Theon's crap is small potatoes, what I have in mind is more them dicking about around Moat Cailin and shit making it harder for the North to keep fighting ensuring they'll lose sooner (barring cloak and dagger shit like what happened) and then the Crown coming after them.
Had Balon been rational in the least he'd have hit the Lannisters as hard as he could them being distracted and far more wealthy than the Northerners all the while indirectly helping drag out Robb's rebellion longer and reducing the danger of the second revolt going the way of the first.
I think them going after the North is BS on Martin's part because he needed to find something to keep pressure on Robb even though he's never losing battles, only it took completely stupid thinking on Balon's part to make that happen, thinking that goes beyond my suspension of disbelief.
