Red ink isn't used to be aggressive - it's used because kids use black and blue ink, and red stands out better.  I know, I know, "Everyone should play at least 15 minutes every game and get a trophy at the end of the season so their little self-esteem's don't get crushed under the weight of not being good enough to warrant 15 minutes of playing time, or a trophy at the end of the season".

Cry me a river.
