A Monday morning MultiCultClassics Monologue…
• According to various stories published nationwide, there’s a growing disinterest in O.J. Simpson memorabilia. Items on eBay continue to generate lukewarm responses at best. “Prior to O.J.’s criminal issue, he was a player like Joe Montana, a fan favorite, well-liked," said a sports memorabilia seller. “In general, we don’t sell O.J. Simpson stuff. There really isn’t much demand for it. People do recognize him for his football-playing abilities, but at the same time people are turned off by him.” Guess the only person really desperate for O.J. Simpson stuff is, well, O.J. Simpson.
• A tentative agreement between General Motors and the United Auto Workers would allow GM to shut down two plants in Michigan and Indiana, in addition to potentially closing more facilities. Guess GM cars are about as popular as O.J. Simpson memorabilia.

Interesting, re: OJ.
I'd have thought the opposite-- that his notoriety would have driven up the prices for his memorabilia.
