Did you really make the finals?


More on quotation marks. They should only be used when QUOTING something. This means they should be used when you're using someone else's exact words.

The quotation marks on this trophy are unnecessary because nothing is being quoted. The quote marks actually make the trophy look stupid because they imply that the winner was not really a finalist. I guess it could be a trophy presented to someone who played a tennis player in a show.
