At first I thought it was a random error, but I’ve noticed several Manhunt ads on Sports Illustrated’s Web site over the last few weeks. Michael MacDonald at Manhunt said it’s not a direct buy with Time Warner, but it’s an ad they’ve placed through Dedicated Media.

Either way, I think it's cool that a gay dating/sex site is showing up on Sports Illustrated. Several years ago I remember being told that some advertisers might not advertise on Outsports if we accepted Manhunt ads. Oh how times have changed. See the screen captures after the jump.
