I just read the actual number is like 535 possible jersey combos.

Like what the (frank) is that poop. Why.

And, conversely but still similarly, others that ask have never been colorblind.

What can you not see? Or what do you mistake?

Purple/blue has always been tough. Red/brown/green isn't always the easiest.

If the colors are in their purest forms, I can tell the difference. When colors start mixing, I have no idea. I'm much better with more light too. If I'm in a dim room, I can't tell you much.

I can use reasoning to determine most colors I don't know.

The worst was playing sports as a blue team and playing a purple team. I delivered some great setups to the wrong team!

These aren't real. Stop.

It looks like a men's league roller hockey shirt/jersey.

Yes they have a crazy number of combos they can use.

They could go 38 years without wearing the same uniform.

Did you ever get someone who didn't know...like toward the beginning of the season....JESUS PHILLYSPORTSGUY WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! TRYING TO THROW THE GAME?!?!

I've heard of the Red/Green/Brown one. First time I've heard of purple and blue though.

My team has a bright as (frank) tie dye tee shirt with a 80s guy with goofy hair, a shiny suit, and one of those piano guitar things rocking out on the front.

We're "The Motherfunkers"

I get the best faces when I wear that shirt around

This was the OHL's Kingston tribute to Don Cherry (he has some history with the team)

That one is much more common. Its not as simple as just struggling with certain colors though. I struggle with all colors, but some more than others. My fiancé is constantly laughing at me when I say "I like this shade of blue" and the color is actually purple or something else altogether. She's an interior designer who specializes in color, so it works well. My house isn't full of weird poop and I don't go to work dressed in strange colors.

As far as sports, I never played hockey in a blue or purple jersey, but I did wear blue during a basketball season. We played a purple team and it was hell. It was my best friends team and he knew so he kept telling everyone to call for an outlet pass when I got the rebound. Such a Richard.

The man is a magician.

I was calling that in my head honestly, at the 15 minute mark. Not exactly going out on a limb.

Boston should have had that all-world defensive stalwart Bergeron on the ice to stop it.
