    PS. I FORGOT TO PUT AN [R] ON THREAD TOPIC!

    I don't know if we should be happy or just ashamed at how bad the East is, seeing as how we just made it into third place :eek: Two points clear of 4th, and two points shy of 2nd. Wow.

    And all this BEFORE Bruce gets here.

    [result]Yeah. We gained two points on everyone except KC, whom we gained three points on. That's about as good a week as you can get.[/result]

    And the last of the three teams, becouse more game played or for goal ave. or more losts game than the others, now we are the only one in third place

    What's the point of an [R] when the content of the thread title implies the result? Might as well leave the [R] off.

    Its just Bigsoccer policy. Just try to remember to add an [R] when discussing game results. Thanks.

    Re: Say hello to third place!

    Yeah, but your original post states that we just made it to third. Third is third, whether you're tied for it or not.

    Re: Say hello to third place!

    But what about the fact that the title implicitly gives the result? An [R] afterwards then becomes meaningless. For example:

    "Italians Go Wild Celebrating [R]"

    Actually because of the tiebreakers the Red Bull were not in third. Now they are; so they moved up.

    Good try though.

    Re: Say hello to third place!

    I kinda agree but have always been told when results are mentioned in the thread put an [R] in the thread's title. Now your question might be a good one for the customer service forum.

    My personal favorite is:

    Red Bulls Beat KC 1-0 [R].

    :D

    Re: Say hello to third place!

    MLS regular season is just too demanding, man....

    imagine if a player per club ever left for the NT for say 3 weeks--- it might take one or two more games to get back into the playoff picture after playing horrible for the past 3 months..... oh, wait, that's another topic... ;)
