It's the coverup, stupid
In late 1989, amid scandal, House Speaker Newt Gingrich resigned. After Louisiana Rep. Bob Livingston was elected as Speaker by the GOP House Caucus, he too resigned after admitting to an extramarital affair -- an amazing development since the House had impeached President Bill Clinton for lying about his own extramarital affair.

The tragedy consumed life in the country far beyond the football world. On Wednesday the Tannadice club had their request to postpone Wednesday's encounter with Hearts denied by the Scottish Premier League. On Friday, the entire United squad attended O'Donnell's funeral in Hamilton. Barry Ferguson was one of the countless luminaries of the Scottish game who also attended, and, as a fellow resident of the Lanarkshire town, was personally affected by O'Donnell's passing.
