Update:
"According to the offer sheet obtained by ESPN and KGO-TV, the city has dropped previous requirements that called for MLB to keep the A's name and colors in Oakland, as well as a demand that MLB guarantee the city a future expansion team."
ESPN needs to color balance their cameras better. Depending on the shot, the Brahmas use either athletic gold or yellow.
Update: Also the remote camera is rendering the color a bit greenish.
Unfortunately, words used for colors can vary, especially since Nike et. al. make things up for marketing purposes. The only things you can trust are Pantone and other numbers. And the further back you go, the more you have to just estimate.
If college athletes are allowed to unionize (as they may soon), here's how I think we rank them:
1. NFL
2. College football
3. NBA
4. College basketball
5. MLB
6. NASCAR
7. NHL
8. MLS.
