"Everyone seems to know what I'm doing,'' B.J. Wie said last week from his office at the University of Hawaii. "Nothing is firmed up. I have not made any decisions. We're still working on a number of things.''

Uhm, isn't it Michelle's decision? Or shouldn't it be? I wouldn't begrudge a dad the option to give advice, and he's still her legal guardian and all that jazz, but "I have not made any decisions" sounds a whole lot like his daughter is along for a ride on the BJ Machine*.

I hang out with a girl once, who's nickname was "BJ Machine"... good old times. You don't refer to her by any chance, do you?

As a father myself, I would have to say no, it's not her decision. A person her age doesn't have the wisdom to make a decision of that magnitude.

And her money-grubbing (seemingly) father does?

To be honest, the decisions to be made are difficult ones for anyone. I have know idea what her father's intentions are. Maybe they're good, maybe not. The fact remains that she is still in many ways a child. Being able to hit a golf ball like an adult does not make one an adult.

I know that a lot of people would not agree with me. That's OK too.

I think it's pretty stupid for golfers to turn professional before the age of 18 to be honest. She needs to play alongside the rest of the amateurs until she can legally make the decision on her own, and then she can do whatever she pleases.

I don't care how good a player is, they shouldn't be playing with the professionals until they are adults.

Hell, you can't vote until you are 18. Why should you be able to play professional golf that young?

I know she helps the game by playing in LPGA events, but I am entitled to my opinion, and I am not afraid to speak it.

As for the BJ Machine, I'm not sure how to respond to that one.

Or buy porn or cigarettes.

Despite the title of this thread?
