The issue is if you are using copyrighted pictures such as those issued by the NFL / ESPN etc and create derivativ work but sure you looked at that already. Should be fine otherwise
If you use your own pictures as basis for the drawings then make sure to keep those in a file associated with a drawing. Had this issue happen to someone I know that made a drawing and someone else sent a picture saying she copied that picture. The fact is that many people took the same picture (there were a group of people where this happened) and the I know just replied back with their digital image proving that it was from their camera etc saying - nope I used this picture as basis
NFL broadcasts etc usually have the no duplication allowed so seeing it on TV is probably not enough. Someone's uploaded video on youtube shot with their cell-phone camera should be enough since they put it up publically and shared it etc so that would be a way to reproduce beastquake pictures etc (not sure on youtube's copyright statement)
