8!!Tropes:
9* CannotSpitItOut: Roy is this in regards to Rebecca, until the lucky peppers episode when he manages to score a dinner date with her to meet with merchandising personnel. The end of the episode implies a RelationshipUpgrade for the two.
10* CatsAreMean: Peter, a Siamese cat rival of the Sunny Farm team, looks down on them and will take any opportunity he can get to knock them out of the football personnel's favor.
11* CloudCuckooLander: [=DeSanctis=], a chicken and the team's second striker, has short term memory problems-which sometimes make him forget his own teammates, or that he's even on a team.
12* EvilIsPetty: Despite being the primary antagonist of the series, Peter performs some rather tame things to the protagonists. One episode had him attempt to publicly humiliate Roy by having people watch him ''fart''.
13* HumanoidFemaleAnimal: Rebecca is noticeably more human-like (and taller) than her teammates. She even sports a FurryFemaleMane, when most other female characters lack one.
14* HypocriticalHumor: Many of the team members side with Rebecca in her skepticism about Garcia's family's "lucky peppers". However, they all eat them when their curiosity gives in, which leads to unfortunate side effects for all of them.
15* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Byrne. In the episode where he discovers that he's a sheep literally RaisedByWolves, he was seen reading to cute little orphan rabbits.
16* ManiacMonkeys: One rival team had several spider monkeys who'd physically impede the Sunny Farm team's progress, even in blatant displays like covering Roy's eyes and trying to drag George down. Yet they are apparently not committing fouls because they're deemed "too small and weak to really physically assault anyone".
17* MrFanservice: Sean, a Border Collie and friend/competitor of Roy's, has this reputation, in-verse. (It helps that he has one of the better-looking character models.)
18* PigMan: George
19* [[RagtagBunchOfMisfits Ragtag Football Team of Misfits]]: At first, Roy and his team aren't the best players due to a multitude of physical disadvantages and personality clashes. But when the going gets tough, they manage.
20* RaisedByWolves: In Byrne's case, it's quite literal as his adoptive parents ''are'' wolves. It explains a lot of his tough and surly demeanor.
21* ShoutOut: The white rabbit member of the team is named [[Literature/AliceInWonderland Alice]].
22* TeamMom: Emily, the team's manager and owner, sometimes assumes this role, most notably when she tries to get the team to cooperate and help [=DeSanctis=].
23* TeethClenchedTeamwork: The team starts out with personality clashes that make things difficult. This particularly pertains to Roy and Byrne as Emily tries to get them to cooperate.
24* ToiletHumor: The "lucky peppers" grown by Garcia's family have unpleasant side effects for those who ingest them, but are not accustomed to them. One of said side effects is constant farting, which Roy finds out the hard way when he eats a pepper before a dinner with Rebecca and the official merchandising designer.
25* ViolentGlaswegian: Byrne the sheep definitely has shades of this, given his surly nature and Scottish accent.
26* WorldOfFunnyAnimals
