    This has happened to me a few times on this site now. The first couple times I thought I hecked up and didn't bother to mention it, but now I am sure it wasn't me and so I'm bringing it up. I opened up the "TO/Witten altercation" thread and the thread started to come up and then all of a sudden took me to another website, "fling.com", before I had clicked on anything. I mean, the popup ads when I log on are one thing, but to just take me, unsolicited and unexpectedly to an entire other site, WTF is up with that? The other two times, couldn't tell you what website it was for, as I said, I just assumed I had clicked some ad (even though I thought I hadn't) and it came up. This time, however, I am 100% sure GIF just sent me to another website without my consent.

    SO what's going on?

    Also, if you're using a school computer then scroll down to the bottom of the page and flick the "default style" and scroll to Gridiron-Mobile and no pics show up.

    Dude, stop whoring in threads not designed for it please and thank you.

    I haven't been taken to another site, but my pop-up blocker has been working more than normal here lately. I don't know what the pop-ups are since I don't see them.
