Early winners and loses for the week

Winner of the Week: Neil Diamond

Neil was named the MusiCares Person of the Year at their annual charity fundraiser, which benefits musicians who have fallen on hard times. Diamond's career goes back to the 1960s is still going strong and is putting together a tour. How is this guy not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.?

Loser of the Week: Alex Rodriguez
A-roid admitted on Monday that he used "performance-enhancing drugs" in 2001 and 2003 with the Texas Rangers. Among the many excuses that A-roid has used, he has included: "I was pressured to perform" and the old teenager standby "everybody else was doing it." Nice role model.

The photo of A-roid sums it up. Big arms and little head. The Yankees may think they have the loser of the decade now. As much as he fails in the post season, I always refer to him as Mr. April.
