Who'd you rather caddie for? Vijay or Jackie Gallagher-Smith?

So, can anyone tell me what a caddie for Vijay Singh has in common with a caddie for Jackie Gallagher-Smith?

Seriously, folks …… what’s your take on this Gary Robinson character, the guy who claims Gallagher-Smith made him “an unwitting sperm donor?” The AP story says Robinson is now “out of work as a caddie and is pursuing a career as a professional golfer.” Listen. Hear that!? It’s Tiger quaking. No …… wait. Sorry. That was me cackling. This story just has so much potential for cheap jokes and jabs. Alas, I am above that sort of thing (and way too busy today). So it’s up to you, guys….. fire away!

As one who knows Jackie Gallagher-Smith I fear for the public's mis-perception of her. She is a kind, caring, extremely nice person.

This Robinson guy has got to be the world's biggest sleezebag. There's no way Jackie did what he claims. He needs a shrink to deal with his delusions. He may have "desired" her...she is, after all, very attractive...but his hormones and his head need to have a talk!

Oh please people. She knows she did it. If she didn't then why doesn't she offer to have a DNA test at his expense to expose him. You people have had the wool pulled over your eyes by this middle aged hormone raging golfer. The rumors on the tour were there a long time before this finally came out in the public eye. It was quite obvious the two had more than a professional relationship. For you to just blast the guy is wrong. She is hiding behind the Florida legal system that does not require her to submit to a DNA test. As for Robinson's claim that he was an unwilling donor for her, this is ludicrous. Was he raped? Did he not know what the result of the action was going to be? Did he not have the ability to stop himself or protect them both? Gimme a break.

I'm from Gallagher-Smith's home town and have been keeping up with this scandal from the beginning. Both sides in this case are obviously lying, or at least withholding the entire truth. My take on the story is that the baby is probably the caddies; however, Robinson should take some responsibily for his actions. It's not like he didn't understand the risk of having sex. To blame this on Jackie is pretty low in my book.

I was born and raised in Marion, Indiana, Jackie's hometown. The Gallagher's are considered the "First Family" of Marion. We all make mistakes, not that Jackie was at the guily end of this unforunate situation. I will support her and the Gallagher family. I would like to say something to Jackie though... Jackie, next time you want a baby just let me know instead of getting some loser involved that does not appreciate you and will not keep his stupid mouth shut.

There is far too much of this kind of stuff happening these days. I believe she did sleep with the caddie, and could have concieved the child. All of you people that raise (her)Jackie Gallagher-Smith up higher then other have simply missed it. If she has nothing to hide, then take the darn test and prove us wrong. It is none of our business, but we as fan, and former fans would like to think that we are still pulling Smith in this mess. My take on it is " if you laydown with dogs, you get fleas, and Smith should be itching by now,
CONFESS!!!!!! The truth shall set you free.
There are only two people I feel bad for in all of this and that is
1. The child
2. The husband
The husband will not leave her, because she is the primary bread winner in the home, I'm sure, but Mr. Smith, find yourself a very good lawyer, and get paid.

The test only proves who the father is, not that she tried to get pregnant. They both knew that sex could lead to pregnancy; 26 is old enough to know. The lawsuit is ridiculous, but she should be ashamed of herself for the affair.

I have known the Robinson's for over 20 years, and Gary, Jr. for all of his adult life. To call him a "sleezebag" or a "low-life" or a "loser" is simply drivel running from the mouths of ignorant asses. He is an honorable kid who made a mistake with a woman who should have known better(and probably did). Before you start calling names, remember, it takes two to tango. It's obvious, by her refusal to DNA test, of her guilt or innocence in this matter. And if her husband is not leaving her because he wants a "ride" on the gravy train, then look no further for the "loser" in this drama.
