This is one of my favorite theories. I have thought Bagman was bad 
for a year or two. In re-reading GOF, it hit me like a ton of bricks 
for all the reasons cited by Kneasy. There has been debate about this 
previously.  I still think he is also an unregistered animagus ala 
Rita Skeeter. In GOF and OOTP, there is a wasp flying around, and 
Bagman is always dressed, no matter the occasion in his old Wimberly 
Wasp uniform. In GOF, there is a wasp flying around when Hermione is 
helping Harry with some of spells. Wasp!Bagman checking on Harry's 
progress..... In OOTP, a wasp was buzzing around duing the HIstory 
exam in which Harry nodded off, and you know the rest. Could Wasp!
Bagman been spying on Harry? 

Oh, and on a side note, while I am at it, instead of using a pensieve 
to get baby Harry's thoughts, how about Occulemency/Legitimency 
(sorry about the spelling)?
