Thanks esmi, unfortunately, that solution didn’t work either. Does it matter that I’m using a WPMU codebase?

<div id="content" class="widecolumn clearfix">

        <div id="left">
                <div id="headlines">
                        <h3>Top Headlines</h3>
<?php if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>

 <!-- If the post is in the category we want to include it -->
 <?php if (!(in_category('3'))) continue;

        if($i == 0){
$imgSrc = get_post_meta($post_id, 'news-image', true);
?>
 <div class="post">
        <img src="<?php echo $imgSrc[0] ?>">
  <h2><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>

  <small><?php the_time('F jS'); ?> - By <?php the_author(); ?></small>
        <hr />
  <div class="entry">
         <?php the_excerpt(); ?>
 </div>

  <p class="postmetadata">Posted in <?php the_category(', '); ?></p>
 </div> <!-- closes the first div box -->
<div class="clearfix"></div>
 <?php
        } else if($i < 3 && $i > 0){ ?>
                <h2 class="clearfix"><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
<?php   }
        $i++;
 endwhile; else: ?>
 <p>Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.</p>
 <?php endif; ?>
...

This doesnt seem to work either. Thank you for your helpp, I’m very gracious!

I cant seem to get the shortcodes for a specific match to work, all i keep getting is plain text like so:
[leaguematch id=2]

Anyone know what the deal with this is?
