So, this is based off the video posted above, which is long and nerdy for those who don't want to click it.

Anyways, evidence suggests that teams in games like Halo and other First Person Shooters that wear red vs. teams that wear blue statistically win more games.

Now the opposite is true for games which require long-term planning like Real Time Strategy games and League of Legends (also if you don't know what they are, it's not really important).

The video however goes into data from sports as well. In the Olympics, athletes wearing red performed better across the board.

Refs were shown two identical videos of fighters from a Tae Kwon Do match, except that the colors were digitally switched from red to blue for each video. The "red" fighter, which was actually both fighters at one point, won the match by their decision 57-43 in BOTH videos. The same video. That's insane.

Anyways, the rest of the video is interesting, and goes on to theorize about red teams having an advantage over blue because of evolution and for red instilling fear and submission in the opponents wearing blue.

Also yeah Washington is like a purple color, but it's close enough.

tl;dr: Alabama is red and dominant, Huskies are blue and weak.

Alabama has more black people on its team. Therefore, Alabama beats Washington.

Plausible... years ago Sheriffs repainted jails from hospital green to pink in order to embarrass/shame inmates...

violence escalated 1000%... Psychs were called in to figure it out... it was red pigments..

It worked in the election for POTUS.

And if Bama was going to get preferential treatment by the refs because of Jersey color then why has the REC been spending all that money to pay them off?

Better safe than sorry I guess.

In the movie Gladiator they wanted to be on the red team because the gods favored red.

Must be true.

You favor white over black, that's why your thread was whacked.

Aren't you wasting your time on a Saturday night to respond to it?

Aren't you a little bitch for welching on your bet?

Didn't you spend three weeks in timeout for being a shithead?

D Watson is white. That's who I thought should have won. He happens to be black. He also happened to be well dressed and is typically prepared for any public appearances that I've seen him make. He's black the last time I checked....or really, really tan.

I cant help it Lamar Jackson looked like a clown. I didn't call him out because he was black. The other black kids weren't dressed like that. I called him out because he looked like a clown and was woefully unprepared. But he was flooded with emotion, so it's somewhat understandable.

There's no excuse for his "suit".

Why are there different standards for different kids based on color?

Who's the racist again?

Eta. I do hate I missed seeing my thread. Oh well, just the Admins MTDGA.

What about in World of tanks where you always wear
green and OpFor always wears red?

The winner always wears green and the loser always wears red from the winners perspective, but the opposite is true from the losers perspective.

You're clearly unaware of the Revised Color Theory, which states:

The better team usually wins, regardless of what the uniforms look like.

Purple and gold has not fared very well against Bama over the past few years.

I was about to say "George Washington would not approve of this message".

But, I can gurantee you the team favored by 16 in Vegas usually wins.
