Synopsis

Charlie Bumpers and his best friends Tommy and Hector can't wait to try out the stupific offensive plays they've perfected. The Pirates are sure to win the championship this year! But their high hopes are crushed when they see their shrimpy and inexperienced teammates. They also find out that their new coach expects everyone to learn all the positions and never gives the dynamic trio a chance to perform together. To make matters worse, Charlie's big brother has joined a video club and he is recording every one of the Pirates' disastrous plays.
