Knew a lot of you out there play sports and thus a few things on here might help. However, I did feel the need to post this because of reason #4: Wearing Red.

The game has passed me by. Guess I should start waving a white flag and go home.
Singing works, but not for the reason they gave. It has a tendency to make opponents go WTF and can cause a distraction.
Well I know one person who wears red who has won a lot .... Tiger Woods (I mean he hasn't won recently, but you know, in general). Wears it every single Sunday.
I still however don't ever wear it myself. Never will
