When a tweet is talking about “watch this” or “check this out” or something else similar, it seems to imply there should be a link to something… but there is no link. Or at least not for me.
Anybody else have this problem?
I got you, FB

Watch the story here about how one Lake Charles teen got a surprise visit from @T_Porter22 bit.ly/xfxW56
The part that contains a link to the video or picture is the bolded part at the very end – starts with “bit” in this case…and you have to be careful to only click on the “bit” part to go to the site for the pic/video
…and some start with “twitpic”

Chases Daniel used an actual link to youtube…

Classic! This is HILARIOUS! RT @Lavi112: @ChaseDaniel check this out! youtube.com/watch?v=-vMfqo…
Now what may have stumped you on this one is that his tweet ended with the youtube link, but had an ellipse at the very end “…” meaning that the tweet is incomplete, so clicking on that will not work since the youtube link is incomplete – you have to go to the actual original tweet on his page to get the full youtube link.
Hope that helps…

Yes, it would by very helpful… IF those links appeared on my screen. Here’s a screenshot that shows what I see:
Similarly, I can no longer see the “rec” link (or several other related ones) for a fanshot anymore:
Unfortunately, I don’t have full video screen-capture ability on this computer, or I could show you how the fanshot links actually appear at page load and then immediately disappear. It’s weird.
Oh and then there’s the way the “rec” link turns into “Flag” instead of “unrec” when you click it for many of us…
Something is obviously screwed up in the SBN code. It either isn’t properly supporting Firefox (which is insane if so) or there’s something about my account it doesn’t like…
Dave, any chance you could ask the SBN team what the hell is going on?
Oh crap… I finally figured it out. It was my fault, not SBN. I have the PageTweak add-on and it was blocking social media. And I would like it if it would block the BUTTONS… but not when it rips the links out too. That’s just stupid. Especially when it rips out the fanshot REC button as well, which has exactly zero to do with social media!
Well at least now I know what the problem is.

did the o-line let Cam take shots?
It’s possible that, even if they did let him take shots, that it wasn’t personal. Who wants to get hurt in a pro bowl game?
The problem in the world today is communication. Too much communication. - Homer Simpson
I didn't see any pass rush whatsoever in the little bit of time I watched. It seemed the linemen just stood up and walked around each other
Just because we have chiseled abs and stunning features, it doesn't mean that we too can't not die in a freak gasoline fight accident.
