night's King was the 13th lord commander of the NW. That is without a doubt him on the show with the crown like head. Old Nan told Bran the nights king story. She said some believe he was a Bolton, a Magnar of Skagos, an Umber, a Flint, a Norrey, or a Woodfoot. However, she says the Night's King was a Stark and brother to the King in the North and she makes reference to his name being Brandon
