In my humble opinion, when choosing a paint color for a car I think people should follow this simple guideline.  Generally speaking, metallic colors look good on cars with sharp angular edges and non-metallic colors look good on cars with rounded edges.  For instance, if you get a Chrysler 300 you want a metallic color.  If you get a VW Bug, you should get a non-metallic color.  The caveat being that some cars look good in any color (Aston Martin DB 9) and some cars look bad in any color (Toyota Prius, doh!) 

I’m going on record that in a few seasons we’ll look back on this post and say “wow, Scott’s scouting ability is the s—.”  Shawn Bailey is an undrafted rookie free-agent.  The Kansas City Chiefs picked him up.  Though undrafted players have a huge hill to climb to make any team, I believe Bailey’s skill and smoothness as a wide receiver will eventually get him on the field and producing good numbers for the Chiefs.  The way teams structure their rosters I doubt he’ll have much of an opportunity to make anything other than the practice squad in his first season.  So we’ll just have to wait a few seasons to determine if I am right or wrong.
