Hello again,

I decided to write a new suggestion. It is a very good one for myself but I am not sure about the other guys - you can share your opinion if you decide.

The main idea is - to make it possible for every user to choose if HOME or AWAY team to be shown first. I mean - now things are a lttle bit American and NBA type. First the away team is shown and then the home team. The problem is that all the matches and results I see beyond BuzzerBeater are the opposite type - first the home team is shown and then the away team. I believe it is the same everywhere in Europe at least but I am not 100% sure.

Every time I see the program I think when my team is shown in the left that I have home match. But it is not home, it is away. And since all the other matches I am interested in beyond BB are the opposite, it is a little bit frustrating. My brain has to pay attention and to think especially if I play home or away.

So, I will be happy every user to have the option and choose for himself if Home or Away team to be shown first in the Program menu, in Matches etc.

Thanks for the support on this topic :)

I also don't know if it is easy to happen or not. But if not next season, I hope the season after it can be done. Next season is probably too soon to make such a change.

Every time I expect more opinions and to see what other guys think ...but I rest with my expectations only. Maybe admins and developers have the feeling that only I want such a change :))) Anyway, I believe many users outside USA could benefit from this one.

I'm used to the NBA style of viewing home and away. But I don't see why this shouldn't be implemented - it should be a good quality of life improvement for those who prefer it the other way around. Hope this gets implemented!

Yes, I know in NBA it's the opposite style (away-home) but for my shame I don't watch closely NBA :) I am watching more football/soccer matches and mostly in Europe and it is always home-away style. In Bulgaria it is also home-away. I am playing other managers which are football/soccer managers and there it is also home-away. Only here in this game it is away-home ....and because it is only here, I have to think always it is the opposite.

So, for me this simple change will make everything much more comfortable and natural when I browse around matches :) At least I myself will browse matches with more pleasure since I feel it natural and got used to it.

Also, in my imagination it can happen with a button on the Schedule/Program/Matches page (I am not 100% sure how it was exactly in English page, in Bulgarian it is Program now). Just above the matches I see Season 60 at left and Season 60 at right which is scroll down menu. I think between both Season 60 in the middle, Developers can put 2 buttons which people can use to change the style the way they want it. The both buttons can be something like:
[H/A] and [A/H]
And when you click on one of this buttons and choose your style, you make the settings for all the matches you are browsing in BuzzerBeater, included National team matches etc.

This buttons can also happen in Settings menu but I think it will be more reasonable to be at Schedule/Program/Matches place ;)

Ok, you are maybe right about that. But I am not sure if people will see the option in Settings if they don't read the news (not everybody reads the news, I started reading when I started to give suggestions)...and in Schedule it will be visible and easy to operate for sure :) Maybe it is better 1 season to be on Schedule and in Settings both ...and after 1 season when people know about this option - to stay only in Settings. But you are right long-term it is better to be in Settings only since it is not logical to change it all the time ;)

I'm sure if it matters to them they would try to look for it.

I agree with this suggestion.
I am confused too if I am in home or not.
