They've been orange and black since 1967. Never any red whatsoever.

At first I thought you were kidding. It's true, the colors have always been orange and black, in fact, they are sometimes refered to as the orange and black. They did switch to primarily black jerseys a few years ago, probably for marketing purposes.

I do know that colors in real life can differ from what you see on TV. I remember seeing the NASCAR Texaco car in person many years ago and it was orange and black, but looked red and black on TV.

yeah, i think i was watching them for the first time on a tv good enough for me to tell it is orange and not red. The TEXACO car is a perfect example.
