Travis Kelce is no stranger to breaking records on the field, and now he's doing so off as well ... with a game-used jersey auctioning off for a hefty price.

The jersey, worn by Travis in the Chiefs 2019 victory against the Los Angeles Chargers in Mexico City, and a game in which TK scored a TD just went for an eye-watering $37K on Goldin Auctions. The sale marks an all-time record for a Travis game-used item for the auction house.

Auction owner, Ken Goldin, tells us, "This is an all-time record for a Travis Kelce game-used item. He has always been popular but the success of the Chiefs, as well as the publicity he's gotten around his relationship with Taylor Swift, has added to his popularity and awareness among collectors."

Ken's clearly stating the obvious, though ... as the frenzy surrounding his romance with Taylor has been like nothing we've seen before. Not all NFL fans have been happy with Swift's presence at the games, stating she's been a distraction ... especially during broadcasts.

Travis Kelce no es ajeno a romper récords en el campo y ahora lo está haciendo fuera, ya que una camiseta usada se subastó por un precio considerable.

La camiseta usada por Travis en 2019 durante la victoria contra los Chargers de Los Ángeles es el objeto en cuestión. La suma alcanzó los $37K en Goldin subastas. La venta marca un récord histórico para un Travis en el mundo de las subastas.

El propietario de la subasta, Ken Goldin, nos dice que está casi seguro de que la publicidad en torno a la relación de Kelce con Taylor Swift ha aumentado su popularidad entre los coleccionistas.

Ken está diciendo algo bastante obvio, sin embargo, el frenesí que rodea su romance con Taylor no ha sido como nada que hayamos visto antes. No todos los fans de la NFL han estado contentos con la presencia de Swift en los juegos, afirmando que ha sido una distracción, especialmente durante las transmisiones.

La carrera de Candace Parker en la WNBA no ha terminado todavía. La superestrella le dice a TMZ Sports que tiene planes de volver a la cancha la próxima temporada si todo sale bien.

Por supuesto, hubo preguntas sobre su futuro en el baloncesto después de que la alero de 6 pies y 4 pulgadas se viera obligada a perderse la victoria de las Aces en las Finales de la WNBA, así como gran parte de la temporada 2023, mientras luchaba contra una lesión en el pie. Sin embargo, cuando la vimos en Los Ángeles esta semana no parecía alguien dispuesta a colgar las zapatillas todavía.

"Estoy sana", nos dijo, "y quiero jugar".

Parker dijo que el proceso de recuperación de su lesión en el pie va bien.

En cuanto al número de temporadas que le quedan a la jugadora de 37 años si su cuerpo vuelve a estar en forma... dice que no está muy segura.

Candace Parker's WNBA career ain't over just yet ... the superstar hooper tells TMZ Sports she's got plans to return to the hardwood next season -- if she's healthy.

Of course, there were questions about her basketball future after the 6-foot-4 forward was forced to miss the Aces' WNBA Finals win -- as well as a large portion of the 2023 season -- while battling a foot injury.

However, when we got her out in Los Angeles this week ... she sure didn't seem like someone ready to hang up her sneakers just yet.

"If I'm healthy," she told us, "I want to play."

Right now, Parker said the recovery process from her foot injury is going well.

When it comes to how many seasons the 37-year-old might have left in her if her body gets back into playing shape ... she says she isn't quite sure.

Ken Hudson Campbell, que interpretó a Papá Noel en "Mi pobre Angelito", espera un milagro navideño luego de poner en marcha un GoFundMe para pedir ayuda tras su reciente diagnóstico de cáncer.

Campbell  —que también ha aparecido en otros clásicos queridos durante sus 35 años de carrera como "El día de la marmota" y "Armageddon"— fue diagnosticado a finales de octubre después de que un tumor "elusivamente creciera en la parte inferior de su boca y comenzara a invadir sus dientes".

La declaración en el GoFundMe dice que está programada una cirugía de 10 horas para extirpar el tumor el jueves, procedimiento que también eliminará una gran parte de su mandíbula.

Además, se someterá a cirugía reconstructiva y rondas de radiación y quimioterapia y tendrá un largo período de recuperación de 6 meses.

Desafortunadamente, Ken perdió su seguro de salud SAG-AFTRA en enero de 2022 tras la pandemia y aunque ha encontrado un nuevo seguro, todavía se prevén importantes gastos de bolsillo, de ahí el GFM.

Al momento de escribir esto, ha alcanzado un poco más de $58K de su objetivo de $100K.

Ken Hudson Campbell -- who played Santa in "Home Alone" -- is hoping for a Christmas miracle ... after kickstarting a GoFundMe for help after his recent cancer diagnosis.

