    I always get a McFlurry on my way to the game. No reason.

    I don't like to eat before games. I will usually have a small meal about two or three hours before game time.

    With basketball I'd usually eat a bowl of cereal (Vector mostly) before the game. When I play soccer, I never eat anything 2-3 hours before, because I'm constantly running and the hungry feeling I get keeps me alert.

    Yeah, I get my stuff when my mom walks in. I dont just show up like I am Iverson or something. I just like to eat close to my game it calms me down.

    o, ok. that makes sense. i was thinking like you were sitting there eating while the rest of your team is suiting up and talking about the game plan.

    I always get stomach aches before the game because I get really nervous so I don't eat much. Usually just an energy bar or an energy shake and then when I step onto the court my adrenaline takes over and I feel fine.

    I would never eat before a game, it'd just make me slower and lazier for some reason. I'd pig out afterwards tho.

    i dont know how anyone can eat before games. i get really nervous and if i eat anything it makes me feel like throwing up. of course when i get on the court and play for like 2 or 3 minutes or so, ill be good. its just before the games that bugs me
