You now remember the last season that the Super Mario Bros. Super Show ran in syndication, when they replaced the Captain Lou segments with that 90s "Environment is XTREEEEME Cool!" Club Mario.

Actually, you most likely don't want to. DiC definitely doesn't want to and pretty much buried those segments forever.

Rumor has it that Bowser heard about the legendary warrior known as "Bo Jackson", and how no one could stop him. With this in mind, Bowser wanted to create his own Bo Jackson, and trained an elite group of Koopas for his quest of Bo Jackson. None of them came close but they're by and far the most skilled, formidable, and durable of his soldiers.

It looks like they play American football, but really they just play a game that also happens to involve tackling and wearing helmets/shoulder pads. Other, more specialized positions include the cloning specialist, the animal whistler (widely considered the most technically difficult position), and the guy who stands still and hurls rocks. That last one really only sees play during overtime, though.
