Hello Tyler and David, If my memory serves me well, in a few episodes you have joked / discussed jokingly about writing a screenplay / film project about the Mafia buying / owning a baseball team. Either you have to write it faster or check back the films you might have seen as young kids, because your premise might go along the same lines as... www.imdb.com/title/tt0043967/According to the Summary page: Screwball-noir in which curmudgeonly-but-lovable tycoon (T.J. Banner) dies and leaves his fortune, including a Brooklyn baseball franchise, to his lovable-but-curmudgeonly cat (Rhubarb), setting into motion plot involving thwarted romance, court battles, baseball heroics and gangsters. Yes, you have never mentioned that you wanted a cat / animal in the film... but, well, maybe both of you saw this film in a repeat (yes, you were not born in 1951)... and selective memory did the rest. Keep on the good work!

Rest assured, we did not know this film existed. We arrived at our sure-fire blockbuster completely on our own. We should have guessed that such an awesome idea would have been done already. Oh, well. Thankfully, I've been working on another idea in which a young man is haunted by the ghost of a pirate...

I once was doing a check on Alfred Hitchcock's body of work and found of a never finished film called Number 13 that was never complete and seems shrouded in mystery. Instantly, I wanted to make a Hitchcockian story of a Hitchcock trying to make the movie but getting caught in a thriller of his own. Then I found out someone is making that movie already. At least I can't complain about the premise!
