Garett,

Table for layout are generally considered bad but for data when data
is tabular you SHOULD be using a table.

Using divs, lists or other markup will only cloud the actual meaning
of the information you're presenting and depending on the browser the
visitor is using you could very well render the information
unusable.

Table were meant for tabular data... so if you have tabular data use
them.

Btw, there are multiple tags dealing with tables which you will want
to look into (I mean part the TABLE, TR and TD).  look into the THEAD,
TBODY, TFOOT, TH (for headings, to separate titles from data).
