Love all these people talking about the bad health problems associated with energy drinks, but nobody has said a word about dip.... i believe that's called "picking your poison." Actually I'd call it ironic. |

Not to be a jagoff but I think that's Alanis Morissette "irony." Aren't half you guys English teachers? J/k ; )

Not sure I get that.
Actually, that song's examples of irony aren't really ironic.

I tell you one thing, this stop is the eatingest group of coaches I have ever seen. All my other stops, I usually drop 5-10 lbs because I am usually too tired to eat supper when I get home.
Now we eat pre-game and post game. Get Mikey Ds on the JV road games, or the booster club will grill burgers for a couple of home games. Sunday meetings we have a supper brought in. Every so often, somebody will do some kind of supper during the week. Publix donates leftover bread and pastries that they would have to throw away every Tuesday.

5 Hour Energy and a Diet Mt. Dew. The boosters feed us after the game so I get something then if I can stomach it. The way we have been playing it is better to watch the games on an empty stomach!

It could be ironic if there was rain on your wedding day -- IF you were a meteorologist who should have known better.

A fly in your Chardonnay would be ironic if you ordered it instead of tequila because worms gross you out.

I'm a Subway guy personally. I have banned any "energy" drinks for the players so the coaching staff can drink nothing more potent than coffee. The local Dunkin Donuts loves us.

I am surprised how many people drink energy drinks as well. I also have ADD and use to drink energy drinks in college to help me focus on test because I will never take any medication for it. Then I realized how bad they are for you. If we expect our players to not drink these then why would we? I believe in Coach Wooden's philosophy when it comes to getting pumped up before games. Control your emotions and do not get too up or down. I would think this would really apply to coaches who have to stay collected an entire game to make the right calls. I guess some may think they need the energy but I feel if you need extra energy to get you through Friday night then something is wrong. Even if you need energy, there are much healthier ways. I have ADD and I am curious as to why you won't take meds for it? I take a small amount of adderall and it works wonders for me. then again I am inattentive ADD so meds usually work wonders. I can tell when I do not use my meds. |

LOL. I've seen that, it was actually what I was thinking of when I posted. Well, that and I know some of the lyrics. Didn't want to admit that.  |

On JV games (Monday) I normally eat a powerbar and gatorade. We start step-thru at 4, and kickoff at 6, so eating isn't a huge deal for me.
On Fridays, we hit Taco Bell or Arbys as assistant coaches. I like to go light because I ll eat after the game.

Usually whatever is cooked, b4 a JV game is grilled hamburger. Varsity game is whatever the parents cooked, usually pasta and a salad. Though last week, I ate Moe's . Pre-game is a box of Hot Tamales, in the box is some sort of candy and a Dr. Pepper. |

How do you keep the Dr. Pepper from spilling out of the box?

Upstairs in the booth is what I meant when I said box ;D, I have candy and Dr. Pepper sitting in front of me.

Okay, the pre-game meal is to each his own, but what about the post-game meal. I don't drink as much beer as I once did (gout problems) but I can sure throw down a basket of fries and some wings.
After a big loss, however, I feel like Doc Holiday at a saloon at 2 o'clock in the morning. "Nonsense, I have not yet begun to defile myself".

I'm just jealous of all of you who are still allowed gum and seeds during games. My school put in a new field-turf field and they are super strict on what is allowed. No gum. No food. No drinks other than water. No tobacco. I'm normally a gum chomper during games and I've had to learn to quit.

10 chicken nuggets Mcd's value meal before the game only because I can't eat the team meal, they get fed at a buffet, but I have a ton of stuff to do before the game so I grab the McD's. After the game as a staff we go to the bar/restaurant at a local golf course. they keep the kitchen open late for us so we can get something after the game to go with beers. I wish they wouldn't, their food is terrible. We go their because nearly everyone of our coaches lives within 5 minutes of the place, but really their cheeseburgers and steak sandwhiches are absolutely dreadful.
