And one is shaped like Bud Selig

Hey you ... you, the one sitting on the computer, browsing the Internet.

You've probably bought or sold something on eBay ... or at least wanted to buy or sell something on eBay.

Well, here's the latest example of how the Internet has made it possible to sell almost anything to somebody. A Colorado woman is selling a handful of "slightly used" sunflower seeds supposedly munched and spit out by Rockies outfielder Matt Holliday. The story has been reported by several Colorado news organizations. The woman who's selling the seeds apparently scrounged them when fans were allowed on the field for a fireworks display late last month.  She policed the area where Holliday was standing in left field and she says she was told the opposing team chewed gum -- so there, that proves the seeds must have been spit out by Holliday.

Anyway, if you want to get in on the act, the seeds are still for sale the last I checked.  The bidding was up to $18.19.
