    REST API for TheSportsDB, an open, crowd-sourced database of sports artwork
    and metadata. The V1 API returns JSON for searches, lookups, leagues, players,
    teams, events, schedules, and video highlights, with the API key supplied as
    a path segment. The free test key is "3" (also documented as "123"). Premium
    V2 endpoints (livescores) authenticate with an API key in the X-API-KEY header.
