What could Powerin be compared to in real life? Like I know we have Gatorade and such, but what could be compared to in anyone's opinion?

There's so many energy and sports drink aviliable, I just thought this was an interesting thought I had that'd I'd tell everyone about.

Maybe that should be something the makers of the game should do, contact Coke, Pepsi or another company to make real life powerin as a promo for MLBPP 09' or 10'.

Just an interesting thought I've had the past few months, lol.

No, if they do that, it's going to be the other way around. the Gatorade company could pay money so that Powerin is replaced by Gatorade...

This CAN work, just work with me abit on this and people can go miles. lol. no hard feelings but if there's a will, THERE is a WAY. :mrgreen:

i also hate drinking hot gatorade.
i mean sitting outside in the sun for 5-6 hours gatorade.
It tastes horrible, and it's actually less refreshing than not drinking at all sometimes.
