    I think in the 90's block-number era it was more of a straight yellow. I think when we got the jersey's with the italic numbers is when it became more "aztec-gold"

    At first I was annoyed but then I realized he's got a point. That's yellow not gold. Gold is what the Saints have for example.

    That's metallic gold. "Gold" is also a shade of yellow. Several shades, actually.

    Either way, TRADITION says "Black and Gold." :D

    It is listed officially with the NFL as Black and Gold. The color actually on the uniform is clearly more yellow.

    I like Black and gold because it's tradition.

    according to the definition of Gold, here is how its described - a precious yellow metallic element, highly malleable and ductile, and not subject to oxidation or corrosion

    Its actually the color of a yolk, which is Golden Yellow. Or shortened to Gold. It's not metallic Gold.

    USC, UCLA, CAL, ASU, all use the same color and call it Gold. WVU calls it Old Gold. So, it's gold most places. Unless you're Michigan and you try to be cute by calling it Maize. lol

    I know a couple of ladies who hang with his mom. IDK how they met but Wiz bought her a house in our district, right outside of Southpointe to be exact. I never met her but have seen pictures. She’s a nice looking woman. :hehehe:

    It’s yellow but it identifies as gold, so it’s gold. No one has the right say otherwise and to say that it’s yellow is mean and incredibly insensitive.

    I wonder why we stole our uniform colors and design from the Iowa Hawkeyes?

    Would you rather be gold or yellow?

    Gold- something considered to be precious, beautiful, most superior

    Yellow- cowardly, turn with age (become yellow)
