The Colts Thread

I don't mind Gold as the colour of the uniform, so long as it's not anything overboard... I mean, can you picture a golden uniform? :p Would need to mix it with another colour, methinks. Anything but yellow is fine by me, though. I still don't see the big need to call us anything but 'Colts' though, since that's the name of our club. Maybe some people struggle with strange new words that they had to learn outside of their first couple of years alive, though. :p

But seriously, no point in losing sleep over it. Marc's been calling us 'Yellows' for some time now and I pretty much just ignore it. Not the end of the world by any means, so long as we all know what our real team name is, it's all good.

Pure slander. The truth is I took Mrs Thomas out for a nice dinner and then didn't call her the following morning. That is all.

We wear yellow, we were never the "CW Yellows" in anything other than a nickname - we were always the CW Colts officially. I've never heard the Aussies called the "Yellows", myself, despite them wearing the colour.

It's rumoured Burkey got taped to a tree in the nude after leaving the bar, but we're waiting for photo confirmation...
Eugh. You can keep that photo to yourself...

:sick: :sick:

I can't help but feel a little embarrassed at this point in time. Never drinking (shandies) again.

There's many other reasons why they aren't called the Yellows. For one, do we call India the "Blues"? Pakistan the "Greens"? There's no precedent. But the Colts, however...

It would make sense, as all the other teams are colours

Because everyone says so? Think differently.


If all the other teams jumped off a cliff, would you? ;)

Marc, don't answer that.

Oh well, Find something for the other 3, We got Colts, be it 9 inches or Galloping with Pride. Greens got holds on Llamas. I would suggest Red Faces, Blue Heelers and Black Asses

Why change something if it aren't broken. Green like their Llama mascot, but that no reason why the others need to have one.

Of course, there are the Auckland Blues and the Queensland Reds playing alongside the Wellington Hurricanes and New South Wales Warratahs. There isn't a need for the other teams to change names.