Campbell -- who's also appeared in other beloved classics such as "Groundhog Day" and "Armageddon" during his 35-year career span -- was diagnosed in late Oct after a tumor "elusively grew on the bottom of his mouth and began encroaching on his teeth."

The statement on the GoFundMe says he's scheduled for a 10-hour surgery to remove the tumor Thursday ... which will also remove a large part of his jawbone.

Additionally, he'll undergo reconstructive surgery and rounds of radiation and chemo ... with a lengthy 6-month recovery period.

Unfortunately, Ken lost his SAG-AFTRA health insurance in Jan 2022 following the pandemic ... and even though he's found new insurance, substantial out-of-pocket costs are still anticipated -- hence the GFM.

At the time of writing, it has reached a little over $58K of its $100K goal.

50 Cent se está preparando para lanzar un documental sobre Diddy y su reciente drama, pero el dinero que se obtenga del proyecto será para apoyar una buena causa.

El próximo documental del rapero de "Get Rich Or Die Tryin" busca poner de relieve las diversas acusaciones en contra de Diddy que han surgido en las últimas semanas y el miércoles el rapero anunció que los beneficios se destinarán a la caridad.

Un representante de 50 Cent y G-Unit Film and Television confirmó a TMZ Hip Hop que el documental está actualmente en desarrollo y que todos los ingresos de G-Unit Film & Television provenientes del filme se destinarán a las víctimas de agresión sexual y violación.

Para acompañar el anuncio, 50 compartió un nuevo clip de la entrevista con el ex artista de Bad Boy Mark Curry, en donde el rapero de "Bad Boy 4 Life" afirma que Diddy solía organizar fiestas y servir alcohol y píldoras en las bebidas de las mujeres presentes.

50 también lanzó algunos golpes contra su otro enemigo Rick Ross en un trailer, al usar su polémica canción "U.O.E.N.O.", cuya letra habla sobre deslizar éxtasis (molly) en las copas de champán de las mujeres cuando no están mirando.

Diddy no está dejando pasar todas estas acusaciones en su contra sin dar la pelea. Más temprano este miércoles, dijo que "ya era suficiente" y negó todas las denuncias como un intento por robarle dinero. Esto, en respuesta a una nueva demanda en su contra.

50 Cent is getting ready to roll out a documentary on Diddy and his recent drama, but the money made from the project is slated to benefit a good cause.

The "Get Rich Or Die Tryin'" rapper's upcoming documentary plans to highlight the many accusations hurled Diddy's way in the past few weeks -- and he announced on Wednesday that the profits are going to charity.

A rep for 50 Cent and G-Unit Film and Television confirmed to TMZ Hip Hop that this documentary is currently in development and all G-Unit Film & Television proceeds from this Documentary will go to victims of Sexual Assault and Rape.

To accompany the announcement, 50 shared a new interview clip featuring former Bad Boy artist Mark Curry ... where the "Bad Boy 4 Life" rapper claimed Diddy used to host parties and give spiked bottles and pills to the women in attendance.

50 also threw sly shots at his other foe Rick Ross in his teaser trailer ... by using Rozay's controversial "U.O.E.N.O." lyrics about slipping females molly in their champagne when they weren't looking.

Diddy isn't letting all this smut go to his name without a fight ... earlier today, he emphasized "enough is enough" and denied all the allegations as a money grab as a response to yet another lawsuit.

50 has yet to set a release date for the doc, but he's been posting about Diddy a lot lately, so you gotta imagine it's top of mind.

Recently retired Philadelphia Eagles star Desean Jackson made more than $91 million over the course of his career, but he says his financial ambitions are much greater than that ... revealing he wants to be on the same level as Magic Johnson.

The 37-year-old former wideout did a sit-down with Adam22 on the "No Jumper" podcast this week after signing a one-day contract to end his career with the Birds ... and he revealed while he's grateful for the amount of cash he made throughout his career, he understands those paychecks are no longer coming.

"The hustler I am, I ain't satisfied with the money I made in the NFL," D-Jack said. "I would meet you today, and you wouldn't even think I made 100 plus million in NFL. Because guess what? That money right there, that's going to make my future be cool for my kids."

"But right now, I still need bread, so I'm out here getting all type of stuff, going private equity, real estate ... S***, f*** the NFL. That s*** was cool, but what's next? I'm trying to go touch some Magic Johnson-type s***."

Of course, Magic has made a name for himself off the court ... investing in, among other successful businesses, the Los Angeles Dodgers and Sparks and Washington Commanders. His net worth has now crossed the billion-dollar mark.

