[26 Year Gap]

I have gone to G2 or Powerade Zero. Some flavors aren't good even when they have sugar, but I stay away from red in case of spillage. Enough abuse without "Hey, ref! You got blood on your shirt!" In summer & spring with 4-6 AAU games here in FL, I will usually go through a quart of the stuff. But I will take water if offered and it is cold. But the straight Gatorade/Powerade is so full of sugar that I just stay away. Getting older does things to insulin resistance etc. Made that switch a few months ago. Dropped over 15 lbs in a few weeks, too, which was a side benefit.
