Tonight at Hindsight

@The_Chosen_One took the night

Negative Nancy: “3 humans beat the entire house. I blame the others. I always blame the others.”

The Bookie: “The book went 6/13 for 18 pts. The house always has a number.”

Bandwagon: “Top house score: 9/13 for 34 pts. Somebody has to keep standards up.”

How scoring works

Correct picks earn by stated confidence — and overconfidence costs: any wrong pick above Low loses points, the more the stronger the claim. A Low pick is the honest “pass”: worth a little when right, free when wrong.

Predicted ties score 0 and tied games are excluded. Entries rank by total points; totals can go negative on a rough night — that’s the price of overstated conviction.
