We've decided to make a facebook page about the site itself
But we're still mooting logos and credos/ mottos/catchlines/catchphrases/tag-lines

SO if you guys have any suggestions, please email them to us as soon as you can.

We'll be putting up a poll for the logo as well as the tagline, so that everyone can be a part of the process
That'll be done sometime this week.

The movie _X_, released in 2005, is a remake of a 1974 movie of the same name. The movie features the prominent line, spoken to the protagonist, "Most of these boys have nothin', never had anything to start with. But you, you had it all. You could have robbed banks, sold dope or stole your grandma's pension checks and none of us would have minded. But _____________, man, that's un-American!"

After gauging the state of the prisoners, the protagonist agrees to the warden's request to form a football team of prisoners against the guards, as a warm up game for the guards.

The underdogs, as in every good Hollywood or Bollywood movie, wins ( no surprises there).

But in the remake, the protagionist __Y__ becomes the coach of the team.
