These are both modern day but, in "House Guest" one of Sinbad's get rich quick schemes is to buy several cases of topps cards.
"Look, there could be a Ken Griffey Jr. in here. It may only be worth a few dollars now, but think about what it would be worth if something where to happen to him."
Also if you are not easily offended "East Bound and Down" was one of the best shows on HBO recently. If you are easily offended you should stay away from it. It's basically a very comedic take on John Rocker, but there is nothing funny about the price Kenny Powers rookies are going for.
