Anthony Weiner.

Went from being co-chair of the Progressives of the House, some 60 members, to out of office.

He was looking at competing for Speaker in the sweet by and by, and now he is a memory.

Paterno. Easy answer.

Nobody will ever see his picture again without visualizing Sandusky sodomizing children. Paterno enabled it.

I thought tiger woods was pretty bad. But I don't think you can top molestation cover-up

Joe Pa

Went from a coach of integrity and a leader of young men to someone who covered up the biggest scandal in college sports history.

Tyson has at least regained some popularity through film and etc.

Paterno is pretty bad given what he covered up.

I still go with OJ though. He had reached not just top sport status, but movie star/celebrity status as well post-playing years. We've now had multiple murders (with arguably the biggest televised trial ever), armed robbery, and jail time. And who knows if he's even finished.

Pete Rose - Cost him the HOF, but still not to Paterno's level

Lance Armstrong has to be on the list, but clearly well behind Paterno.

Definitely OJ...killed to people violently, lost everything, lost all positive admiration, was hit with a Hugh judgement for the murders, now is in jail, etc. He was iconic!

Don't agree at all. Ojs crime could very well have been a crime of passion. Paterno blatantly covered up a child molestation by a sexual predator and allowed it to continue to happen.

The all time winningest college football coach is now synonymous with pedophilia and child rape. Great legacy Joe.
