Ad blockers basically try to match patterns to try and figure out what's an ad and what's content you want to see. They are are usually quite accurate, but they can "break" different web sites. hokiesports.com is particularly bad about being broken -- they have some key content (like their menus) that may be served up by the same web servers that also serve up ads.

I tried just now with my ad blocker enabled and am seeing problems. That software usually lets you disable blocking for specific sites, and I found that hokiesports does work OK if I disabled blocking.
