Oh boy....

" First, the act of wearing a black uniform may make players more aggressive." I flag this statement... The players cant see them selves, its the equivalent of saying black socks and underwear make a salesman more aggressive. Or sitting in a black car makes a driver more aggressive.

NFL Football Stats - NFL Team Penalties per Game on TeamRankings.com

There are always 2-3 most AND least penalized teams that wear black.... That is an even spread when there are 6 black jersey-ed teams.

That's 2 in the top, 2 in the middle, 2 in the bottom.

I thought the study was, any team wearing Black, named the Saints, were penalized more. Maybe that's just what we are expecting this year.
