@El Kabong you can also hit the x in the corner of the ad and it will close
Yes, but a new one is back every time I go to a new page or refresh the page.

The thing I find the most frustrating is when I click to make a new post, and an infolinks popup appears in the lower left corner right where I'm trying to type, so I have to stop and close the popup then go back to typing. If the thing could appear in the lower right corner, that would help.

Oh wow.

Eagles score here and this game is over unless Purdy gets shot up.
Eagles get a TD here, the game is over no matter who is playing QB. Eagle pass rush will be relentless up 14.

I don't think Hurts has thrown a single pass on time. Not sure if it's Hurts, pressure, coverage or a combo. Eagles pass attack looks discombobulated.
Hurts’ mechanics are awful. Even the promotional of the game shows such an awful pass from Hurts from an awful QB stance. If he has to go to pocket passing it is lights out.

Do you like this site more than you hate infolinks? It's keeping it afloat right now.

Regardless, you can ask your browser to block the ads, even on your phone.
I understand that.

Is there any way to control where the popups show up?
They should only appear at the very bottom of the screen.

Yes, but sometimes it's lower left corner, and sometimes it's in the bottom center.

If you scroll up the text box just a little the ad isn’t in the way. I’m sorry I’m sure it can be a pain.

Hurts is still hurt.

Refs have directed this game to this score.

I see why that QB was on 14 different teams.

Oh man.
Unforced. Mental error took his eyes off it.

Brutal for their defense who fought so hard

Sorry, I tried to set it up so that it's as unobtrusive as possible. Like, my thought was to make it so people don't even notice it..

Hey. I thought any QB could look great in the 49ers system. No?

Purdy must be an exceptional QB then. Let's hope he's not another Brady.

49ers aren't winning this game unless they start getting the football to Kittle down the seams unlike what Jimmy Johnson said.

Eagles defense is keying on McCaffery

Niners are running out of time.

And QBs.

This is gonna be 35-7 by the time the 4th quarter rolls around.

Eagles pass rush smells blood in the water.

I expect the AFC to win the SB which is what I thought before the season started

Damn, if Shanahan can win the NFCCG today with 2 QBs knocked out and an injured McCaffrrey as the emergency QB, he is the greatest offensive coach of all time.

If Shanahan pulls this off he is the greatest leader of men since 16th century Admiral Yi-Sun Shin.

Sorry, I just watched Hansan Rising Dragon last night.

Especially favoring the AFC if the SF defense gets knocked out this week. Philly's D is good but SF could have been a special matchup.
