Anacott Steel mentioned in another movie?


I was watching The Longest Yard (The old GOOD version) and remembered the guards team lost the semi-pro title to 'Anacott/Endicott' Steel. Wondering if that's where they got this name from in WS.

Keith Moon was the greatest 'Keith Moon Style' drummer ever!!

It was Anacott Steel in Robert Aldrich's "The Longest Yard." Seeing how Stone is an avid football fan and also a fan of Aldrich's original, it very well could have been the source for Stone's company in "Wall Street." Fictional though it may have been, I wonder if they would still have a kick-ass semi-pro team.
