The description can not have line breaks. The cell must contain one long line of text. The description can include HTML coded line breaks to control how the description will appear on the listing page. If you are copying from elsewhere, try to copy the HTML version of the text. Then make sure the HTML is all on one line.
Generally, you can paste your description into eBay's editor, flip to the HTML view and copy the HTML from there. If your HTML code appears on more than one line, you can compress it here using the "condense" button:

If a single buyer owns more than 50% of the card (by spots purchased or multiple players from one team outweighing another), the card goes to them. For players not identified by (Team U.S.A., for instance), first priority will be given to H.O.F. induction team. Second priority given to the team they played majority of their career with. *If a player-specific card or item is pulled with an active player in a COLLEGE uniform or ALL-STAR uniform or INTERNATIONAL uniform and/or with only a college team name or an all-star team name or an international team name on the front or back of the card or elsewhere on an item, it will be awarded to the MLB, NBA or NFL pro team which the player is signed with at the scheduled start time of the live break. *If a card or item is pulled with a RETIRED player in a college uniform or an all-star uniform or an international uniform and/or with only a college team name or an all-star team name or an international team name on the front or back of the card or elsewhere on an item, it will be awarded to the team that they played for the longest except in the case where a pro team name is also listed somewhere on the card or anywhere on or with an item (which includes information written on and/or included with item packaging that designates a pro team).

If the single line of text failed, then there is some other issue. What does the error message say? Is there another cell that has linebreaks?
In order to get the HTML from your text, paste it into eBay's description editor and then click the HTML view. Copy the HTML view and "condense" that HTML code.

That screenshot shows the same description error as before. It seems that the copy/paste did not put the condensed description in the spreadsheet, or that the wrong spreadsheet file was uploaded.
