If this holds true and we are using blue and red soccer balls in 2 weeks, I would have to rate this as the best bit of sleuthing so far for the 2010 season.
There were few Orbit Balls after kickoff because Walmart, the only distributor of Orbit Balls, decided to stop stocking them shortly before Kickoff. I highly doubt Walmart gave up on selling soccer balls.

EDIT: It was either Walmart or the manufacturer that stopped sales, not sure which.
