My three day boycott of Gatorade started Sunday and will last through Tuesday night as Penn State gears up to play Florida tomorrow in the third round of the NIT Tournament. I highly suggest that you, and everyone you know join in.
Although it is tasty, and quite refreshing on a hot summer day, I started secretly hating Gatorade when they started airing their commercial which features the "history of Gatorade". Something about Keith Jackson speaking about a "new carbohydrate electrolyte beverage" while standing in the "swamp" just rubs me the wrong way (although it is a pretty decent spot).
"Naturally, we called our stuff Gator-aide."
Shut it, Dr. Robert Cade. The Lions are in town, and they're mighty thirsty.
Vitamin Water anyone?

Have you noticed that Vitamin Water has supplanted Gatorade as the official beverage of the NCAA Tournament? I don't know what relevance that has to the post, but I like it.
hmm now that you mention it..i did notice that, but never made the comparison. Do you think a basketball coach has ever gotten the water cooler bath after winning the tourney? So what about a sticky floor. They're not going to use that court for months. I can see Will Leiner tossing the gatorade cooler on top of big Ed's head in Madison Square Garden. Then Leiner getting arrested for damaging property.
