formatting date from mysql

[MasonAtom]

I'm a newbie in regards to php/mysql. I run a fan-based website that follows a college basketball team and I use a mysql database to compile player and team stats.

I don't like the way that dates are stored in mysql (yyyy-mm-dd). I would like to display the game dates on my website in a different format.

For example - I would like to display 2003-11-11 as Nov 11, 2003 Any hints on how to do this?

Use php's date() function to format it, or mysql's date_format
