Me too. Other sketchy ads as well.

Happened to me reading team of the week piece on chrome for ios today.

thanks - I need to figure that out - shouldn't be happening. Ads are normal - sketchy ones should not be. Unless all you people are just sketchy yourselves.

I can't really seem to replicate this. I've clicked all over.  I get the google ad on top and side. And the ad at the bottom (Which is not google and is sometimes a problem) - is just an ad for Avatar or Star Trek or something.  But nothing crazy.  Will keep trying. But if anyone has any other info, feel free to pass along.

I've asked our whole staff to click around and see if they see anything bad. No one else can replicate it either. I've not gotten any other emails or user complaints about it either. Maybe you are all infected by the BearLover virus? I've heard it's nasty.

But seriously, if anyone can figure out any other info to help me fix it, let me know. You can email me at adamw@collegehockeynews.com

It's not an ad that we're clicking, at least not for me, it's a reroute. Like when you go on a shady ass site and it sends you through six websites before telling you to spin a wheel for a thousand bucks.

If I get it again, I'll let you know.

I wasn't suggesting it's an ad you're clicking. But there are ads out there that hijack sites simply when the page loads. I've never seen it on CHN and no one else has ever said anything - but I know they exist - and if so, it would come from our 3rd party ad server - or from a massive hack.  Both of which I'd need to fix - which is impossible to do without seeing it.

Are we sure Dartmouth won?  Seems to be stuck with :02 to go.

Trotsky

Dartmouth did win.

Overall home record of the top 4 ECAC teams is now 35-3-2.
