Opinions Needed......Engine Starting issue.

Ok guys, this just happened tonight. I left work going to my grandmothers, Car ran like a champ. Get over there visit for a few and when I go to leave my 7 decides not to start. Anyway she acted as if she wanted to, but I killed the battery in the process. So I called a buddy over and had him push me, I popped the clutch and she came to life. Let her idle for a few, shut it off. And she fired back up. This is buggin the **** out of me as this has happened once before. Any thought or ideas would be great.

Never thought of it as a flooding issue. Reason why is that when it happened the last time it turned out to be the ground wire on the back of the motor. But from what I have gathered from you guys and from some other post, Flooding is a common issue. Thanks for the info.....
