Crimson Red Sports

Anybody tried it?  THoughts?

I bought one yesterday and took two small sips of it on my way home around 3:15.  I couldn't tell it effected me at all until bedtime about 6-7 hours later and I was bug-eyed for a bit. 

Then, I drank the rest of it this morning when I left home for my 35 minute commute to work.  IT WORKS!  It had me a good bit fidgety for a while.  It also tastes horrible...

I usually take one before a late evening bike ride but can't stand them any other time.

How can you drink something that tastes bad? I've never tried one but would if they tasted good and I needed the boost
I am not being snarky - I'm just curious because if something tastes horrible to me, I usually end up gagging.

I haven't tried that one. But the ones I have tried were NASTY!!

I have never tried one. I see people at the gym use them all the time before a workout. They tell me it works.

They are the bomb.

I've never tried them.
They scare me a little.
My BIL would drink 3 of those at a time when he was on meth.

Clarification:  If he were somewhere where he couldn't get meth he substituted Stackers. 

I drink 60+ ounces of DMD daily though...
hmmmm....   My own addiction. 

I never tried that stuff. I am not sure about being figgidty. lol, RTR!

I've had a couple, but they didn't ssssssssssseeeeeeeeemmmmmm ttoooottoooo faaazzeeee meeeeeeee.......... :jump: :crazy:

When I was on the road a lot, I would drink "Monster" energy drinks. They worked very well. I only tried "5 hour" once, but it had no effect on me.

What is the best thing to drink to keep you from getting drowsy when you are traveling and have a long drive ahead?  Preferably something that doesn't taste too horrible.

Doctored coffee  :D

I haven't tried anything like that P...for the reason that I work 2nd shift. Heck...I wouldn't get any rest if I did. :o

This

Doctored with what?

The way I feel sometimes I need a 10 hr. drink. LOL. RTR!

Tried them all NALT. Just not my cup o tea,taste wise

is these things bitter or sour or what is it? RTR!

Kinda bitter to me Rick. There also was an article a while back that mentioned a few that were not good for you. Having said that,seems a lot of things we eat and drink are in the news about not being healthy for us.

Hey S-AL-Tider, I know. It seems almost like nothing in the world is working right for some reason. I guess we are going to have to grow our own food. LOL. RTR!

I drink one about a hour before I go on the field to referee HS football games. They help my energy level quite a bit and I don't crash when it wears off. They also do not make me jittery.

Does it work for those I-ate-too-much-steak-and-wanna-crash nights?

Is it hard to Referee a HS Game? RTR!

Has anyone tried "Spark"?  It's by Advocare I think. My sister and Brother in Law love them.  All natural vitamins, etc. Supposedly really helps your energy level.
They left me a package this weekend. You pour it into a bottle of water and shake. Supposed to be good.. i haven't tried it yet though.

I had a B12 shot I wonder if that is equal to the 5 HR? RTR!

Nah - just finished my 14th year on the field last year. I love it - keeps me involved with the game and today's players.

My compliments Carl. I have a question may sound harsh, but do you as a Ref. ever have one way or the other you would like to lean but you know you can't? RTR!

ricky, it is human nature to want to throw a flag against a team with a jerk for a coach or one or two jerk players. However, the officials who take their job seriously do not let personal feelings or bias get in the way. It takes a commitment to want to get better and to be a professional. There have been times I wanted to say something derogatory toward a coach or player, but that's not my job. Fans don't pay their money to see me - they pay to see the players and a good game. If a game is over and I am not noticed, I think I did my job.

Wow, so cool Carl. I am so greatful to have a friendship with someone who can stand by commitment. RTR!
