No, and people who do are usually idiots.

I know that some people in the South have a tendency to refer to most carbonated soft drinks/sodas/colas as 'Coke' (not dealing specifically with Coca-Cola).
I've lived in the South for 50 years and have never known anyone that did this. If I ask someone if they want a Cole, it's because Pepsi sucks and Coke is what I have in the house.
And I refer to Gatorade as Gatorade and Powerade as crap.

never thought about it
I don't buy a lot of sports drinks
More likely just say I'm getting something to drink
I guess the programming to advertise for corporations didn't take well on me...

could be regional
I heard the OP's reference back in the 80's from a girl who visited texas, not sure where...said the same thing, that no matter what it was, it was a "coke"...never been there myself...I don't think it matters a whole lot either way...

Yes. I usually call any colored sports drink Gatorade.
