I still believe the Pacman-Krista affair wouldn’t have been blown out of proportion if only they possessed one thing that celebrity public figures should always be conscious about: discretion.

Pinoys will always love the underdog, and public sympathy appears to be tilted now towards Pacman’s aggrieved wife who’s stood by him through dimes and diamonds, Secosana and Chanel. In fact, the whole situation has given rise to an unofficial group called Team Jinkee.

Coming in a close second to Team Pacquiao, Team Jinkee stands for long-suffering, ‘martyr’ Filipina wives who have to endure the pitfalls of marriage in a macho, male-dominated society like the Philippines.

In happier times: Jinkee Pacquiao, Manny, her sister, and identical twin sister Janet. How true that Pacman also dated the other twin?

The next question is: how will l’affaire Krista, if it continues, affect Mr. Pacquiao’s political stock? Or even that of Matt Ranillo? How about the box office earnings of forthcoming Manny-Krista starrer Wapakman? This early, rabid Team Jinkee members are calling for a boycott of anything that’s K-related.

We think that getting even is the best revenge, and Jinkee should just tell her boxer-husband this:

“Manny, I’ve had enough of your womanizing. I’ve had enough of talks between you and Krista.

“I will now go shopping. For a YACHT. With a boytoy in it.”
