One more try. This time I requested desktop site.

Still not working. I guess it cannot be done on an iPhone?

Maybe the problem is I use the YouTube mobile app. I hit share to copy the URL. Maybe if I put it in chrome first?

Just looking at your links, it definitely has something to do with your URL's. They are shortened. Your show "youtube.be" when the links we normally post are "youtube.com". I think you are right that it probably has something to do with you using mobile or some setting in your mobile app that is automatically converting all of your links to the shortened versions and real gm's code must not be able to automatically embed those shortened links.

So if you want to embed youtube videos, you probably have to get the full URL, not the "youtube.be" URL, and past that into the message board. Even the "m.youtube.com" URL you posted doesn't seem to work, looks like it has to be a straight-up "youtube.com" URL.

Jaren Jackson Jr. was getting essentially whatever he wanted heading into halftime. It led Anthony Edwards to beg for the matchup late in the game to try and stop a player that was taking it to the Wolves in every way.

It ended up being successful, to say the least.

“[Ant] took the Jackson matchup and basically shut the water off,” Minnesota Head Coach Chris Finch said afterward.

Jackson’s 19 points at halftime came from an abundance of space on the floor. He had room to operate at the elbows and use his speed to get to the rim, and closeouts were not happening on the part of the Wolves. He found himself getting Gobert in tough spots, and his touch around the rim seemed to be flawless.

Edwards ended up taking much of it away. He played Jackson physically and cut down the amount of space in front of him. It was enough for Finch to mention after the game that Ant is the most physical on-ball defender the Wolves have at their disposal for late-game situations like Wednesday presented; and it helped them on the other end as well.

I listened to Finch at the end of the game. The reporter was trying to get Finch to call Ant his best on ball defender which of course would have been slighting McDaniels. Finch didn't fall for it.


The truth of the matter is that ANT IS the best on ball defender on the team. I wouldn't hesitate to hurt McD's feelings a bit by saying it. McD needs to hear it. McD needs to get his foul problems under control. He doesn't help us much with 4 fouls in the 2nd qtr from the bench.

Ant was magnificent late in that game.

Randy Bachman is such a rock star. Founder of The Guess Who and Bachman/Turner Overdrive.
He's not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. You can't make this up.


Back in the day the "Guess Who" with Burton Cummings and Randy Bachman were one of my favorite bands.

It scares me a bit to think about how long ago that was though. :D

BTW, I didn't know Bachman wasn't in the R&R hall of fame. I wonder if Cummings is.

The only work around I can think of is to just post the link and have someone on a pc open it, copy it, and embed it, (if they feel like it of course.) Beyond that, I will just post links and sentence or two telling you what is in them.

Use full editor…

Take link like this:
https://m.youtube.com/watch?si=xvddgdDxgR8iFfFW&v=NCIUf8eYPqA&feature=youtu.be

Copy only the part between v= and &feature
In this example that is: NCIUf8eYPqA

You the YouTube tags and paste it between the tags.
Make sure there are no spaces. [tag]code[/tag]

You should get this:



Who ever manages this site should be able to parse that data with some simple php code.

I don't think Burton would make it on his solo work so since The Guess Who isn't in neither is Burton. Randy has 2 bands deserving of being in.

The Guess Who should be in just based on their Scooby Doo contributions alone. :)

The Guess Who is sensational. Share the Land and No Sugar Tonight are my favorites.
