Do the old-timers still do it that way? (Are these the same old-timers that still use the shirts with byron collars, and wear belts? Maybe something to consider...)

I have always been told to do this because it is harder to say "fuchsia" in with a whistle in your mouth instead of saying "Blue."
And honestly if I called a team by what I think the color is, they honestly would not know what the heck I am talking about anyway. White, Black, Blue, Green are easy to identify by all involved. This is not about being enlightened; this is about making things simple for a simple game.
