This is sad but amusing by the way I like you name, but can't make out the picture to well. Was it a spoof comedy of the Tim Burton film or perhaps a porn?

I can hardly agree more. I've wriiten some things on the problems with sports before. I even had my own topic very similar to this one.

People have to wake up and relize that they are paying the multi-million dollar salary of Alex Rodriguez. They continue to make him richer while all he does is play a game for your entertainment. It costs the average family of 4 around $370 to see a baseball game at Shea Stadium, where the Mets play. That only includes 4 lodge level tickets, 4 sodas, 2 beers, 4 hotdogs, and I believe 4 pretzels and a parking space in the lot. Now that is just CRAZY.

Did you know the salary-caps in the NFL are being called communist? It happened to the AFL in Australian a long time ago, but I do not remember such comparisons. Albeit, the money hungery bastards like this new system (not all of course).
