pictures cartoon football playersLive football / sport type legal question?

You may be familiar with the likes of yahoo sports' live updates service where minute by minute text updates of big football games is given.

The same service uses a graphical representation/diagram of the pitch with the player names in their strategic positions (fixed).

I was wondering , would it be legal if yahoo or other providers of these services were to use a bit more detail in their representation of the gampictures cartoon football playerse.

for example move the numbered shirts around the picture to represent the real-time situation at the game, put in a picture of a ball to represent the balls position, and update the service second by second so the internet viewer would be seeing almost a cartoon version of the real match - a little on screen subuteo version?

they wouldnt be breaking any broadcast laws right?

stick a radio on in the backgropictures cartoon football playersund and its good as a live view of the subscription game........... well almost.

and i have satellite and pay per view before the cheapo jokes start.
I see where you're coming from. I don't think it would work though. The Premier League would somehow put a stop to it. Also it'd be boring. Only 3 ways to watch footy really. Live, tv and radio. Obviously radio is not watching but you get my drift.
