Springfield Wildcats
Springfield Wildcats is a pee-wee football team.
History
After a Health convention held in Springfield, the children of Springfield are deemed to be overweight. To help them stay in shape, the parents enrole their children into football, and the "Springfield Wildcats" was created. Ned Flanders end up being the coach and turns out to be great at it, allowing everyone to play including girls, however despite the teams undefeated streak under his coaching he eventually and angrily quits after being fed up with Homer's constant heckling from the sidelines. Homer turns out to be a lousy coach, and far more stereotypical in it. He cuts more than half the team unnecessarily and acts tough toward Bart, but when he is reminded of when he was a child and how his father was hard on him, he decides to be nicer to Bart. The next day, he decides to cut many more players off the team including all the girls, and changes the quarterback from Nelson to Bart, causing an uproar in the team because Nelson had been carrying the team on his own after Homer took over as coach. Bart is unable to play the position well, and causes the team to lose a few games. The team then falls out with Bart and take a dislike to him. Bart decides to pretend he is extremely injured so he can stop being the quarterback, but Homer claims that without Bart, the team must forfeit. Bart becomes angry, says he never wanted to be the quarterback anyway, and quits the team. Nelson is made the quarterback again and the team wins, but Homer has nobody to celebrate with and becomes lonely. Afterwards, Homer finds Bart and reconciles with him to join the team again. The next day during the final championship game, the score becomes tied when Chief Wiggum comes to arrest Nelson. Bart decides to pretend he is Nelson as he is assuming it is only for a petty crime, despite it actually being for burglary and arson. However, the team finally wins the championship, and the team tries to carry Homer, unsuccessfully, off the field.
