Although the lenses are the way to go here, I also have to comment on the choice like a D800e... Like why? And, if that's the choice, why not a plain D800. There would be virtually no discernible difference for hand held sports shots. And, the D800 is often available refurbished for far less than a D800e.
I also thought this was about a budget.
The D800 series cameras can be difficult to work with. Best Suited for landscape, studio work, and possibly general work by experienced/skilled photographers like TM, or others. Most use a tripod for best, absolute result. You have more crop ability, but also a higher chance of image failure as any camera shake will be reflected in the final capture (which is true with a lot of the higher pixel density bodies). More so, than the D3s or a D700 and other cameras with the "fatter" pixels. This was pointed out in the original release information and videos by both Nikon and Jim Brandenburg cautioned about this, among others out there. Be prepared to double, or triple the old rule with shutter speed/focal length if hand holding. Which means higher ISO, etc. etc.
There are reasons Nikon makes a variety of camera bodies, some are better suited for certain photography genres than others.
All the above just my opinion of course, supported by information freely available from Nikon and other sources..
