You definately want to drink a sports drink. When you sweat you lose more than water. You lose electrolytes that need to be replaced. If you drink just water you can get water toxicity, which can actually kill you. Doesn't happen that often and you have to drink a lot of water to do that.
A drink with electrolytes will definately help you more than just plain water. Much healthier when you are sweating a lot.

Glucose permits water to be more rapidly absorbed into tissues. In addition, electrolytes like soium and potassium can be lost during intense sweating. Sports drinks have alot of glucose and electrolytes to in the water to help facilitate rapid rehydration. While this is effective, it is most effective during INTENSE sport competition where you are sweating intensely. If you drink sports drinks during a moderate work out, the glucose may just upset your stomach, and over time, the added calories from the sugar will make you fat. So if you are professional athlete or competitor who trains extensilvely, then go with the sports drink. Otherwise, I'd stick with plain old water.

If the duration of the activity for an individual athlete is fairly continuous for 1 hour or longer, a sports drink is the better replacement fluid. However, if the activity lasts less than 1 hour, water is the best option. In either case, an athlete should have about 6-8 ounces of fluid replacement every 30 minutes during strenuous, continuous activity.

i'd stick with Water.
at least long-term wise it has NO side-effect(s). on the contrary the more you drink the better. as for sports drinks, it is almost 90% artificial made.