Shaun White grew up shredding the half pipe at a youth action sports camp in Oregon ... a time that had such a profound impact on the 3x Olympic gold medalist, he just teamed up with Philadelphia 76ers and NJ Devils owners Josh Harris and David Blitzer to buy the camp!

Talk about coming full circle.

We Are Camp, founded in the late '80s, is located in Ft. Hood, Oregon, a kick-ass skiing and snowboarding spot about 75 miles east of Portland. They offer a bunch of different activities in addition to snow sports, including mountain biking and skateboarding.

“As a kid, I was so thrilled to spend every summer going up to Windells and High Cascade Snowboard Camp,” White said, reminiscing on his many family vacations to the 28-acre campgrounds.

“Those were some of my fondest memories. I would snowboard the best park and halfpipe in the morning and then the afternoons would be filled with skateboarding, trampolines, and mountain biking, it was epic!"

Shaun, of course, went on to become the greatest snowboarder of all time... affording him the connections and opportunity to partner with Harris and Blitzer.

"I’m honored to officially partner with We Are Camp along with Josh and David. I’m excited to step in and help elevate a place that’s so special to me, so come June, you’ll know where to find me!”

Sources tell us the camp was valued at around $10 million!

A lot of money ... but Josh Harris and David Blitzer are incredibly successful. In addition to the Sixers and Devils, they own the Prudential Center arena in New Jersey.

LeRoy Butler dice que Florida State necesita hacer las maletas y salir del infierno de la ACC, diciendole a TMZ Sports que cree que la debilidad percibida de la conferencia es una gran razón por la que el comité del College Football Playoff le dio a los Seminoles la bota el domingo.

"Vamos a tener que irnos", dijo Butler, quien fuera estrella de la FSU desde 1987 hasta 1989. "Tenemos que salir de la ACC. Si queremos ganar un campeonato nacional, tenemos que irnos".

FSU  —que acaba de completar una temporada de 13-0 el sábado— fue considerado por muchos como uno de los cuatro mejores equipos del país, pero cuando llegó el momento de elegir a los cuatro equipos que jugarán por el campeonato nacional de este año, el comité de CFP le dio el visto bueno a un equipo de Alabama con una derrota sobre los Seminoles.

Cuando hablamos con Butler sobre el desaire unas 24 horas después de que ocurriera, estaba furioso, diciendo que cree que el comité le "robó" a su ex equipo.

Luego, nos dijo que la afiliación de la conferencia de FSU tendrá que cambiar con el fin de evitar este tipo de situaciones en el futuro.

"Seamos honestos, no creen que la ACC sea una buena conferencia", dijo Butler, antes de añadir: "Te apuesto a que he recibido 50 llamadas de gente diciendo 'Tío, tienes que salir de la ACC'".

"Esto no es baloncesto. El fútbol trae el dinero".

Aunque Butler no dijo dónde le gustaría que terminara su alma mater, parece bastante claro que es la SEC.

"La SEC está en el cerebro de todos... que un equipo de una derrota es mejor que un equipo de 13-0".

LeRoy Butler says Florida State needs to pack its bags and get the hell out of the ACC ... telling TMZ Sports he believes the perceived weakness of the conference is a big reason the College Football Playoff committee gave the Seminoles the boot on Sunday.

"We're going to have to leave," said Butler, who starred at FSU from 1987 through 1989. "We've got to get out of the ACC. If we want to win a national championship, we've got to go."

FSU -- which just completed a 13-0 season on Saturday -- was believed by many to be one of the four best teams in the country ... but when it came time to pick the four squads who will play for this year's national championship, the CFP committee gave the nod to a one-loss Alabama team over the Seminoles.

When we spoke with Butler about the snub some 24 hours after it went down ... he was furious -- saying he believes the committee "robbed" his former team.

Then, he told us FSU's conference affiliation will need to change in order to prevent these kinds of situations going forward.

"Let's be honest, they don't think the ACC is a good conference," Butler said ... before adding, "I bet you I've gotten 50 calls from people -- 'Man, ya'll have got to get out of the ACC.'"

"This is not basketball. Football brings in the money."

While Butler didn't say where he'd like his alma mater to end up -- it seems pretty clear it's the SEC.

"The SEC is in everybody's brain -- that a one-loss team is better than a 13-0 team."

Seminoles legend Charlie Ward is asking for full access to College Football Playoff committee meetings going forward ... after he believes Florida State got screwed over during Sunday's selection process.

