T.D. over T.O.; Broncos Bucking After Win

LaDainian Tomlinson, San Diego Chargers star running back, was named the AP NFL Player of the Year on Thursday. He's had a tremendous season both on the field and on the eBay marketplace. Over 14,600 T.D. items sold since early November and reached their top rice of $46 per item the first week mid December, the week after he broke the NFL single season record for touchdowns on Dec. 11. By comparison, 5,800 Terrell Owens-related items have sold over the same two months at $28 each. Apparently, eBay buyers can really appreciate a great on-field performance or they’re simply just sick of T.O, maybe a bit of both.

After winning one of the most exhilarating football games in recent memory, the Boise State Broncos finally saw a blip in sales on eBay. Despite going undefeated during the season, the hype hadn't carried over to eBay sales as the team made it into Fiesta Bowl. But the day after the Broncos Jan. 1 OT win over Oklahoma, over 150 BSU items sold (vs. just 3 the Tuesday before), not including tickets for the game that sold on the site.
