User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8b3) Gecko/20050707 Firefox/1.0+

When clicking links in the main flash content (has a picture, and a headline
under it near the middle-top of the page), the pop-up blocker catches pop-ups
triggered by some of the links and blocks them.

For example, in the URL given, click on the headline (they'll be a link in
Flash, shouldn't matter if the headline changes or not as it always seems to
open a pop-up), and notice that the pop-up blocker will catch it and notify of a
blocked pop-up.

Screenshot will be given to show what to click on to show this behavior.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Go to URL given
2.Click on the headline (it'll change throughout the day)
3.

Actual Results:  
Pop-up blocker blocks the user-triggered pop-up.

Expected Results:  
Allowed the pop-up with no problems.

Attachment: shows where links are to click for pop-ups

Just follow the arrows. The headlines will most certainly not be the same as
the one you'll see when you go there, and the Gameday link may not be there if
you go when no games are being played. This just shows you what can be clicked
to trigger the pop-ups that are blocked.

Not working for me, I can open the links, the links works correctly.

the links described here, don't open popups.  they open new flash content in the
flash area or open new content in the browser.  Looks good to me.