The former Heisman Trophy winner told TMZ Sports he believes full transparency following the committee's controversial pick of 12-1 Alabama over 13-0 FSU would help assuage a lot of the salty opinions that were created by the org.'s decision.

Ward -- who ended up having a successful career in the NBA after college football -- says when he was on the Florida High School Athletic Association, open-door meetings helped squelch outrage ... and now he's asking for similar from the CFP.

"A lot of our meetings are online to where people can weigh in and see what the conversations are," Ward said.

"I would like to see us open up that process so that we can hear these conversations and weigh in on the process."

Ward is not the only one who wants something done ... Florida Senator Rick Scott wrote the committee a letter, demanding the CFP provide answers following its "unprecedented exclusion" of FSU from this year's national championship race.

Kim Zolciak and Kroy Biermann are falling deeper into the debt hole -- she just got hit with a new credit card lawsuit ... meanwhile, a different judge just ordered him to pay 5 figures.

The embattled couple had some new legal docs come their way Tuesday -- in Kim's case, she's now being sued by Chase Bank over a balance they claim is way past due ... they're suing her for $4,624.02

In the docs, obtained by TMZ, Chase attached a bunch of statements from her account to demonstrate she's been behind on payments dating back to Nov. 2022.

The balance, they allege, has only ballooned ... and now, they say they want their dough. Remember, Kroy also got sued by Chase Bank over another credit card account he had with them ... and in that instance, they alleged he owed quite a bit more -- about $13,000.

Speaking of KB, he got hit with a judgment in a completely separate case -- although, it pertains to the same sort of allegations. Discover is suing him over a balance it says he owed, which had grown to $11,275.45 ... and was past due.

Per new legal docs, Kroy never officially filed a response in that suit -- and now, a judge has signed off on a default judgment saying he's gotta fork over that full amount ... plus $111 of court costs.

As we've reported ... Kim and Kroy have been facing a lot of these types of lawsuits lately -- and it's all part of the mosaic of their financial woes ... which go well beyond the credit cards.

Kim Zolciak y Kroy Biermann se están hundiendo cada vez más en el agujero de las deudas. Ella acaba de recibir un nuevo embate, con una demanda por atrasos en su tarjeta de crédito, mientras que otro juez acaba de ordenarle a Roy que pague 5 cifras.

La asediada pareja se encontró con nuevos documentos legales el martes. En el caso de Kim, ahora está siendo demandada por Chase Bank por un sobre saldo que está muy atrasado y que asciende a los $4,624.02, según están demandando.

En los documentos obtenidos por TMZ, Chase adjunta un montón de declaraciones de su cuenta para demostrar que los retrasos en los pagos se remontan a noviembre de 2022.

Alegan que el saldo solo se ha disparado y que quieren su dinero de vuelta. Recuerden, Kroy también fue demandado por Chase Bank por otra tarjeta de crédito que tenía con ellos. En ese caso, alegan que debía un poco más de $13,000.

Hablando de Kroy, también fue aporreado con una sentencia en un caso completamente separado, aunque se refiere al mismo tipo de reclamos. Discover lo está demandando por un saldo adeudado que habría crecido a $11,275.45 y está atrasado.

Por nuevos documentos legales, Kroy nunca presentó oficialmente una respuesta a esa demanda y ahora un juez ha firmado una sentencia diciendo que él es tenedor de esa cantidad total, más unos $111 por los costos judiciales.

Como hemos informado, Kim y Kroy se han enfrentado a una gran cantidad de demandas de este tipo últimamente, y todo es parte del mosaico de sus problemas financieros, el que va mucho más allá de sus tarjetas de crédito.

Yo Gotti's entrepreneurial focus is destined to get even sharper ... the CMG rap boss is currently studying business at UCLA's Anderson School of Management, a source close to the rapper tells TMZ Hip Hop.

We're told Gotti is taking a weekly course in person called Corporate Valuation taught by Professor Lori Santikian.

It's safe to say Gotti will be getting an A+ education ... UCLA Anderson School of Management ranked in the top 20 of U.S. News & World Report's best business schools of the 2023-2024 school year.

When it's all said and done, Gotti will be able to speak fancy-schmancy suit talk, such as developing strategies for financial reports, IPOs, mergers, and acquisitions and have the tools for evaluating businesses.

The skills will come in handy -- Gotti arguably has the most stacked roster in rap ... MoneyBagg Yo, GloRilla, 42 Dugg, EST Gee and others have all proved to be headlining acts in their own right.

Gotti's newfound business savvy will also improve his other endeavors ... he's also co-owner of MLS club D.C. United, which he touted at the White House this past summer.
