I've got a small number of cards that I have pretty much because of scandals... Outside of baseball, OJ Simpson, Kobe, Lance Armstrong, Mike Vick, Tiger Woods, Marion Jones, Abe Attell, Jim Tressel, Joe Paterno come to mind.. Now if only I could find a card of Danny Almonte.
Not that I feel any attachment with these guys, BUT their falls are quite historic. Without the scandals, these were somewhat historic athletes/coaches in terms of sports, but the scandals and lessons to be learned from their mistakes have crossed that line into mainstream historical context..
