Creating a Table
-
I am creating a blog for the athletic conference that I coach in. The purpose of the blog is to keep a running Top 10 list for track and field results in all events for boys and girls. I would like to utilize a table format to display the Top 10, and I have been able to create tables using basic HTML code, however it is really inefficient and cumbersome to update and edit the tables as results change during the season. I toyed with using the ‘numbered list’ option, and I will do that if I need to, but I like the look of a table layout better. Is there a theme or an option I can implement that allows me to create a table that is easy and efficient to update/edit?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

You can create a spreadsheet with Google Sheets and embed in your post. Every time you make a change in the spreadsheet it will automatically show in your blog.
Here are the instructions:

Note that if you use Windows then Windows Live Writer it has a tablemaker > http://en.support.wordpress.com/xml-rpc/windows-live-writer/ Firefox users on Windows machines may need to clear the browser cache with ctrl+shift+del in order to get Firefox to recognize the formatting. https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/posting-of-word-files-with-tables?replies=6
