URL tags not working the way they used to.
 
A couple times now I have tried the old {url=http://espn.go.com/action/global_rallycross_championship/2012/}Schedule{/url} and instead of being in-line text it tries to turn it into a imbedded video or something like this.

http://espn.go.com/action/global_rallycross_championship/2012/
OK, it is fine in this thread, but not in this one. Weird.

Even weirder, it was fine in preview in this thread, and then broke when submitted.

And it changed the text to the linked page title. It was just "Schedule" when I typed it.

We have a plugin that tries to recognize certain URLs for certain sites to turn them into embedded content. ESPN is one of those sites.

Normally, this works good for YouTube links and the like, but not so good for less common sites. I try to go and disable the feature for sites that don't work well (Amazon, Wikipedia, etc) but it's hard to keep up on.
